The weather was on everyone&#8217;s mind. The night before it started raining but stopped by morning time. Our service started at 10am and it started downpouring early in the service. We all high-tailed it for cover and held the service in the adjoining picnic area.<\/p>\n<p>In a way it was more beautiful this way. We were all wet and  huddled together, warmed by our common bond of faith. The choir gave a short history of classic hymns, we had a skit, praise music led by Andy Thor on guitar and of course a great message by Pastor Steve Weber.<\/p>\n<p>This is such a great church family and I feel like the luckiest guy in the world to be able to lead their music program. The warmth and commitment of this group is beyond words to me. I think it&#8217;s a very interesting story how I was brought to them. It was not by any work of mine, there was another hand in this. A hand much greater than mine.<\/p>\n<p>Enough of my blabbering&#8230;.here are some photos:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image207\" alt=\"DSC00760.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.conradaskland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/DSC00760.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image206\" alt=\"DSC00758.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.conradaskland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/DSC00758.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image205\" alt=\"DSC00757.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.conradaskland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/DSC00757.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image204\" alt=\"DSC00753.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.conradaskland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/DSC00753.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image203\" alt=\"DSC00751.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.conradaskland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/DSC00751.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mount Vernon Presbyterian Church had their annual outdoor church service in the park today.
