DisciplesNet Worship # 9, Kite strings (Phelps, 01.01.2011)
Join us for worship this New Year's Sunday where DisciplesNet pastor Deborah Phelps gives a brief message about "Kite strings"....and a God of connections who calls us to "Mend, tend, and extend" our networks with others. The video also features some New Year's blessings by some of our ministry team, and sing-along Christmas music for this Sunday following Christmas. Our time opens with "I Wonder As I Wander," arranged and played on guitar by Dean Phelps, and closes with Dean and Twana A. Harris singing, "Silent Night."
Scriptures for our worship are Ecclesiastes 3:1-13 and Matthew 25:31-40. Our 28-minute time together includes a short time of communion to join in, or to use as a time of reflection. We hope and pray that God speaks to you through this short worship time. May God bless you in this new year!
