Abundance

'Abundance' This is the name of the worship team at Abundant Life Church. I'm the Worship/Associate Pastor of Abundant Life Church, and among other things, I head up the worship and creative arts dept. of the church. I'm very excited about what God has achieved in the 'three plus' years the team has been operating. I was only reflecting just the other day about the numerical growth of the team. Twelve months ago we had 9 members. We now have 21 (wow). I'm encouraged about this, but more than that, I'm astounded at the spiritual growth of the team. We are seeing ever increasing passion, dedication and desire to see God honoured through praise and worship. I am seeing certain members of the team 'stepping up' and operating in newly discovered gifts of prayer, healing and worship. One focus we have is 'home grown' new songs. This area in particular has seen some really significant contributions. 'Because of You' - a powerful slow rock song written in minor chords (Summerson/Crome), 'Heal our Land' - an upbeat 'spoken/sung' style song about seeking revival (Tachell/Crome), 'More Beautiful' - an alternate modern teen culture worship song (J.Summerson/L.Crome) 'All I Can say' - an incredibly powerful 'deep heart' worship song (Laura Crome) just to mention some of the offerings. I am just so immensly aware of God's blessings as He calls His people to worship in 'Absolute Spirit and Profound Truth'. If you are interested in these songs, drop me a line, and we will see what we can do to share them with you. Thanks Pastor G. for inviting me to be an author on this blog, I can see I'm going to have some great fun here.

God Bless you worshipping people.

July

Well, July is upon us. This Sunday is July 1st. New financial year. What does that mean for the church? Nothing really! God says in His word 'my blessing are new every morning'. 

Is that how you see you life? Full of opportunity & blessing every new day! If not - might be worth a try.

Hillsong conference is on this coming week starting July 2nd. Looking forward to a great week of inspirational teaching & excellent fellowship.

What's coming up back here at home?  

Youth are going to the movies tonight. Ladies are Bellydancing on Saturday night at the church. Should be fun. Life Girls is still on with the next meeting to be held after Hillsong. Stay tuned. Home groups are on hold while school holidays are on. Feel free to continue to fellowship with each other, but there is nothing formal organised.

Millthorpe will be on both Sunday the 8th & Sunday the 22nd. These services start at 3:30pm at the School of Arts Hall in Millthorpe. Invite someone along.

Blayney church is as normal each Sunday at 10am in the 'shed' next to the Video Parlour.

Be blessed.
