Over the years, my brother and sister and I would end up putting together all sorts of ensembles, and for at least eight years in a row we did an arrangement of “O Holy Night” on Christmas Eve (including one year with Allison on cello as part of our group). We sang “O Holy Night” for so many years in a row, largely because we were asked by so many people to do it again. Just so we wouldn’t get bored, we started sharing two different songs on Christmas Eve, a new and different one each year, and O Holy Night during offering before the candlelight portion of the service.
Having heard some of your stories around North County, it has given me great joy to know that many of you have similar stories of sharing music over past years in worship. It’s been a lot of fun to help lead the singing at North County with all of you as I have filled in the past couple of months with the worship team. As we wait for whoever the next worship leader is, we continue to lift praises to God, make music together, and worship God. Because after all it’s not about us at all. It’s about our loving God who became incarnate and is with us, Emmanuel.
