Sponsor a Child in Jesus Name with Compassion

Sunday Setlist [10.17.09]

I’m posting this via iPhone, since I’m currently without Internet at our new place here in the beautiful Golden Isles region of Coastal Georgia. We’re still unpackig boxes, but we are OFFICIAL residents of our “dream” area!!

I was invited by my good buddy, Fred McKinnon, to sit in with the St. Simons Community Church band this Sunday. Definitely an honor and an opportunity I wouldn’t miss!

Fred was out of town on a mission/training trip for Compassion and so he asked me to fill the “keys” slot in the band.

Rehearsal thursday night went great. I jumped right in and added what I could when I could. Apparently it was sufficient because everyone was very nice.

Sunday morning went well.

1) I See The Lord: I think it’s an old Ron Kenoly tune. Key G.

2) The Rock: and old gospel, bluesy tune. Key G. This one was fun. Got to cut loose with some bluesy stuff and even play a little solo in the middle.

3) Hosanna: (Baloche) Key G. Pretty standard arrangement.

4) I Can Only Imagine: Key E. Switched over from keys to grand piano on this one. Love playing a REAL piano!! Went well. Standard arrangement.

5) 6) 7) Medley of Come to the Table, You Are My King and On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand: Key D. These were during the after message communion set.

I really enjoyed playing this week. It was VERY nice to come in to a well running ministry and just offer my talents to serve the congregation and to worship God in music WITHOUT wearing the leader’s hat. Everything was so smooth and well thought out: from the organized and labeled IEMs, to the snacks in the green room, to the communion for the team in the back between services. I loved my first day of serving with the band.

It was a pleasure and I hope to do it again soon!

join me and other worshipers as we share our Sunday experiences and Sunday Setlists.

    Russ, it was great having you (for the first time of many I hope). You jumped right in with an unfamiliar band, unfamiliar keyboard, unfamiliar IEMs, etc. and everything sounded great.

    Welcome HOME.

    The pleasure was all ours! It was seeing and hearing you play!

    Fred
