Here's our situation. We have talked with our producer, and he has given us our estimate of covering all costs for everything we'll need to pay for this summer. I.E. (paying mixing engineers, paying mastering engineers, renting the professional studio space in Nashville, production, distribution, artwork, shipping, flights and hotels) All this and everything else that comes our way is going to be 34K.
I know that sounds like a ton of money, and it truly is when applied to a small group of 20 year-olds, but here is the reason I titled this "God's Hands".
We have to raise this money through our Partnership/Sponsorship Program (website http://www.pdpsupport.com/skyline/ and physical brochures) in order for any of this to possibly be accomplished.
There are lots of benefits to helping us out, also. Check out the site above to read more about what you can receive and achieve through your giving.
We've been on our own for over a year and God has literally provided EVERYTHING we've needed to survive in this business. Even if it was the minimum, He still provided it. So I look at it this way. Whatever we are able to raise through your help in this Program, is going to be enough to accomplish whatever God has planned for us. But we can't be shy about this either. We really do need your help. Some business owners have made donations on their own. Some small families have given smaller one-time donations. Some churches have banded together to have us play a concert, and then have given us a collected love offering from the entire church at the end as their donation. Whatever you feel God leading you to do in this situation is enough.
This money is going to help us take our message and spread it outside of our local area and reach ears across the country and even across nations through radio play and digital media. We truly cannot do this alone anymore. So any help from our listeners, friends, and families will be amazing and an answer to prayer, as well as spreading our music and discussing this opportunity with others who are unfamiliar with us.
Thank you so much for your time and all your encouragement.
We literally cannot do this without you.
Much love,
Nathan Lauderdale -SC

Partnership/Sponsorship Program
Skyline Circle has been an ongoing faith based
ministry shared within the small circle of three
friends. We have come a long way on our
own, and in order to continually move forward
and reach more people, we are now giving
everyone an opportunity to partner with us in
our ministry through our new Ministry Partner
Program.
Proceeds from your partnership with Skyline
Circle will help the us cover the expenses of
CD production and radio play to spread our
ministry message beyond our local area. God
has been providing our needs for over a year
now in every way imaginable. And now we
are trying to expand our ministry by asking our
friends and family to partner with us
so that more people can receive the message
about how the God of the universe works in
our everyday lives.
This link explains everything including what donors receive for they're contributions. CHECK IT OUT :)

We will be heading to Talihina Ok tomorrow for a youth retreat show. We are going to play a 12 song set and hopefully share our hearts with the kids there. We are excited to start playing again!
We hope to see you soon in where ever we are close to you, be it Enid, Talihina, or somewhere in between!
