Hey Friends,
Friday, we had a fun day at the Ark Encounter. It was day 39 of the 40 Days Christian Music Festival. We had visited the Ark in 2022, but not during the Music Festival.
I was so thrilled we could make it there this year. Sadly, my friend Emmalee had the day off from her job at the Ark. She definitely deserves a day off!
It was wonderful to see The Isaacs in concert! It was our first time seeing them in 2026. I was long overdue for my Isaacs fix! More on that in a moment.
Before the concert, we went through the Ark. It is an amazing place. It is always refreshing to see something dedicated to the Bible. They don't shy away from the gospel message of Christ! It is always a busy place.
The whole place is beautiful. We did not take time to enjoy the outside parts. It was extremely hot!
We did snap some pictures outside.
After we explored for a couple of hours, we went back to the Answers Center for the concert. While waiting for the doors to open to the auditorium, we got food from the cafe in the lobby. I must say the chicken salad croissant was yummy! I highly recommend the chocolate caramel cheesecake cup!
Soon it was time to find our seats. We were seated around 3:20.
We had time to catch up with our friend, Kelsey. It was so good to see Kelsey and Samuel! She used to be a nanny for Sonya Isaacs.
We had a little pre-concert. The trio Testimony sang 2 songs. They did very good.
Rick Francis of Singing News Magazine was representing the magazine.
Ray Flynn of Abraham Productions. They promote of the gospel message in word and song.
We extremely enjoyed True Song the resident group at the Ark Encounter! They got the main event kicked off at 4:00.
HighRoad was also singing. That was a special treat. They are very talented! I have listened to their music for several years, but never seen them live.
They also have a message each evening. Friday’s sermon was from Pastor Tyler Gauldin.
Over 1,600 people were saved during the 40 days this year. 32 people said they were saved Friday!
Then it was time for the best part of the night, the Isaacs! Wow oh wow from the start of “Get On Board” to the ending of “It Is Well With My Soul”, and all the points in between, I was smiling.
Their talent and ability to play and sing flawlessly is amazing! It never gets old! I am always glad to experience The Isaacs live! I did not want it to end.
It was great to see Faith! I am glad we got to visit for a minute.
Of course, I got to see Ben! That makes any day better!
We had a fantastic day. I am so glad we got to see Aunt Lily, Ben, Sonya, Becky, Levi and Greg Ritchie. We love you all! I will savor awesome moments from this day for a long time. Hopefully we will cross paths again before to long!
That wraps up this visit to The Ark Enconter in Williamstown, Kentucky. Thank you for reading. See you tomorrow.
