It’s been so good to get back to ‘normal’ after the Advent season.  The 11:15 band learned ‘Everybody Praise the Lord’ this week, and rocked it.  Brilliant keyboard player James suggested some great musical transitions this week, which were quite effective.  Congregation is remembering what it is to work together in worship.  :)
