Day One

Today was Day One

ok…it was “technically” Day 3, if you count this week’s days in the office.  None-the-less, today was the first Sunday for me at Maple Grove Evangelical Free Church.  Overall, I think things went as planned.  I’ve been working with Matt on today’s service over the last couple of weeks and he did a great job of running the rehearsals, coordinating and communicating with the volunteers, and just overall being a workhorse!  I know that  and his wife are totally goign to be missed.

Soooo…back to what I was going to share.  Here is the PCO (Plannign Center Online) order of service:
June 14th, 2009

It’s still too early to give out any type of real evaluation, but I can tell you that my guitar fell off the guitar stand in second service in the beginning of announcements.  I’m not one who gets embarrassed easily, so it was not a real big deal for me, but when I had to put on the guitar again for the beginning of the offertory special, I didn’t think that the 3 foot drop the headstock took just might give me a reason to check the tuning on the guitar ;P

Needless to say, I had to tune on the fly, which made it a little awkward for me, but hopefully I wasn’t too much a distraction.  I’m sure someone will bring up the guitar thing at our Worship Arts meeting this Tuesday. Maybe next time I’ll lead from the piano.  But then I might fall off the chair if Murphey’s Law tends to stick around for me.

Let’s hope I don’t end up like this guy:
