Got a plug from Matt Payne today.

Thanks, Matt… and I’m really looking forward to serving alongside you

End of the Year Celebration

August 4, 2008 in Ministry with 4 Comments

Saturday was my last formal Student Worship Team get together.

We had most of the team up at the Rupprecht’s home for a BBQ. It was our chance to celebrate the end of a crazy year… and MAN did we celebrate. Blake pulled together his makeshift slip-n-slide. We did wonder if it was going to kill someone – but in the end, no one cared… they just wanted to slide.

They gave me a VERY generous gift to Tres Bon (my hair salon). I guess they asked Brian what I needed and my sweet husband said, “She’s got a lot of gray. Help a girl out!” So they did. I’m SUPER excited about it cuz I was trying to save money and started taking a black sharpie to my roots. It was working… sort of.

It was such a bittersweet ending to my time at Sunset. I really tried to keep it fun and not emotional.

These students have meant the world to me… they still do. They’ve taught me more about worship and service than they’ll ever know. I’m looking forward to my time with my kids and “moving on” to worship with other brothers and sisters at Church! At Bethany, but I will never EVER forget how Sunset Students have impacted my life for the better.

Worship Confessional – 07.27.08

July 28, 2008 in Worship, Worship Confessional with 1 Comment

Last night was my last Overflow. Talk about bittersweet – but I didn’t cry once. Maybe because this wasn’t my first last time.

HA!

It as a great last night. We had almost 300 people in the gym.

We had a late start in practice and set up. We were re-setting everything from Houseboat Camp still so, it took some time. The plus side was the team had two weeks worth of practicing these songs already.

It ended up being a short set. Because of time, we had to cut two songs so our set was:

From The Inside Out – Hillsong
Grace Like Rain – Todd Agnew
I Worship You – Generation Unleashed
Hosanna – Hillsong
Solution – Hillsong

We finally got to do the awesome (but shortened) transition between Hosanna and Solution I’d been dying to do.

The band:

Drums: Mike Fraser
Bass: Miles Johnson
Electric: Jordan Johnson
Acoustic/Vox: Nick Lind
Acoustic/Vox: Rebecca Strott
Keys/Worship Leader: ME

Tech Team:

Sound: Blake Rupprecht
Lights: Brendon Quinn
Graphics: Jenn Greiner
Switcher: Abby Fraser
Producer: Katelyn Bonn
Stage Manager: Hillary Davault

What a great team to end my run here with! I feel SO blessed to have had this second chance to worship with these students.

I believe in this next generation. I believe they will rise up and shout of His glory in selfless faith… but they cannot do it without our prayers.

Just because I’m not here with them doesn’t mean I’ll ever stop praying for them. I know that God uses me now in extraordinary ways because someone prayed for me LONG LONG ago. I, of all people, was bound for a life of being ordinary and less than (seriously… ask my friends who knew me in high school)… but God is good and has proven time and time again that He uses all who are willing.

I’m JUST starting the process of cleaning my desk… but I’m not feeling very motivated right now.

I think I’ll just try to figure out WordPress instead. I’m not really sure how to add media right now. Correction – I’m not sure how to keep my media from all I’ve imported from Typepad once I close out that account.
