Just weeks after cancer surgery, Casting Crowns announces April tour dates with Mark Hall

Casting Crowns just announced their April tour dates.

Christian band Casting Crowns is ready to rock the stage once again with lead singer Mark Hall as he continues to make a good recovery from surgery to remove his cancer.

The band announced their April tour dates on their Facebook page, and it seems like their fans are quite eager to see them perform again.

"Many of you have asked questions about our upcoming concerts and when we might be able to start traveling again. Mark is getting stronger every day and is looking forward to getting back out on the road very soon," the band wrote.

In fact, their first show date in Montgomery, Alabama on April 16 has already sold out. Their next concert will be on April 17 at Mandeville, Louisiana, and there are now limited seats left to that show.

Next concert will be on April 18 at Hattiesburg, Mississippi, followed by Huntsville, Alabama on April 23 and Peoria, Illinois on April 24.

The band's next two shows are also sold out - at Anderson, Indiana on April 25 and Arden, North Carolina on April 28.

They will also perform in different cities in Texas - Andrews on April 30, San Angelo on May 1, and Cedar Park on May 2. Rounding up the tour, the band will perform at Pikeville, Kentucky on May 7.

The band is very grateful for their fans' support and prayers, especially in light of Mark's battle with cancer. "Hey Friends! Thank you for your tremendous support of Mark and family during this season. You have loved us well!" the band wrote.

Mark's wife Melanie has kept fans updated about her husband's status on the band's page, and in the end, she wrote that healing comes slow and steady, even though Mark tries desperately to speed up the process.

"We 'disagree' quite often with what he should or shouldn't be doing. He's a very busy man and not taken to sitting and doing nothing for very long. He's been working 7 days a week most of the last 12 years, so being cooped up in the house for a month isn't something he's thrilled about," she shared.
