A Message from Bro. Fitzpatrick

Dear WAY Choir Members:

Thanks again for such an incredible time we had on WAY Choir tour this year! I’ve been living in the afterglow and thanking God for what He did this year.

The WAY Choir has been asked to sing at TWO Campmeeting services, Thursday, August 2, and Friday, August 3. We will do songs from this year’s tour. This is a great honor for the WAY choir to be asked to sing again this year!

EVEN IF you DID NOT go on Tour, you are needed to sing with us at Campmeeting. need EVERYONE to come to Campmeeting to sing. I KNOW this is a sacrifice for you to get there, and it is NOT EASY, but please - MAKE THE EFFORT!!

Please RESPOND to this e-mail to confirm that you are going to be at Campmeeting. Thanks SO MUCH for your help with this matter!

1. Campmeeting Repertoire - Learning Songs/Parts – Action Required
1. Forever Faithful
2. Great Things In Store For Me
3. Holy, Holy Holy Is the Lord
4. I Am So Grateful
5. I Bless Your Name
6. I’m A Pentecostal
7. My Life Is Not Mine, It’s Yours
8. Over There
9. Something Special About That Name
10. Standing On The Promises of God (maybe)
11. There Is A Name
12. We’ve Come To Magnify The Lord (Rizn)
13. Why Not Trust God Again
14. You Are Welcome Here (Livingstons)

2. Choir Rehearsal – Thursday Afternoon, August 2, 2007 at the Tent At Campmeeting.
We will do a choir rehearsal on Thursday afternoon at the tent at Campmeeting. I’ll send you the EXACT TIME in another e-mail as soon as I know what the time will be.

To help us learn parts quickly, we will break out into sections, rehearse 3 songs and then reassemble to perfect those three. We will take a break, and then repeat the same process with the next three songs.

3. Clothes and Robes
We will wear robes for Campmeeting. But, after we sing, you will be removing your robe and we want to make sure that the clothing you are wearing is appropriate for the situation. During the performance, any clothing with a collar will be visible. So here are the guidelines. When the choir is singing, wear only WHITE shirts/blouses. We don’t want to see orange, green, blue or any other color except black, white or black/white. You would REALLY stand out! During the altar service, we will be praying with seekers and you will want to remove your choir robe, and you will want to be dressed appropriately. The goal is for us to look like ONE uniform black/white unit with the robes on. WHEN YOUR ROBES ARE OFF, YOUR CLOTHES SHOULD LOOK LIKE YOU ARE GOING TO CHURCH.

4. MONEY, MONEY, MONEY
Some people did not receive their lunch money (for Saturday) from Tour. I will give it to you at Campmeeting. I also will give the Tour members the last day’s lunch money, but you need to be at Campmeeting to get it!

5. Most Importantly – Be In Prayer/Fasting for Campmeeting – Action Required
Thank you for praying for the choir for the tour. Please also spend some additional time in focused prayer and let’s prepare our hearts so that God can minister to others through us. Thank you for fasting for the Tour on the Fridays. LET’S ALSO FAST AGAIN THIS FRIDAY, JULY, 27, 2007 UNTIL 3:00 PM.

We MUST have the ANOINTING OF THE HOLY GHOST upon us to minister and for our Lord to accomplish His work through us! The most important thing about Camp is WHAT HAPPENS SPIRITUALLY IN THE SERVICES. We want MANY people to receive the Holy Ghost and be blessed!

God bless each one of you. If you have any questions, concerns or ideas, please contact me.
