LATELY...

I am in the middle of Quarry preparations but wanted to post a quick note to you all:

I want you to know how proud I am of all of you! I was really inspired by how the people connected with and sang the new song this past weekend. This has been happening with all our new songs lately.

We all know how difficult it is to introduce a brand new song. I think it is easy to take for granted just how far God has brought us. It was because of the practice you put in during the week and your persistent excellence on Saturday. Your faces showed that you knew the song and were able to worship in the midst of ministering.

I want you to take a moment and recognize how God is using us all. It is a big fat win when we are able to lead people to worship. We did that this weekend.

Now, having said that, I know it is God's grace and all He has done that has allowed us to be here. I praise Him for allowing us to shout His fame! That's why we're here!!!

Thank you for your tremendous effort, setting aside time to improve your skill and allowing God to work through you.

Thank you!!!

REACH TEAMS

Hi,

I am considering advertising a Reach Team which would happen once a month for those interested in increasing their skills on:
acoustic
percussion
keyboard
electric
vocal skills
ALL under the banner of using their talents and hearts in worship.

For children, I think it would be cool to have the vocalists work with ours during this time and then having them lead worship with their leader in children's the next day.

Anyone interested in helping in your section of the reach team?

WOOT!!!

So i have some awesome news for you all. Remember how i was all bummed out that i havent been able to make it to practices lately. Well today, my boss Jim Knight, pulled me into the office and told me that starting the 15th of September I will be working monday through friday. So basically my prayers were answered. I will now be able to attend practices again! i'm pretty stoked. Thank you all for your prayers and I look forward to seeing you all at practice once again. God is good!
