Wake up and join in celebrating the Lord’s first appearance

Rejoice together in this family service (one talk for all) focusing on the Lord’s accomplishments for the sake of our spiritual well being

Anyone is welcome to come and "try it out" - starting Wed. April 19 at 9:30 amWhat is a Worship Team? I used to call it my Sermon Team, but I'm expanding it to include other aspects of planning
worship services. The purpose is to discuss upcoming worship services—topics, application to life, audio and visual aids, music, ways to include more participation, etc. I welcome anyone to try it out with no term commitment. It will be a collaborative small group experience, and what we do will depend somewhat on the interests of the group.
My vision for it is a forward-looking, creative brainstorming and study group. I have found lots of inspiration from such
team efforts in the past. I will run it as a small group, starting with a brief "check in" and prayer, and finishing with a quick "closing thought."
You don’t need to be well-versed in the Bible or theology. Often what I find most helpful are people’s questions and reflections on a topic’s relation to their lives. We will also be reading together "The Art of Effective Preaching
- A Guide for Those Who Preach and Those Who Listen," by Frank and Jeremy Rose.
The first meeting is Wednesday, April 19 from 9:30-10:30 am at the church. Let me know if you have questions and if you’d like to come!
