Elevate School of Worship 2012



                It’s been AMAZING to make new friendships with exciting new church movements such as CRAVE in Oakland/Waterville and Redemption Hill in Lewiston/Auburn. There are precious men and women of God who are helping set the stage for the revival that will come to Central Maine soon, and is already happening in pockets all over New England.
                We are staying on track with our commitment to the School of Worship in Kona, Hawaii through 2012 and will be assisting as staff this September. With the SOW God is equipping and sending out dozens of worship leaders into numerous nations that are hungry for authentic worship and longing for God to pour out His Spirit over their cities.
              
These are some of the areas of focus for the Elevate School of Worship that starts in September:


  The Motive for Worship - love for Jesus
- Passion for Jesus
- Character of God
- Personal Freedom
- The Character and Lifestyle of the Worshiper

 The Meaning of Worship - Biblical Foundations
- Biblical and Historical Basis for Worship
- Prophetic aspects of Worship
- Worship, Intercession and Spiritual Warfare
- The Gifts of the Holy Spirit and the Supernatural

The Method of Worship - Practical Skills
- Intro to songwriting, musicianship and recording
- Worship Leading and Teamwork
- Cross cultural Worship Expressions
- Taking it to the Nations - setting up prayer houses

  • Our Urgent Needs


                  We're finishing out our trip to Maine and financially speaking we have not raised any new support, in fact we're seeing a decline in both monthly support and in gifts. We're asking our friends and family to prayerfully consider supporting our family as we are preparing to help run another worship school a little over a month from today. Our urgent needs are...

  1. Return flight airfare -  About $1600 
  2. $900 minimum monthly expenses ( We currently have $300 raised, $1200 necessary)
