International Newsletter November 2011

Dear Friends,

“The Fest” on October 28-30 in Gainesville, Florida is one of the biggest punk rock festivals in America. The first one took place on May 24th and 25th of 2002 and was thought to have gone down in history as the drunkest and rowdiest time ever to be had in Gainesville and it has grown in size and reputation ever since.

This year the organizers expect thousands of alternative young people from all over America and hundreds more from the UK, Japan, Germany, France, Australia, and
South Africa. They describe it as “three days of carnage.”

Cosmonaught, an evangelistic Steiger band led by Ben Pierce, will be playing during the Festival on October 28 in a club and No Longer Music will be performing twice
on October 29th in a large outdoor amphitheater in the most central part of the town.

According to the festival organizers, thousands of punks and other alternative young people will be in the center of the city when we play. What a privilege to bring the love of Jesus to an event like this! We have been working hard alongside our local church partners to prepare for these concerts and I expect many to come to Jesus. I will give you a full report in the next newsletter.

On November 4-11 the Steiger board, international leaders and missionaries are coming from all over the world to seek God together and plan for the next year. In Steiger, we are overwhelmed by the doors that God has opened for us to bring the love of Jesus to many who have never had the chance to hear the truth.

In the Middle East, we have incredible opportunities as well as incredible challenges. We really need wisdom on how we should proceed in Iraq, Turkey. Lebanon and Kosovo. Because of the “Arab Spring”, we have an enormous window to preach the Gospel where its never been preached before.


Other amazing doors have opened for us in Europe, America and South America.

Pray that God guides our time together and that the plans we make are God’s plans. I don’t want to waste time on things that are not what God wants for us.

We will also be having a Steiger Conference at the Fine Line Café in Minneapolis on November 12th followed by a seminar on 10 principles that will revolutionize the Christian Music Scene that I will lead with my sons Aaron and Ben. That same evening there will be a No Longer Music Concert.

Thank you for holding up our arms in the battle.

For the Lost,
David Pierce
Steiger International
