From the back pew

This is what worship looks like at General Assembly 2015!

I sat in the very back of the auditorium/sanctuary so that you could get a feel for the scope of things. Tonight's worship service centered around a series of brief meditations built around a staggering amount of powerful church music. And wouldn't you know it, our old friend (and alum of the Arizona Region) Erin Wathen brought the word to life in a powerful way with her meditation on Isaiah 40. 

And speaking of powerful music, at an after session sponsored by Chalice Press we packed the basement of a local establishment for a session of "Books & Hymns" where reflections from recent Chalice Press authors were combined with festive, sing-a-long renditions of favorite hymns. Check out that crowd!
