Over the past year, a group of United Brethren pastors have had a desire to hold a gathering of individuals who are involved in the planning and leading of our weekly worship services/meetings. Worship is one of the main purposes that God has given the local church the privilege and responsibility of carrying out. So with that said, we would like to invite you to join us for this for this gathering on Saturday, October 23, 2010.
Here are a number of the goals that we would like to accomplish as we meet.
Here are a number of the goals that we would like to accomplish as we meet.
First, our desire as we gather would be that our Savior would be worshiped and glorified.
Second, our hope is that as we gather we might be encouraged in this work in such a way that will benefit our local contexts.
Thirdly, as Proverbs 27:17 says, "Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another." We look forward to the opportunity to fellowship with other leaders and gain insights and benefit from the skill of others.
The day will consist of refreshing times of worship, teaching from God's word, fellowship with other pastors and worship leaders, and opportunities share insights that have been learned through the years.
Some of the topics that we will be dealing with are the following:
- Why We Sing
- Why What What We Sing Matters
- How To Introduce Songs
- Relationships (Team Dynamics)
- Planning Approaches
- The Heart of It All
We hope to see you on October 23, 2010 at Blue Rock Church in Waynesboro, PA.
