Worship Ministry update: 4/14/09

 Choir and Orchestra
 
    Thank you all for doing a wonderful job on Easter Sunday!  It was great to serve with all of you!  You all were a blessing to so many people, including me! 
 
    I know that you all will rock the Centre on Thursday!  I'm looking forward to it!  Here's the details:
 
    Directions to the Centre:  From I-64 - Take US 41 South approximately 17 miles to the Lloyd Expressway Exit. Take the exit and turn to the right. Continue on the Lloyd Expressway to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. Exit. Take the MLK Blvd. exit and turn to the left, travel to the 5th stoplight which will be Locust Street. Turn left at the light and The Centre will be on your immediate right.  Park in the east parking lot.  (if available) and enter in the 2nd set of doors of The Centre.  Once inside go to the far east end of the lobby and go behind the black pipe and drape.  (This section is for media only...but will also be the staging area for the choir and orchestra). 
 
    Wednesday night, April 15 @ 6:00 P.M. at the Centre (sound check for right to life banquet) (childcare will be provided at the FCCN  nursery) 
 
            - this will just be a sound check, not a full practice.  We'll probably run through all of "If you are an American," and parts of a few other songs.   
 
           - dress: whatever you want to wear. :) 
 
            - I'll be driving the FCCN van since I don't have a vehicle anyway.  If you would like to ride with me, be at FCCN at 5:15ish.  We'll leave at 5:30.  Don't be late: you KNOW I'll leave on time. :)  I'll also take you back to FCCN after sound check is over.
 
            - If you need childcare, Jennifer will be in the FCCN nursery at 5:30, so you can drop them off there.  She'll take them up the the elementary big room (with Fritz) around 6:30, so you can pick them up there after the sound check at the Centre.   
 
    Thursday night, April 16: 6:00-7:00 P.M. at the Centre (Right to Life Banquet performance!) (NO childcare provided) 
 
                Set list:
                  

                 “All Because of Jesus” (Bill Miller and Mary Lehman solo)

                 “God is in the House” (Sandy Schooler solo)

                  “God of this City” (J.R. Holesinger solo)

                  “Your Grace is Enough” (Bob Walters solo)

      o       Phill: 30 second invite to FCCN

      “If You are an American” (Kendra Bradford and Louis Rose solo)

 
                - dress: blue worship ministry polo shirts with black dress pants, black dress socks and black dress shoes.  Black is the new black. :) 
 
                - I'll be driving the FCCN van, so if you would like to ride with me, be at FCCN at 5:15ish.  We'll leave at 5:30.  We'll take you back after we sing AND after the banquet is over (we'll make 2 trips if needed!).   
 
2009 Vision: The Guys Concert!
 
    The guys vocal team will be doing our first concert in the chapel on Sunday night, May 3 @ 6:30!  If you enjoy new country music or listening to KLOVE (95.3 FM), this is the concert for you!  After the concert, the Guys will be performing in the community as part of the 2009 vision: impacting the community through the arts and acts of kindness.  I am very excited about all of this! 
 
    During the concert, we will be showing a video while we sing the song called "In Color."  We need pictures from WWII, the Korean War and the great depression.  If anyone has pictures of grandparents, parents or yourself that you would like to share with us, please let me borrow them.   A small part of that concert will be honoring the Builder Generation that night.  Thanks! 
 
All Worship Ministry Appreciation picnic!  THIS Sunday night, April 19 @ 6:00 P.M.!
   
    I want to say thank you to ALL worship ministry participants: drama, sign choir, media team, set builders, creative material people, praise team, praise band, choir and orchestra, including their families!  Let's get together and have some fun!  We'll be getting together at the home of Mike & Cynthia Mushrush: 4066 Hwy 62 W in Boonville.  
 
    Directions: From Newburgh, take Hwy 261 North to Center Rd. and turn Left (North). Go to stop sign at Hwy 62 and turn Right (East). Go approximately 1 mile and their house is on the left. We will put balloons on the mailbox, so you'll be sure not to miss it!  Parking will be across the street in the big open parking lot. (former Heartland Chevrolet building)
 
    What to bring: a side dish (preferably) or a dessert, and some lawn chairs!
 
      I look forward to being with you all and saying thank you for all your hard work!
 
     BTW, Scott Lehman  has accepted my volleyball challenge.  We shall see which team wins. :)
 
      It's going to be an exciting week!   Thanks everyone,
