“Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! for praise from the upright is beautiful. Praise the Lord with the harp; Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings. Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy.” (Psalm 33:1-3)
DON’T FORGET WEDNESDAY REHEARSAL, TOMORROW, FEBRUARY 27 AT 6:00 PM
MUSIC FOR SUNDAY, MARCH 02, 2008
Great job last week on “The Great I Am Still Is” what a great reminder for all of us who are dealing with hardships, and times of certainty. This week the Choir will sing “I Still Cling to the Old Rugged Cross” in both services. Please be in the Choir room by 8:00 am for the early service and again at 10:30 for the second service. We have had very small groups in the early service choir barely enough people to cover parts. If you could help us out it would be much appreciated.
Sharon Doyle will sing the vocal praise in both services
Jean Lueken will play the piano and Pam Hagan will play the Keyboard in the 8:15 service.
Kathy Perry will play the piano and Virgie McGill will play the Keyboard in the 10:45 service.
The Praise team will sing in the 10:45 service. The singers will be Kalyn C., Briana K., Kathy P. and Bradley P.
Choir rehearsal will begin at 5:30
Praise Team will rehearse at 7:00 pm. with Cindy M., Evette E., Rick M., and Bradley P.
ONE LAST PLEA
If you are going to participate in the Easter program this year you need to begin attending rehearsals as soon as possible. If you could also come to rehearsal this Sunday evening so that I can get a count of how many people are actually going to be in the program. I can’t really tell because we have had so much sickness, or people dealing with sickness of loved ones, or other personal issues. Please continue to pray for our members as they deal with these issues.
THANK YOU
Thank you for your responses so far to this weeks question “What do you think of what we are doing in Worship?” Your responses are invaluable to me and I will listen to each one of them. If you haven’t responded yet please do so, I will not be sending these out to everyone, so feel free to be honest and open (in a nice, positive way). I will use the responses to help me as I make future plans for the direction of our worship services. I will also address all of the issues that you bring up in a future email. Please remember that I am trying to strike a balance here, it’s kind of like walking a tight rope, sometimes I make it across and some times I fall. Please pray for me as I plan worship each week, and as you respond, remember that you are not the only one that we have to reach each week and we need to follow God’s direction not yours our mine.

“And they sang a new song, saying: You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; For You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and have made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall reign on the earth. Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, And strength and honor and glory and blessing!” (Revelation 5:9-12)
