Psalm 150 (The Message)

Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy house of worship, praise him under the open skies; Praise him for his acts of power, Praise him for his magnificent greatness; Praise with a blast on the trumpet, praise by strumming soft strings; Praise him with castanets and dance, praise him with banjo and flute; Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum, praise him with fiddles and mandolin. Let every living, breathing creature praise God!
Hallelujah!

Getting Started Again!

What a great service yesterday morning at New Beginnings. X-ALT! did an all music service and from all the positive comments that followed it seems we were able to touch a lot of hearts. I recieved this e-mail this morning from Theresa Thomas...

"Heard nothing but great comments yesterday even from a lot of people who don't usually "get in" to the music service. Everyone left with a "great feeling of worship" yesterday. We so appreciate you guys!!! Tony turned 42 yesterday and he said "I got a really great concert for my birthday this morning"!"

We love it when something we do touches people and this program was especially special to us as it marks the return of X-ALT! to doing what it has always been our plan to do. To take the word, the music and the blessings that God has given us all to people everywhere, whenever and wherever they will have us.

X-ALT! will be doing a short set at the Community Easter Event at Antioch Park (off Blue Hole Road) next Saturday (March 27th) hosted by Antioch UMC and Easter Sunday many of us will take part in the Easter Service at New Beginnings Church and we will be joined by a horn section made up of some younger X-ALT'ers. Mark you calendar for this special service that begins at 11:00 am.

Looking to the future we are hoping to be part of some up-comming festivals, we will continue our prison ministry and are in talks with the Nashville Rescue Mission to possibly begin doing a service there. It's looking to be a busy Summer for X-ALT! and that's the way we like it.

Thanks for your prayers for our group, we feel them all!

It was an awesome worship experience! At the end of the service, Bro. Dan (from New Beginnings) called everyone around and prayed over the band to give an official "sending forth to minister", something missing from the exit from our last church! :) Great things are coming!
