Generation Jesus
Generation Jesus will perform
at the Morrow County Fair on
Saturday, Aug. 21, from 3:30-
4:30 p.m.
Generation Jesus is a Christian
alternative rock group performed
by Hermiston youth. Lead
vocal/keyboard is Mike Moore;
lead guitar is Joey Konty; bass
guitar is Mike Ritzer; and on
drums is Matt Starkey.
Generation Jesus is a group of
high school students from
Hermiston who play alternative
rock music and have performed
for many area events. They lead
the praise and worship for
Campus Life of Hermiston and
are involved in their own
churches as well. They have
performed for youth rallies and
camps throughout the Northwest
including some in Tri-Cities.
They are performing on the main
stage at this year's Umatilla
County Fair. The group writes
their own music and lyrics, but
also plays some familiar songs.
The name Generation Jesus
was chosen because they wanted
to show that they are a new
generation for Jesus, said a
group spokesperson.
