Ignite the Fire Event: A Real Eye-Opener

Last September 20, 2008 was the 1st Knox Praise and Worship Conference aptly titled "Ignite the Fire". This was really a wake up call to those in the music ministry and even the message was applicable to the other ministries in the church.

There were four of us from Lift Jesus Higher Church (LJHC) that have attended - me (I am the one taking the picture), from the left Leah, Pastora Marissa and Faith. Each attended a different workshops dance, worship leading, voice and guitar.

The first speaker was Rev. Clem Guillermo, he discussed the topic "The Musician and His Family", it was very informative and helped me better understand the music ministry. The event was hosted by Ms. Haydee Sampang and Atty. Edith Santos both from 702 DZAS.

The next speaker was Pastor Henry Santos, he explained the topic "Foundations of Biblical Worship and Music Ministry".

This is where I attended the dance workshops which was after our lunch. It answered my questions on interpretative dancing and has given me insights.

I was blessed to see the above group of kids dancing with their tambourines, the little girl in the middle is really not with the group but was trying hard to imitate them and you can see her smile and pure joy in what she was doing.

To wrap up the event was a question and answer portion, if there were any clarifications that the the participants want to ask the workshop speakers. All of us who participated are waiting for next one.

Congratulations to those who have organized the event, God's blessings be upon you.
