Worship Confessional: December 6th, 2009
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I know, not very original! But I do love this Holiday Season. I love the focus of Thanksgiving, the celebration of Christmas and the fresh start of the New Year!
We started our new three week series today called “The Gift.” Yes, it is a very simple title, but it is a very simple message that we are trying to present about God being the ultimate giver and Jesus being the ultimate gift! We have a three week drama we are presenting that one of our ladies wrote for us (Thanks Patti!), and the choir is adding a few songs to it to make for a wonderful time of celebration! We scaled back our congregational singing for the next three weeks to have the time we need for everything. We will sing some carols throughout the set though is a variety of ways. Today we used just a piano and had congregational singing intertwined within the drama. Here is the flow for the day:
Video – 12 Crazy Days of Christmas
Special – “A Baby Changes Everything” (Fantastic job Misty!)

I was so proud of the job our crew did today. The technical crews were right on today, and the drama and vocals all did an amazing job! Thanks everyone! This post is also part of Sunday Setlists at Fred McKinnon [dot] com.
