love costs us everything=love is worth everything

About Me


Leper works and lives within the Jesus People USA community in Chicago. Amongst other things, the community runs a homeless shelter (Cornerstone Community Outreach) and is responsible for the annual Cornerstone Festivals in Florida and Illinois. Our community exists financially through several community owned businesses (Lakefront Roofing Supply, Bellyacres t shirt printing, Friar's Printing, Grrr Records, etc) and exists as an outreach to the poor, homeless, hopeless and otherwise abandoned. We are a part of the roster of Grrr Records (started directly because of the needs of the Resurrection Band) and are happy to be at home on the artist roster with the likes of The Crossing, Glen Clark and the Family Band, The Glenn Kaiser band, Aracely and now departed bands such as Headnoise, The Remnants, Crashdog and the legendary Cauzin' Effect.
As a band, we are called to minister to those individuals whom the rest of society has shunned. We are all diseased, depraved and ultimately lepers - in Christ we have hope past the mundane things of this life. We're here to befriend you, uplift you, encourage and edify you and be the best friends you perhaps never had. To the kid on the outside who doesn't fit into any of the clicks or isn't cool enough - well - you've got brothers in us! We're not here to preach at you, tell you what's right or wrong or give you dogmatic or religious confusion - we're here to tell you that you've got friends and family who won't turn their backs on you - sound like a cheesy afternoon special? Well, that's alot more heart warming then a slasher now isn't it?

so there is a new song on this space that I believe does indeed defy the normal idea of Goth music, & that’s why I wrote it. However,,,, I cant think of a name for it so,,,,, I have decided to ask all my friends in cyber space to come up with something & post them for us all to see, so we can pick one .......
