Hello again from Petra Rocks My World! I want to congratulate the two winners of the Petra Rocks My World! email newsletter sign-up contest: Plinio Sousa won the Revival CD and DVD; and Karen Lyons won the John Lawry "Media Alert" album. Thanks to everyone who participated!

There's lots of exciting stuff happening, both at the website and for the band. One important project for PRMW is just beginning, and I need your help: It's a project to translate the site into multiple languages. You'll learn more about why I want to do this and how you can help in the "Site Update" section of this newsletter.

Until next time,
     —Josh

P.S. -- Please forward this newsletter to your friends so they can learn what's new in the world of Petra!

Petra news

Petra recently played a show in Kirksville, MO, which I attended. The band really rocked and played quite a long set. After the show I talked briefly with John Schlitt about the upcoming Night of Joy performances, as well as the next album.

John said the band had been practicing with Bob Hartman, who will perform with them at Night of Joy. John predicted that Petra's two performances at Night of Joy would rock hard. "You saw how we played tonight," he said. "Imagine how good it will be with two amazing guitar players instead of one." Night of Joy is this weekend, Sept. 7 and 8.

Site update

I need YOUR help as Petra Rocks My World! begins to fulfill a dream I've had for a long time.

It's not an accident that I call the website "Petra Rocks My WORLD!" -- Petra really does have fans in every country. For several years, now, I have wanted to translate my site into different languages so it can be more of a blessing to people who don't understand English, and so it can help increase Petra's ministry. I've made some changes in recent months to prepare for this project, and now I am ready to begin.

Here's the plan: I want to focus on translating into three languages first: Spanish, Portuguese, and German. These are the three most common languages (besides English) of visitors to my site.

Are you able to translate any of these three languages into English? If so, please contact me. We can discuss how you can help.

If you are interested in helping to translate PRMW into some other language, please contact me, also.
