Using their talents

The fourth Sunday "belongs" to the Quail Springs Church of Christ youth group. Volunteers who get to serve at Cross & Crown get slightly possessive (in a gentle way) about "their" week because it is such a privilege and a blessing to be able to participate in this ministry.

For many people who can't visit during the week, Sunday nights are a great time to come and see what is happening and how God is working at Cross & Crown.

This month, these high schoolers did an outstanding job in leading worship, straight from their hearts.

They led several contemporary worship songs like All in All and Open the Eyes of My Heart ... but still, nothing seems to move the members of the audience like Amazing Grace, as it did again tonight.

When it's led, everyone sings, and the deep tones of the men in the audience, some who live near the river in a camp, some who are drunk and want help, rise up above the music.

...how sweet the sound.
