Jars of Clay, Third Day Announce Joint Christmas Tour

|PIC1|Legendary Christian groups Third Day and Jars of Clay have officially announced The Christmas Offerings Tour.

"We are very excited to share this night with all of you to rejoice in the birth of Jesus. The tour begins on 29 November and ends on 16 December, offering only 12 shows. Tickets are available to everyone on 7 September," announced Third Day in a newsletter.

"Get your tickets early, and a portion of the proceeds will go to benefit Blood:Water Mission, the African mission work started by Jars of Clay."

The band shared during their recent Pennsylvania gig that fans can expect some "nice surprises" at the winter shows.

Third Day released Chronology, Volume Two last week, which features music from 2001 to 2006.

Much like the companion Volume One (1996-2000), the two-disc CD/DVD set presents many of the Atlanta-based band's most beloved compositions.

The 18-track audio disc features some of the band's biggest hits, as well as a number of previously unreleased live tracks from the "Wherever You Are" tour.

The second disc is a DVD offering high-energy video footage, including the video to the hit song "Tunnel" and an hour-long, in-depth documentary titled Inside Third Day: The First 10 Years.

Third Day will celebrate the launch of Chronology, Volume Two by hosting a viewing of its documentary, Inside Third Day: The First 10 Years in Kennesaw, Georgia.
