Phil Callaway


Funny, entertaining, thought provoking, honest, relevant, challenging,.....oh and did we mention Very Funny?These are just a few of the words to describe humourist Phil Callaway's "performance" at the Upper Room Mission's 2008 Fundraising Event held on Thursday October 9th. Those in attendance were held captive by his humorous real life stories, and challenged to examine what our responsibility is to those in need around us.Thank-you Phil for the deep lessons you deposited into us through the use of humor and for your openness and transparency. Thank you Mark Wensley for the beautiful music. Those of you who attended the sold out event, we thank-you for your support and the encouragement each of you are to the Mission.
We appreciate you more than may know!
