Pasadena A/G unvieled their vision slogan for 2006 on Sunday. Pastor Phil came up with it, and when I first saw it I was instantly connected to it. Heart for the Harvest, is our adaptation at PAG of the district's theme People of the Harvest.
I'm excited for PAG in this year of harvest. There are some strategic applications of this theme...the two biggest in my mind are 1. The building and 2. The church plant. It's really exciting!
Tonight is the Executive Board meeting where they'll be told about the church plant. I'm not exactly sure where this falls in the way of business. I don't know if this is just an information item or if this is an action item. I think it falls kinda in between. I'll have the opportunity tonight to again share about my calling, and I look forward to that.
Saturday night I had the chance to go to Bethel Assembly in Savage, MD and speak. They were launching a young adults group called "Blue Jean Worship". The first Saturday of each month. Pastor Green was telling me about it and then asked me to come and speak for the night. It was a blast. They had great music, coffee and there seemed to be a real excitement about it. I was privileged to get to be part of it.
In some ways it made me reflect on SRC and what I envision the weekend services to be like. The weekend services are designed as entry points for new comers. Our weekend services will inspire worship through quality as well as the participation of SRCers. I believe that compelling music, prayer and message are the building blocks of the worship experience. But equally important to me is a relational experience with one another. I'll explore that more later.
