1st Preview Service
Well, our first preview service has come and gone. We were at the school for a total of about four hours that seemed to be over in a flash.
We arrived at 8:00AM to begin setting up. Our setup was a mix and match sort of thing using borrowed equipment from several different sources. Once we have our own equipment it will be much better. It took us about 1 hour to get completely setup and then we had some bugs to workout. Here’s what the timeline looked like.
- 8:00AM - Arrive and begin setup
- 8:50AM - Begin sound check
- 9:15AM - Band rehearsal
- 9:30AM - Break
- 9:40AM - Prayer
- 9:50AM - Band starts playing
- 10:20AM - Keith begins sermon
- 10:57AM - Invitation
- 11:02AM - Offering
- 11:07AM - Dismissed
So we didn’t quick stick to our original time schedule. I took a little longer at the beginning and got us 3-4 minutes behind, then Keith preached for 7-10minutes longer getting us further behind. I ended up cutting out 2 songs at the end to make up some time.
It was a great service though and went pretty smooth for being our first one! God is doing great things at LCC!
Here’s our setlist from yesterday:
- Everlasting God
- Awesome is the Lord
- Famous One
- Kindness
- Give Us Clean Hands
- Be the Centre (Invitation)
- Awesome is the Lord (Offering and Dismissal)
Next week we have a BBQ!
