Hot summer nights - 7:00 pm August 6th & 7th
Songs of Eli, has been peppering Midwest radio stations with their light-at-the-end-of-the-tunnel anthems. Front man, Eli, and brothers, Andre and Vadim, started as a church band-turned-rock band. Songs of Eli became a four-piece in winter, 2012, with the addition of Paul. Their single, “Brace yourself”, reminiscent of a romantic film, tells the story of a couple from the beginning of their relationship to their old age. It gives the listener redemption in external conflict, while their rock single, “Save me”, reflects internal conflict.

Jon Sanders is the Senior Pastor at Rescue Church in Flandreau, South Dakota. Jon felt the call to lead people to Christ and to preach the Gospel in junior high school. God’s call to ministry persisted, and in the summer of 2002 Jon told God he would go wherever He wanted. God began to open doors for Jon and he left his job as a career firefighter to planted the Bible Baptist Church in Flandreau, South Dakota. In 2008 the name of the Church was changed to Rescue Church, which was a natural fit for a pastor with a background in firefighting.
Today the Rescue Church has an online campus and satellite churches in Coleman, South Dakota, Deeside, Jamaica, and a new satellite opening in Garretson, South Dakota this fall. Pastor Jon is married to Jessica, and they have three children, Justin, Jennifer, and James. He enjoys hunting, fishing, and watching the Minnesota Vikings lose in his free time. Quote “My life stands as evidence that God does not call the equipped…He equips the called!” |
