ADVANCED WORSHIP LEADERS CLINIC
Next week, a limited number of worship leaders will be coming to Tennessee to develop their skills, with an emphasis on stage presence and worship planning.  The clinic will include a workshop presentation by a voice specialist from the Vanderbilt Voice Clinic.  This is not for beginning or intermediate skill levels.  Must be strong on the basics.

As you can see, our calendar is busy with great activities.  I can think of nothing more important than training worship leaders.  Sadly, we seem to have placed all our eggs into (the basket of) training pulpit ministers and almost NONE into the vital area of worship ministry.  Please pray for the ministry of training worship leaders!
