Fall Connection is THIS WEEK!!! Sunday, September 25

And I have so much to tell you in preparation!!!!

Let me get the things that pertain to the actual worship set out of the way and then I'll go on to give additional instruction.

This is going to be a HUGE week.

We are not doing any new material this week -- we need to do some of our material that is our best - what I would consider our tightest stuff, and come prepared spiritually and musically with our game on.  Please be ON TIME - I would like THE ENTIRE TEAM there at 8 am, to be prepped for this day.  We need to go over our set, get it SUPER TIGHT and have time to pray and get ourselves fully engaged for this day.

Worship Set:
Say So
My Savior Lives
Our God
Waiting Here For You

Offering #1:  Choir Song - "We Lift You Up" (from Give Him the Praise)
Offering #2:  I Will Exalt You/I Exalt Thee

Altar Time:  Moving Forward & I Lift My Hands

Dress/Colors: I would ask that the entire team wear BLUE jeans this coming week.  It's a casual day with dinner on the grounds.  The one thing I'd like the same is for us to have blue jeans on bottom, as far as on the top, it's your choice but MODESTY is the word of the day.  No b's (boobs, butts, bellies or backs.)  Ladies, we can dress up our jeans with some cute heels/shoes, and then change after service to go outside.

Note:  There's a bounce house and 18 ft. water slide we've rented for the day so if you want to change to shorts or bathing suit after church you are welcome to do that.  Please remember towels!

As far as frontline, Suzanne is out of town this week.  That leaves us with seven frontline folks left and I'd like to use all of you this week and cord a few mics if we have to.  So everyone come prepared for frontline this week only, please.  Next week we'll go back to scheduling.

Now, other things to note...

When you come to church Sunday morning please park your cars in the back by the playground/trailers, etc.  We are asking the entire worship ministries team and leadership team to park back there for Sunday.  We believe we will need the parking and may even have to have people park cross the street at the credit union.

Also when you get ready for worship service to begin please don't put your purses and bibles, etc. on the chairs in the sanctuary to save a seat for when you are done with worship.  We are fully expecting that it might be a possibility that Celebrators have to stand on Sunday morning.  If so we will take the lead in doing so.  In the event that we can't fit in the sanctuary overflow will be Sanctuary A and the Choir Room.  Every available sanctuary chair has been taken out of storage and set up for this day.  In the event that we have run out of chairs, Pastor Larry should not have to ask anyone to stand.  All of our CC people should just make a move to do so without him asking.

When you come in for rehearsal please take your food that you brought for the day and put it in the kitchen.  The refrigerators will be cleaned out for this purpose.  If you have any question regarding food, you can see Sue Flint, coordinator of food for the day.

We are asking that once the service begins, no Celebrators leave the sanctuary UNLESS IT IS AN EMERGENCY.  If you can possibly hold it after worship, please wait until service dismisses to go out.  Not only is leaving a distraction but it lets the air out of the sanctuary.

Most of all, pray, pray,pray about this day!  And then pray some more!

It's time for a ridiculous harvest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you all so much,
