If you are a Petra Fan and you know somebody else who is too, spread the word and be part of this Project.

 

Hello there, my dear friends and brothers and sisters in Christ. We want to invite all Petra Fans to respond this convocation.

 

Alter several years listening Petra’s music and received many God’s blessings through this band, we have thought to return a little of all we have received.  I think we all can say something we learned from this music.

 

That’s why we have planned to make a video homage for this band y we wish something special to be made.  This is so special that we invite you to participate.  In this convocation you won’t be chosen but you simply must to respond and that’s all you need to be part of this project.

 

Why a video tribute for the band?  Because watching the last Petra DVD titled Revival, we notice John saying he once thought nobody care about Petra and everybody was looking for another options. Thinking about this thought, we decide to make this video to be sent to the band so they can see many people really care about their music.  There are many people who have received too much and that there hasn’t been any way to thank that.  So, for us, and for you, it is important the band know we care their music. Do you agree?

 

This is a simple convocation.  The video will be made during a few following months and it will be finished on September 2005, to be sent to the band the early days of October.  This is to have enough time to receive all fans contributions.

 

All right then, What is this contribution about? It’s simple:

 

Everybody must to send your answer to the following two questions:

 

1. What have given God to you through Petra’s music?
2. From all Christian musical options ¿Why do you prefer Petra?

 

The answers to these questions must to be sent to an email, in case they are written, or to a physical address in Mexico, en case they are video answers, and all must include your name (first and last), the city where you live and the country.
