Our good sister Lisa Hong from Western has kindly typed up her notes from the sermons we heard at May Conference! We thought it would be beneficial for everyone to be reminded of the Word we received to look back and thank our Father. Click on Sermon Notes for the material.

Sing to the Lord a new song…

mayconf — Tue, 23 May 2006 00:30:58 +0000

1 Sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth.

2 Sing to the LORD, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day.

3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

4 For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;
he is to be feared above all gods.

Psalm 96:1-4

If there were songs sung at the retreat that touched your heart (and/or ears :Þ) that you were unfamiliar, with, please post a comment on this post, and your curiosities will be fulfilled~! We will direct you to the proper resources so that you can make that new song a part of your declaration of God's glory.

The following are some songs that may have been new to some of you:

Unashamed – Starfield, from Beauty in the Broken
He Knows My Name – Tommy Walker, from iWORSHIP
Yahweh – Shawn McDonald, from Simply Nothing
The Hand that Holds the World – Starfield, from Beauty in the Broken

If there are other songs that you recall bits and pieces of that you'd like to know, or if you would like sheet music for any song, feel free to comment here, as well.

Big ups to praise team

mayconf — Tue, 23 May 2006 00:09:40 +0000

Another massive thanks to praise team for their commitment to preparation and prayer for the retreat. You truly were open vessels primed for the Spirit to do His work.

Please feel free to post individual comments of encouragement (or correction 0.o) for the praise team.

How did you like Redeemer College?

mayconf — Mon, 22 May 2006 19:17:45 +0000

We would like to hear from everyone about Redeemer: what was good, what could have been better. Comments are always welcome. Is it worth going back next year? Feel free to share about any of the facets of the conference, be it transportation, food, lodging, etc.

To the administrators

Thank you to York, Mac, and all others who helped out in the administrative elements of the retreat. You all patiently worked through a large heap of hard work, and nothing could have happened without your humble hearts of servanthood.

Also thank you to UT for the fantastic job on the booklets and scheduling~!

The Lord’s Prayer

mayconf — Mon, 22 May 2006 18:23:34 +0000

Did you know that the ACTS way of praying (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication) was developed by pastor Bill Hybels? You can read about it in Too Busy Not to Pray. Another great book by pastor Hybels is Character: Who You Are When No One's Looking.

Let's pray as our Lord prayed~!

Prayer

5"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9"This, then, is how you should pray:
" 'Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
11Give us today our daily bread.
12Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one. 14For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

A big thanks to everyone

Thank you to everyone for coming out to the May Conference! It was such an encouragement to see so many of us come together for the single purpose of worshipping our heavenly Father as one body. As Pastor Brad said, let us begin to take ownership of this body of believers, trusting God to train us and equip us to change the world around us!
