Battle of the Bands

Battle of the Bands was finally here!! It has been a long anticipated, prayed and preped for event. It was an an awesome night of praise, fellowship, food and fun. Seven bands competed for two awards one was best hymnal transformation and the other was audience favorite. Jay and several other men have put in long hours building the stage, setting lighting and planning this outreach event. We had around 400 people attend. The Wednesday before hand during church we all went out to the stage an Pastor Don dedicated it and we all prayed over it and God is continuing to answer our prayers from this event. Everyone has had such positive comments and can't wait for the next one.

¹Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. ²Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. ³Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. ⁴Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. ⁵For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. Psalm 100:1-5 (King James Version)
