So a few years back, we had Ross King scheduled to be our worship leader for DiscipleNow. He was all booked and ready. Then, when he got to the airport on Friday, his flight was first delayed, then cancelled. One flight after another wasn't available and the end result was - Friday afternoon, 3:00 p.m. No worship band for a big weekend event. Panic? Not quite.
Enter Andrew Beck. I called Andrew and told him "hey - you're on! You're going to be leading worship this weekend. I'm putting a band together for you. Practice is at 4:00. I called a couple of students and a couple of youth workers and put together a band for the weekend in only a couple of hours. I can't believe it all worked out. The band (who had never played together before) did a great job.
Fast forward a few years to now. Andrew is travelling and leading worship at churches all over Texas. He's on tour with World Changers this Summer. And Ross King is headed back out here for another try.
I'm very excited about the weekend! The theme of the weekend is "Worship: What We're Made For." Ross is hands-down one of the best worship leaders out there. He has a truly humble spirit and his ability to bring a group into God's presence and step out of the way so that we can experience God is unparalelled.
Currently, our planning has us enlisting Host Homes. We're looking for about 10-12 homes in the Highland area to host a group of students for the weekend. Letters are going out today to the lucky ones. If you think you might like to host a home, get in touch with Rob or Gretchen.
Please be in prayer for our weekend. It's coming soon! Pray that our students truly learn what it means to be a worshiper of God.
Seeking Him,
Rob
