Almost forgot, what else is new.

So I was saving my thoughts for a rainy day, but! since tonight was Ministry Appreciation night, I'll share with you my favorite worshipers and ministry teams:

1. Favorite Worshipper: Dominic: I don't mean to offend, but he's tone deaf. That being said he is the most passionate worshiper I know. I respect him, because I'm sure to some extent he knows that he's tone deaf, but that doesn't stop him from worshipping with all his heart and body. I wish I could have an ounce of the joy he must have. The sight of him worshipping often humbles me because I realize that I restrain myself too much because I fear the eyes of men and because I used to be too quick to judge.

2. Favorite Ministry Team: Facilities and Maintenance team. I feel that this team, above all, have a heart of servitude. I feel this way because they don't ever get recognition for their work. Like, creative worship, you see and hear them perform, and it's the same for worship team. Other teams, like docs/pubs/web/refreshments/VA, you see the product of their work and they receive their recognition in that way. Other teams, like hospitality team/finish line are just prevalent and present during the day/their event. But F&M team is almost 100% behind the scenes.

PLUS! they do the dirty work. Literally. But they never get the credit for it. I mean, very rarely do I acknowledge the priviledge of clean restrooms and empty trashcans, etc. They are the ultimate servants I feel. They work humbly and efficiently, with no complaints about doing the tough work that they do. Props to you F&M team.

Don't be offended if your ministry team wasn't listed/isn't my favorite, like P.Seth said, we ALL carry the cross TOGETHER. F&M just has a special place in my heart.
