Monday Morning Recap for Sunday – May 22, 2011

Patrick and the youth worship team did an excellent job leading for me last week as I was out of town.

Patrick and the Youth Group are leading in worship this Sunday. You don't want to miss it!

1. Favorite commercial - I still quote this commercial - mostly because it's fun to yell "BUSY" in the middle of someone talking.

Favorite ABSOLUTE RIDICULOUSNESS - Not even the Son of Man knows, because it's hidden in the Father - but apparently these people know. http://www.ebiblefellowship.com/may21/ 3.

Happy mother's day to all the moms out there. I called mine yesterday morning and had a sweet conversation with her, remembering some childhood memories. Anyway - we opened the early service with All Because of Jesus. I say the early service because we cut it for the 2nd service because of time issues.After our call to worship we sang Let Us Return, O Worship the King, God of This City, and Never Let Go.Our offering song was a new song my wife wrote called One Mother's Prayer. Great tune - involved the kids choir, and a small ensemble of…
