Hey everyone - Hope you're all doing quite well. See below for this week's roster and line-up. Be sure to look at the bottom for the roster for the 27th which is presently designated as FULL.

As youth group has been moved to Sunday evenings and the youth worship team will be leading worship as a part of the youth program i've taken them off of the "ordinary" rotation. They'll go back to leading worship (on Sunday morning) on Youth Sundays (fifth Sundays). I'll have revised versions of the September and October Worship Team calendars this Thursday at rehearsal. You can also get them out of my mailbox at church anytime. See you soon -E.T.

I won't have the set list figured out until tomorrow; Pastor Paul and I are working on it as we try to pull together an all-kid-friendly worship service that will feature Sunday School songs. Nothing you guys won't be able to handle. This coming Sunday is Rally Day and we'll have both worship services outside so long as the weather will allow. It looks good so far.

As we get into September and I look into the coming months it'd be helpful to know if there are weekends any of you will be out of town and unable to play. I want to make sure you all have a chance to get "on the stage" at least once a month; it's quite difficult with so many of you with a heart to offer your worship to God in this special way. Knowing your schedules ahead of time will help me greatly. Thanks.

P.S. - Please look at the calendar for August and let me know if you won't be able to sing on a particular Sunday. If you need a copy of the August calendar they are avaialble in my mailbox at church.

P.P.S. - This is one of my most favorite Spanish worship songs of them all. Take notice of the simple beauty of the song, a guitar (Taylor 400 Series), keyboard, voices, and a lead voice. This is something i'd like to do eventually: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIkpF5DymbM
