Horizon Community Church Choir is music ministry within the church. It's both a ministry for those involved, and for those we perform for! Give it a try!
Our Praise Team helps lead worship in song on Sunday mornings the only way we know how - to lead by example.
“Remember the marvelous deeds which He has done, His miracles, and the judgments He uttered…Sing to the Lord, all the earth; show forth from day to day His salvation. Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all peoples. For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised…”
1 Chronicles 16:12, 23-25a
Over the last couple of months, I have been thinking a lot about the passage quoted above in 1 Chronicles, as well as a myriad of verses in the Psalms about remembering what the Lord has done in our lives and even before our time, and sharing His works with our church family, to strangers, and to our children. It is an essential part of worship, but I have struggled to figure out how to fit that in during the song service.
Recently, we’ve learned the song “O Happy Day” by Tim Hughes which talks about that beautiful day Christ died for our sins and we were made free and alive in Him! It also calls to mind the day we individually came to know Christ and the importance of pausing to remember. After our February 14th services, I was approached by an individual who told me they received Christ as their Savior on Valentine’s Day, twenty-four years earlier. What a special day to be introduced to the Lover of our Souls!
Anyhow, an idea that was beginning to take shape was solidified after speaking with the “Valentine’s Christian” – why not just ask you for your stories?
So here I am, with a standing invitation to share your answered prayers and miracles with me, whether on a Sunday after church, or through an email. Please be aware I that I may refer to you in a newsletter article or on stage for the purposes of “declaring His glory among the nations, and His marvelous works among all peoples”. But I believe this is important; we need to be aware of what our great and glorious God is doing among our church family!
