sooo, this is another post submitted as a part of the craziness over on fred’s blog…it’s a weekly hot spot for worship leaders to blog about what all happened in their weekend services…go check it out!!!
i was back for week six in the LIVE services of lima community church…i know i’m late getting this done but hey…here we go…
our services started off with the video announcements and a meet and greet time…then we jumped right in…
1. awesome is the Lord most high…by passion
2. all we need…by charlie hall
then we had communion set up…saturday night this was done by our lead worship pastor tim thurston…on sunday morning it was done by our executive pastor vince nelson…and we started the next song…
3. revelation song…by gateway worship (first verse & chorus)
then they came back up and the congregation took the elements as one…and we went right back into the music…
4. revelation song…by gateway worship (verse two through the end)
**on saturday night i shared scripture here from phillipians 2 and we sang the last verse of revelation song again, as well as a couple choruses
then we had our offering set up and took the offering…
5. everyday…by hillsong united
then our lead pastor dan huckins brought our weekend message…we are still in our series called “txting”…this week’s question was “When R U Comin Back?”…with a focus on living life expecting Christ’s return at any moment…being ready…
6. i wish we’d all been ready…by larry norman (i only did this song for the two sunday morning services, after hearing the message saturday night…it fit perfectly…)
then the lead pastor prayed and invited the congregation to live expectantly…
7. everyday…by hillsong united (started with the bridge and finished out the song)
the lead pastor then came back up for the benediction…we played through a couple choruses of everyday as people were leaving…
sooo, we started out with four songs…and in the end we had a TON of music in these services…it was week two for revelation song…i have to say that this song is going to be a hit with our congregation…let absolutely love the song and sing it with a great deal of passion…i felt a good solid energy in the room for each of the services…people were there and seemed to be expectant of experiencing God…
overall, i would say that all of the services were “sloppy”…there were things in each service that could have been done better…things could have been smoother…and i’m not real sure why, because those things weren’t the same with each service…the perfectionist that i am walked away from the weekend thinking that it could have and should have been done better…i didn’t like having that feeling at all…
sooo there you have it…
sunday setlists…LIVE…take six…
running out of adjectives for ya, Powerful, heart wrenching, beautiful, spirit driven. KUDO’s on wk 6, So so many people are commenting on how good the service and the music has been, we all just pray we have 666 wks more of ya.. You have brought a spark back to the church and we DO appreciate it..
LOVED IT!!! The perfectionist in you saw things the rest of us (even those of us sitting front and center) sure aren’t catching! I’ll share with you, if I have already I apologize for duplicating, that my family of 6 (four boys ages 1 1/2-7yrs old) were chronic late arrivals for the 9am Live service. We’d be lucky to get to our seats after checking kids into their rooms with one song left in worship. Mother’s Day changed all that- I’d just gotten off of working a 13hr overnight shift at the hospital as a nurse, and asked hubby if getting to church on time could be a “gift” of mine for Mother’s Day. Then, in what I think was your 2nd Live performance, my husband and I knew immediately that we’d never be late again if we could ever help it!! We’re now there from the first note… 4 rows back, just a tad left of center (ur left) and we LOVE listening to EVERY praise and worship note your praise team sings!!! Thank you!!!
