SSCC – Night of Worship and Dedication
Posted on February 29th, 2008 in Old-General by Fred McKinnon
Hey Everyone -
Well, it’s last minute – but I just found a breather to say “Come Join Us” for our first official service in the brand new facility of St. Simons Community Church at 2700 Frederica Road. We’re having a Night of Worship and dedication beginning around 6:50 PM.
This is going to be an awesome opening weekend – we’re unveiling a new, state-of-the-art 74,000 ft2 facility, new logos, new artwork and design, new environments, new ministries … everything going to a whole new level!
Tonight’s setlist will include multiple worship leaders, musicians, and special moments with the Pastor, Elders, and other officials.
Walk-In Set:
“I Shall Wear A Crown” – a rockin’ gospel number led by Harriet Jones … I get the privilege of wailing on the grand piano on this tune.
“For All You’ve Done” – led by myself, one of our congregation’s favorites.
Welcome – Prayer, some official stuff, etc.
Opening Set:
“Doxology” – acapella chorus of The Doxology, led by Shannon, which will seque into …
“Again, I Say Rejoice” – led by myself and band, an unbelievably fun song to learn and play, by Israel Houghton
“How Marvelous” (I Stand Amazed), led by Harriet
Reading of Revelation 22:12-end: we’ve been having the Bible read out loud from 9-5 for the last two weeks. Tonight we’ll conclude the last few verses corporately .. should be an awesome moment.
Second Set: (led by Shannon)
“Marvelous Light”
“Sweetly Broken”
Prayer Time, Bible “Capsule”
(a time of prayer and reflecting on the “time capsule” buried underneath the foundation, including a Bible, lots of names of people who need to come to salvation, etc. We’ve GPS’d it and have a lighting cue to shine on it when we talk about it. Incidentally, one of the ladies whose name is in that capsule came to know Jesus as her Lord and Savior … TODAY around NOON!
Third Set: (I get to move from keyboard to grand piano here!)
“Agnus Dei” – Fred
“Holy, Holy, Holy” (Fred)
“Center” – led by Elizabeth
Communion Set:
“You Are My King” (Harriet)
“Here I Am To Worship” (Harriet)
“How He Loves You” (Fred)
Closer:
“How Great is our God” (Fred)
Walk out Jam:
“Again, I Say Rejoice” (Fred)
I’m exhausted, but excited at the same time. Also, I’m taking a leap of faith and ditching the music stand – so will lead tonight with no chords, no music, and no words!
Just for those who are curious about instrumenation, we have:
WL, Keys: Fred McKinnon
WL, A Gtr: Harriet Jones
WL, A Gtr: Shannon Lewis
Drums: Rick Joyce
E. Gtr: Kimbo McMinn
A. Gtr/Leads: Tim Haynes
Bass: Gary Share
Aux Keys/Vocals/WL: Elizabeth Veal
BGV: Larry Wade, Luanne Fendig, Todd Hendrix
and a whole pile of folks running sound, lighting, loops, lyrics, and video!
To God be the glory!
For the Kingdom,
Fred

I am so sad that I will not be able to attend this. It sounds like you have an awesome night of worship planned. You all will be in my prayers and I pray I get to see you all soon!
Sounds like you guys are going to have a lot of fun. Hope those IEMs don’t give you any problems!

Sounds GREAT! Sorry I can’t be there in the “flesh” but will certainly be with you in spirit. I’m sure all who come will have an incredible experience in the Lord tonight!
I love “I Shall Wear A Crown”!
Congrats on the new facility.
Congrats! Wish I could be there.
Wow, I’d be scared to death.
Hi Fred,
Wow, I wish I could be with you guys. Long commute from South Texas though.
Praying for an amazing Night of Worship as you guys dedicate the new facility.

It’s been awhile since I didn’t have a music stand. I wish I could memorize music like I used to.
Fred, It was amazing. Pure amazing. I’ll have pictures up on ChrisMoncus.com asap. For now though, it’s bedtime. We got a church to get ready tomorrow!
Fred, It was awesome last night. Jesus is awesome in our midst. I had a special night with my Jesus last night and He wooed me. I thought about how blessed we are to have you at our church and how God has used you.
Love you Bro and thank God for you.
Your Mom and I were extremely blessed to be there and be a part of what you are all doing! It was indeed an awesome night! Thanks for the invite, and for the hospitality we enjoyed with you, Joy and the kids.
