LOOK WHAT THE LORD
HAS DONE
Back in Feb. of 2007, CrossCountry had
the opportunity to purchase a featherlite mobile stage trailer and a dodge ram one ton. The stage included a generator
that could power all of their equipment. Back in June of 2006, every piece of their equipment (sound) had been stolen
and the ministry had taken a hard blow from the devil. When given the opportunity, they had much prayer and eventually
were the proud owners of a 53' NASCAR hauler, which they now call their stage, and is a BIG part of the Freedom and Family
Tour, and the dodge pickup. For more on how all of this came to pass, just check out the article
in the power source magazine, which can be found on our NEWS page. Below will be pictures of the stage and vehicles
that have pulled it, in various stages, from beginning to end. Please check out the pics and stories to see what the
Lord has done over the past few years.
The pictures below are from the beginning.
The one on the left is our stage trailer with the wrap it had on it when we made the purchase. The pic on the right
is a shot of the dodge pickup that came with the trailer. This truck has been coast to coast and border to border.

Next, we decided that we needed to have it wrapped
to be a little more Freedom and Family friendly. It still had the logo from the other ministry we bought it from, so
we found a company called Trafficgrafix. We got our red white and blue patriotic wrap and were ready to hit the road, as the two pictures below show.


A few months later, Leo was in a conference/meeting
with Mike Barber Barber from Mike Barber Prison Ministry. We have worked with this prison ministry over the last 12 years, and have a great relationship with them. Mike
was telling Leo he was selling his freightliner FL60 and that we should consider buying it. Leo said we couldn't afford
it, but he would pray about it. A few days later, Mike called and said he and his wife DeAnne had been praying, and
felt the Lord was telling them to sew this truck into our ministry! What a blessing. Although it would later be
traded in for someting newer and bigger, it was a HUGE step in getting CrossCountry where they are today. Below are
a few pics of the truck this ministry blessed us with.



Even though this was a great blessing, we knew we needed something that could haul the band,
the stage, and give them a place to sleep. The opportunity came up in late 2008 to purchase a freightliner Toter home,
that could pull the stage trailer and could accomodate four guys on the road, equipped with a restroom, kitchenette, refrigerator,
shower, stove, microwave, television, and room to sleep four guys comfortably.

With us now equipped to do what we needed to
do, the only thing left was to get the toter home wrapped to match the stage. We once again went to our buddies at trafficgrafix and they did a wonderful job. Please check out the pics below.
