It has been a while since I was this excited about the fall kickoff at First Baptist Jackson. We have lots of cool stuff going on in many areas of ministry. As anyone who follows me knows, I serve most of my time in the Music Ministry. I sing in the choir. I direct logistics for the choir. I am wrapping up a project (with the help of many many others) of reorganizing the Music Library and our major storage areas. I am a student of the Academy of Arts (I am a #celloplayer!). And this fall, I am am serving as the Administrator of the Academy of Arts. I even have goals (playing in the orchestra in 2019)!
What a way to tell others about Jesus! I know there are many ways to do this but music touches something in all of us, especially when we sing and play and support the singing and playing through technology and media. With that in mind, if you can, join me #whereibelong this fall. Want to sing? There is a place for you. Play an instrument? Our orchestra is amazing and contributes to so many areas of worship leadership. Have a tech bent or even skills like graphic design and media development? We have a place for you, too. And service – we have many many opportunities to serve in our community and around the world.
Come. Be a part. Bring someone else. Tomorrow night we start at 6PM in the 3rd Floor Atrium. We will have great food, great fellowship, meet the Music and Media Staff, spend some time worshipping, and even give you a taste of what it is like to prepare to lead on a Sunday at First Baptist Jackson. Come on. I will be looking for you. I want you to be a part of this and sense the excitement we all have to tell others about Jesus!
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Philippians 2:1-2 NIV
Still Choosing Joy!
