Worship leader training: Weds at 5:30 pm
Interested in planning and leading worship? This week’s new members meeting will be devoted to learning about and practicing worship planning. We’ll start with an orientation to the resources available, then practice by actually planning an upcoming service together. Building off each other’s ideas often produces something unexpectedly lovely. Join us Wed, Aug 11 at 5:30 in our Zoom room. The meeting will be also recorded in case you miss it.
