Celebrating 10 years of the LifeLight Music Festival

For a decade, Christian music fans have been flocking to Sioux Falls, S.D., to celebrate Christ at the LifeLight Music Festival. The festival's origins lie in a mission trip to Mexico taken by founders Alan and Vicki Greene:
'It really started because my wife and I went on a missions trip with a group of other people from here. We went down to Mexico and God spoke to us.' (KELO-TV)

Five years ago, the Greenes quit their jobs to take on LifeLight full time, and now their mission has evolved to more than the festival. They have organized mission trips, brought food to countries in Africa, and organized student-led clubs in high schools and middle schools.
