I've set up a group on FLICKR for pics from Roots06 :: http://www.flickr.com/groups/roots06/ :: Check it out and spread the word to folk who were there...
The thing that struck me the most in your photos was the art-work. Here in small-town Alberta, people tend to mistrust art. I am in a small group of artists (all types, not just visual), and we are TRYING to encourage Art in our church, but it is like trying to run through thigh-high mud. We can see where we want to go, but it seems we never get any closer...very encouraging to see such worship on the canvas!!

Thanks for posting those.
Best part Paula was that the art was created DURING the worship/ sermons... and was then auctioned off at the end of the event.
I will touch on art later when I can post but... it was an inspirational part of the weekend.
