Thoughts On Last Night


Last night our Church put on a night of worship. It was exactly what I needed. I needed to take a break from the restless and sick week I have had. I needed to be surrounded by love and joy. It was a perfect evening.

Kristi, Jeff, Robbie, Jennifer and Heidi did amazing on vocals. Don was rockin' the keys (is that the right term?) I don't know any of the other musicians but they were all awesome! I loved the way the choir was used. And it was as if they looked at my list of favorite worship songs and decided to just do those! All my faves were sung last night! The best part of the night was the end when "You Are Good" was sung. That is our family's worship song. The kids use my lipstick as microphones, I tun up the volume all the way and we sing it loud and proud! I have a really great gospel choir version. I wish the kids had been able to be there.

I have been fighting a cold all week. I cough every time I try to talk. But I was singing my heart out last night. I think this was a great way to spend a friday night. Much better than sitting on the couch, watching brainless TV and eating TJ's chips. Thank you FCC for doing this. Let's do it again soon.

PS...not to be forgotten are Billy who was doing something very fancy with a bunch of buttons, and CT who I am sure was somewhere with a clipboard making sure everything was running smoothly. Well done boys.

Amazing how our colds went away even for a couple hours so we could worship freely...

I'm so glad the evening was meaningful to you.

I thought it was an amazing night!!!!

It was definitely an awesome time. Well worth the struggle and stress the crew went through putting it together (at least I think so!). I definitely second the request to do it again.

On a side note, even if the music had been terrible or no one had showed up, just watching Kristi do her cheerleader spin on stage would have been worth it! :)

Kristi..be proud of the spin..you had Jesus Rocks written all over your face and spin and it was perfect!
