We are pleased to begin announcing the line up for the next Mid-Atlantic Worship Expo. On Friday night, Billy & Cindy Foote will be leading our opening worship session. Billy's songwriting credits include "You Are God Alone (Not A God)," "Sing To The King," You Are My King (Amazing Love)," just to name a few. Billy will also be leading our first-ever song writing workshops during the Saturday breakouts.
The Footes will be joined by Gerrit Gustafson, author of The Adventure of Worship, as our Conference Pastor and keynote speaker. Gerrit served as a church planting pastor and teacher for 15 years before becoming part of the original Creative Team of Integrity Music in 1985. He is currently leading seminars and working with his company, Whole-Hearted Worship.
Saturday's workshops are going to be nothing short of amazing in 2008. We have a few surprises for those who are Worship Expo regulars. Also new for 2008, we will be featuring a new, stream-lined registration process that will enable participants to easily see and manage their groups. The workshops and registration information will be released within a few days.
I am both a guitarist and a singer/songwriter and am thrilled that both songwriting and guitar will be covered this year. My only hope is that these sessions will not be scheduled for the same time. We (the Colonial Baptist Church, CBC Praise Band) have been attending for two years and are looking forward to the 2008 Worship Expo. We have always come back feeling spiritually rejuvenated and ready to present a more excellent instrumental praise offering unto the Lord. May the Lord bless these endeavors.
