So it's Tuesday....I don't really have a recap for last weekend except to say that we had a great morning of worship - and about 100 people involved from the worship ministry in leading through Your Love Never Fails.  Not the song title, although we did indeed sing that song - but an hour long service aimed at reminding us of the unfailing love of the Father.I think one of the favorite songs was I Will Wait from Mumford and Sons -We also watched Nooma RAIN - which you can watch below...[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loFBGdeXGtg]Only one service this Sunday because of spring break…
