John L. Cooper / Skillet
Petra was the first band I ever loved. Not only did they rock, but they taught me scripture, encouraged me to stand up for Jesus, and helped fan my faith into a flame. They were trailblazers, pioneers, missionaries, evangelists and rockers like me are standing on their shoulders.
- John L Cooper / Skillet
John Elefante / formerly of Kansas
Petra was much deeper than just a Christian rock band. I slowly realized after I worked with them throughout the years, that their ministry was the epicenter of what they did, and I never knew that Music could have that kind of effect on peoples lives. It truly was a life-changing experience for me.
- John Elefante
Kevin Young / Disciple
My life was forever changed the day I heard Petra. They helped shape me lyrically, musically, and most important of all spiritually. They have been the soundtrack of my life. Their music was a constant companion to me as I went to Jesus in worship, in prayer, in desperation, and in friendship and love. This band is one of Gods greatest gifts to me.
- Kevin Young / Disciple

3) Everyone was blessed and entertained by the testimonies and anniversary shout outs that have been sent on social media and played at the concert between sets. We are continuing to collect these for future concerts and projects (stay tuned and watch your email and social media information on an upcoming 50th anniversary online event / dvd!)

4) Finally, many of you saw the donation buckets for the Nigeria Church Project (and many of you gave! Thank you so much) NOT ASHAMED, Song Angel Promotions and their fans have been building and supporting a church in the jungle of Nigeria. The church is pastored by the father of the young man that produces our lyric videos (the ones you saw on the screen behind us while we were playing) We have helped build this church from 4 walls with no roof to a place where the people of the village can come worship and learn about our Lord and Savior, Jesus! If you did not have the opportunity to donate (or would like to donate more) you would be joining us in an awesome work for the Lord and we know you will be blessed for it!
