A Sunday Word From Alex The Beat Machine

    
This week was awesome! That is the first thing I want to say. I had  a blast joining in worship this past sunday. The Drums were loud and we started that 830 party with a bang!!! Saturday night setup was awesome too. We have shifts now!! lol I go in as soon as pier 2 movie ends and i have my list of duties that ususally takes about 30 minutes which is really not that much. Then zech comes in and does the same. We both go in with a helper and make this setup thing go by fast! We are still looking to recruit 2 more people who can give us 30 minutes of there help on saturday night setup. Hit me up if you want to help out! 30 minutes to help with setup and be apart of one of the most crucial teams at LPC is priceless, Gods reward is greater than mans! This is not for us, This this is for the people! Ok now Sunday morning before the first service I really felt a peaceful vibe throughout the theatre it kind of felt as if we all got together that morning to pray together. I remember being on tour with Salvador  and right before hitting the stage the guys would gather around and we would pray, once we hit the stage we had this chemistry and I think I felt that same chemistry yesterday. Hopefully soon we can do this together as a team before our first service starts! Set-up is tons of fun especially in the morning, as I looked around the theatre I was happy to see everyone just moving around and working. We all add a piece to the puzzle, we have something very vital that we add in to the mix here at LPC. I think that is awesome!!! My service this week was the 2nd service that is the one i sat in. (When Travis talked about his dog I thought of mine, Rocky. he is going blind but he is still happy, he loves to play and is not sick anymore, I wish it would be cheaper to fix his eye but he is happy so I guess that makes me happy too, hopefully I won’t have to put him down!) OK back the services: I kinda want to sit in the first next week and then maybe the 3rd the following keep a steady flow going not just get stuck in one service or the same routine. I also like being around the new faces at LPC. The 3rd service was good though we did slack in the end as we dismissed, Jesse’s guitar was unplugged by Zechs foot. The people laughed and it felt like being at home with the family, it was no big deal to them. There was this lady in the 3rd service as we started to sing U2 I saw her face light up when we started to sing it, and she sang along, I thought that was really fun to see. I expect next week to be better than the this week on the technical side of things, I also want to try something new with the lighting and one of the screens we have, i promise to make it a surprise. Look out next week for The Cures scary Occtober production! Until next Sunday!! Hey I’ll never lose faith in these guys, Go Bears!!! and also I went 10 for 13 with my NFL picks this week. Not bad for my first week.

 

Baptisms:

I got baptized yesterday!! I had been baptized twice before but never here in Miami, and it was awesome I’m glad I decided to jump in right in the moment. And I’m glad I was able to share with everyone here at LPC, There is a season up ahead that we need to get ready for now, doors are being open and we need to take care of business!! Hanging at the park was a ton of fun, I just wish the sun was out some more, the food was great the conversations were great, now its time to get ready for the fall, time to hit the books. My challenge is “The Forgotten Ways” by Allen Hirsch. That is my book for now, What is yours?
