March 14-15 Weekend Recap

This weekend started off with Magnum Opus being held at Lux Coffee Bar, Friday evening.  Luis Acosta is doing a great job of connecting with people in the community who have a passion for The Arts, and reaching into people’s lives through creativity to show them the love of God.  Next month, there are plans in the works to tie Magnum Opus in with First Friday, a monthly celebration of art in downtown Phoenix.

Our services at Living Streams are Saturday at 5:30 PM, and Sunday at 9:00 & 11:00 AM.  Here are the songs from this weekend:

Holy Is The Lord – A
Great Is Our God – A  (Andy Allen original, recording not available yet)
Savior – A
Jesus Paid It All – A
I’m Forever Grateful – G

I didn’t plan on having all the songs in our main set be in the key of A, but as the set developed, it just kind of happened that way.  My initial feeling was that it lacked creativity, but there was just a smooth flow with how the set fit together, that I couldn’t change it up.

The worship times at all the services were refreshing.  The presence of God felt incredibly close, and people were really engaged with what God was busy doing.  Sunday morning, we started having Pastors and Elders come forward at the close of service to pray with people.  Pastor Mark’s message really struck a chord with people, and there was a really cool response and prayer time as the service closed.  In the weeks to come, I’m so excited to see more people impacted by the truth of God’s word, and the love of Jesus.

I’m currently gearing up for Easter.  Praying and planning.  Please pray with me as we anticipate people coming to worship with us who really need Jesus in their lives.
