PRACTICAL SUPPORT

Ergo Rex operates on generous donations from people like you. We do not charge money when we put on a show because many of the places we go cannot afford to bring in a band. Oftentimes, those are the places where our kind of ministry is needed most. If you feel led to invest in what God is doing through Ergo Rex you can do so by looking through our needs that are listed here. Not all of our needs are monetary. If you have any of the skills or items that we need please contact us.

MONTHLY SUPPORTERS

The funds that come in from monthly supporters helps with our regular operating expenses. This includes things like website hosting, fixing equipment, and a hundred other little housekeeping costs.

DRUM RISER

After 5 years of heavy use our good ol' wooden drum riser is nearing the end of it's life. A new 7x5 ft. metal drum riser would allow us to make our setup more efficient.

Cost = $350 (for materials, we will build ourselves)

SPECIAL EFFECTS

This is one of our hair brained ideas to create an enviroment in our shows that takes our audience to another place. The boxes would be roughly 8ft. tall and able to light up.

Cost for 10 = $2,500

NEW ORDER OF ALBUMS

We are fresh out of copies of Breathe in the Roar. This may seem like a good thing, and it is, but we need a new printing of albums before our summer tour. Over the past 12 months we have given away aprox. 500 copies of BITR.

Cost = $1,600 (for 1,000 albums)

ONE TIME GIFT

We are always coming up with new ideas for reaching young people. By giving in this way you allow us to pursue some ideas that we might not have a budget for otherwise.

LIGHTS

Before we went on our first tour Nathan found 4 lights that we bought at a thrift store for $20. Now after years of flipping breakers and electrocuting oursleves these are still the only lights we own. A decent light setup would cost $1500.

TOUR RIG

Our dear green pickle, the 15 passenger van that Preston and Anthony's parents gave us is ready to retire. To replace it we are need a vehichle that has some living space and the ability to pull our trailer.

Cost = $10,000

RECORDING WITH NOAH

We were recently invited to go to Nashville in the Fall to record a single with Noah Henson, he is the guitarist for the Christian music legend Pillar. To do this we will need to raise $1,500 to cover the cost of recording and travel to Nashville.
