All For That Audience Of ONE!

Strangely, my blogger posts haven't been cross-posted to my multiply site. I tried to activate it again, and the next day, so many of my old posts also kenah posted there...took me a while to delete them. Well, hopefully it is now properly activated. If this post doesn't get crossed over, might have to go manual. Sianz... So I attended this workshop on Thursday at Trinity @ Paya Lebar - (very long title) Getting the best out of your worship vocals. Arranging vocals, feel, dynamics and presentation. Learnt quite a bit from Wayne Huirua, Worship Pastor from Equippers Church Auckland who was the former Music Director/Producer of Parachute Band. All the things he shared today sounded a chord within me which further engrave the convictions I felt regarding the Worship Ministry - who we are and our responsibility as ministers serving God's people.

Saying "No"

It's been a long week of stuff going on in my life this week which led to the Arts Leadership Camp 2009.

As far as I'm concerned, the change doesn't mean much except more admin work to review the whole work document and developmental history of this project. I'm more particular about the content and what it has to offer to my arts leaders. I was quite happy with how the programme turned out, and what I thought it might have meant for some. The human turn out was quite a disappointment, considering that this is more than a fun camp and the participants were expected to be of higher calibre. Some things can't be helped, and some can...hence the disappointment. One thing I tried to emphasize in the camp as part of leadership quality is that of ACCOUNTABILITY, though not necessarily a trait just for leaders, but for one
