Church services for Nov 8, 2009

This week was centred around the church's AGM. The vision was presented again in church, with the use of Lego blocks to show how churches should operate. There was a buzz (not only my husband :P)in both of the services, which was great to feel the ownership coming from the congregations.
Both services were led so ably, the worship leaders certainly were on fire. Thanks to the band, singers and tech crew who also were just great.
Just a couple of general points:
Please play as you are led (usually pianists and guitarists) through prayers, or ends of sermons or after songs. It gives continuity and atmosphere.
The morning service is pushing to have more and more contemporary content, so different styles of playing is needed. There will be keyboard and guitar workshops coming up. We have already had a drumming workshop, which I heard was great.
We are starting to have so many players on the team that we are looking at how to best use you. There is a possibility of putting a couple of other churches on our roster. That means we will send a team around once a month to help them out. Please let me know if you are interested in this.
Also please let me know if you would like to be on the team of the new traditional service. This will start next year.
I am also looking at new songs, so keep ideas coming!
In the pm service, we will introduce one new song each week after Christmas, as I think the song list needs new material. The am service already has an injection of new songs. Please collect a CD and song list from my pigeon hole if you would like to learn them (am only at the moment).
Other than that, thanks a lot for your work, I can feel a great sense of attitude, unity and servanthood in the team at the moment. The sky's the limit with those!
Love you all.
