WEIGH IN...


Come March, we are going to have to shuffle around practice time. With part of the team leading on Saturday evening, they will begin practice/sound check at 6:45-7pm. With prayer from 5:30-6:30 pm on the first and third Saturdays, these are our options...
4:00pm or morning...10 or 10:30 am.

Thoughts? Thank you for your comments.

EASTER CHOIR UPDATE


I wanted to let you all know we had choir auditions for our Easter Choir. They went well. Two additonl men! Yeah. That is exciting. I am also enlisting kids and teens. As many as I can! Let them know they just need to sign up...no auditions for them. We will contact them with the practice schedule (4 practices).

Like I said in a previous post, I am attempting to get a small string quartet for Easter. Who knows if it will work but sure would be cool!

As of right now, we are selecting songs for Easter and will hope to have them on cd (with parts) prior to the first practice so everyone can practice them. We have a simplified version of "God, Great God" that I still am hanging on to and hope to do. (-:

I would like all BGV's to be involved in the choir practices. I want to keep you leading and in front of the choir. It is not only great experience training your parts but also adds to the validity of what these people are doing. I appreciate your hard work! All the practices will be planned out and with the cd of the parts, it should be very smooth!

Please keep the planning and carrying out of this season in your prayers.

MOMENTUM IS HAPPENING!!!

NEW SONG


Nice job with the new song. To those of you who listened to and practiced the song beforehand, you made practice go very smooth.

Audio technicians, your team paid special attention to the details which paid off. Aaron, thank you for your wisdom on sound, second service. Emily said your advice and tips were great. Audio techs, thank you for being so passionate to grow and excel. You truly allow God's word and song to be heard.

BGV's, thank you for your exhaustive study of the parts. Rachel, you were a huge help to all!

Musicians, way to worship on a new song. Although a simple song, I personally found it a bit difficult to stay in the pocket. (-: Pastor Jeff said Terryl and my keyboard were beautiful together in the beginning and end of the song.

I appreciate you all! Enjoying the journey with you.

WANT TO WIN? CHIME IN!


Okay, you have some questions from last week. Next Saturday, we are going to briefly discuss some of them. I have a number in mind. (-: Whoever is the ___ person to chime in with either a topic to discuss next week, feedback on "Jesus Is" or "Adonai" or in response to the previous questions asked in your section, you will win.

LOT'S TO CHOOSE FROM!

SHOUT OUT!


This week's shout out goes to Travis. Travis plays acoustic and sings melody.

This week, Travis was asked on short notice, to sing "Broken Road." He took it home on Saturday evening, practiced and came to church making a sound check happen. Nice job!

Travis, thank you for your hard work. You willingly make corrections, as needed. You are constantly desiring to learn. Aside from the ocassional...okay often distraction (-: (that was supposed to be funny), you are a huge support to whomever is leading. You are always willing to give feedback as well as jump in and tackle whatever outlandish thing I ask! Thank you.

His wife Gia is amazing so we know he is doing something right!!!
