WHAT WE'RE ABOUT
enthusiastic praise
Our sole purpose is to be the band that's not the band. Our goal is to make just as much of an impact, if not more, off the stage as we do on. We want the students to know that we love them, because we truly do. We want to help lead them to Christ by sharing personal testimonies or simply showing them the love of Christ by being there for them to talk to.
We love being part of events where these "off stage" experiences are possible. Our favorite events are Disciple Now weekends so we can have 3 days to get into the students lives.
We pray we can be good examples for these students and that God's light would shine through us so we can help these students in any way they need. We pray He gives us the words to say as well as the people to come in contact with.
All We Are is a group of 6 individual dreamers who have united with one common dream: to be the bridge that helps lead students to Jesus Christ. Our avenue to the students is through music. We are an extol worship band. God has blessed us with the gift of being musicians and we want to use those gifts to further His Kingdom.
We cover contemporary praise and worship songs from artist such as: Hillsong United, David Crowder Band, Gungor, Kristian Stanfill, and more. We also write our own worship songs in hopes to express to God what He means to us.
"Praise Him with the timberl and dance: praise Him with the stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him upon the loud cymbals: praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the LORD." and Ephesians 5:19 commands us, "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord."
BELIEFS
Well, we tried and we just can't seem to fit God into a single website tab.
All we can say, is that it's all about Jesus! He truly is the ONLY answer and the only reason we do what we do. We want to point people to Him.
AWAM at Grace Church Camp 2011
DATES "I've had the privilege of traveling around to so many places to speak to kids and it has been a while since I've seen worship like this. If you're looking for someone to pattern your lives after, you have 6 great people right here. These guys love Jesus!"
-Youth Speaker Jon Harper
Willis, TX
"We would love to keep these guys all to ourselves, but we know God has huge plans for them. It will be amazing to see how He decides to work through them in the months and years to come."

-Youth Pastor Jerry Holmes
Chalk Hill Assembly of God: Tatum, TX
"The crew of All We Are Ministries are more than music performers. Each member truly strives to connect people to the heart of Christ through the worship they lead. It's evident on the stage...and most importantly off. I highly recommend inviting All We Are to lead your church in worship!"
-Worship Pastor Ben Abu Saada
Grace Church: Overland Park, KS
"Jacob has talked a lot about how you all weren't just the 'entertainment' for camp but you all hung around and spent time with the kids. You got to know them and are building relationships. All We Are has made such an impression on my son and many of the other kids at our church. I hope you come back to Grace Church! You are truly a BLESSING!"
-Mother of a Youth
Grace Church: Overland Park, KS
