A Note From Joseph

Hey Choir and Orchestra,

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving week. Thank you for being back Sunday morning in strong numbers. You led beautifully.

Only two more weeks until “Here With Us”, our Christmas program! Please be listening to your music every day, and please be inviting everywhere you go.

This Wednesday, enter the new choir room at our normal time, through the sanctuary entrance, behind the choir loft. We’ll begin at 7:15pm.

On Sunday, the adult choir will NOT be singing in the loft due to props and preparations for the Kid's Musical. Enjoy the reprieve before our big weekend next week! DO come back Sunday night at 6pm to support our kids' ministry. I know they have been working very hard to pull “Away in Mango” together. It’s going to be a lot of fun and present the Gospel. Invite your friends and family.

Next week, we will have our final rehearsals where we put it all together with our tech teams, ensembles, cast and crew: Tuesday at 6:30pm, Wednesday at 7:15pm as usual. I’m sure Tuesday will take extra time, but hopefully Wednesday will be a full run with no stops.🤞 We will begin both of those rehearsals in the CHOIR ROOM to practice walking in. 

Please take care of yourselves, practicing good hygiene and hydrating to keep yourselves in tip top shape. We need every voice, here with us! 

Thank you choir and orchestra for your diligence and faithfulness. I’m blown away by what you are capable of doing. Monday’s rehearsal was a testimony to your willingness to do what it takes to get the job done. Thank you for putting in the extra effort. It is for the King, and I know that is your heart behind your work.

God Bless!
Joseph

Choir Care Groups 

We are starting Care Groups this year! Each member of our worship team will be assigned a small care group so that we can foster relationships, learn how to pray for each other, and take care of our choir family. Below is a list of each care group and their leaders. Your leader will receive your contact information and will reach out soon! The youth members are not included in this list - it was a little too complicated logistically to include minors.
 If you have any questions, please let Ashlee or Joseph know! 

Worship Ministry Life Group 

This Sunday, we will NOT be meeting due to the Ribbon Cutting. However, 12/14, we will dismiss to the new choir room after we sing/play first service!!

Sunday Mornings 

Choir, Please be sure to be in the loft 10-15 minutes before the start of the service so we can get everyone placed. 

Perfumes and Colognes

Please have mercy on our choir members who suffer from allergies by avoiding perfumes, body sprays, and cologne on Sundays. 

Parking and Seating in the Worship Center

Help us accommodate visitors by parking off-campus if you're physically able and refraining from saving seats in the Worship Center
