Preparing

I sing on one of the worship teams at our church. It's something I sort of fell into a couple years ago when I decided to take the plunge and get in on the "special music" rotation (i.e. sing a solo). While I have sung in any number of choirs and choruses, all the way back to fifth grade, I have never ever sung an entire song by myself. I dimly recall a couple times in school when I had a line or two (and completely panicked to do them!). However, I'm so glad I decided to finally take the plunge.

I'm even more thankful to the wonderful ladies who run the worship team I sing on. We typically sing two Sundays a month but the other team in our church is currently struggling with having enough musicians to play for them, so we've been going pretty straight here for awhile with only an occasional Sunday off.

I have to be honest and say that I am totally okay with that. I love singing and I love our worship team.

We met tonight to start working on songs for Easter. All but two are brand-spanking new to us. I am thrilled with the line-up! The ladies who run our team did an excellent job picking songs that will be glorifying to God and share the story of Christ's resurrection.

Here's a sneak peak at a couple....


And this one I absolutely love! Those in my church who are attending Ladies Day this Saturday, you'll hear it sung by the women leading worship.

  1. I like Stuart Townend and these selections very much. Another of my favorites is "In Christ Alone". I can't believe Easter is right around the corner. It's my favorite time of the year. I look forward to lent and Easter much more than Christmas.

Oh thank goodness! I'm not here all alone. Thanks for leaving me a comment. It helps that I'm not always talking to myself. Right? Hello?
