Did you know that Massive Worship is famous for our epic and profound rap and hip-hop, not to mention our interpretive dance...? Boom-boom chic, ba- boom-boom chic... Well, maybe not. Anyway, that's not the kind of rap I'm talking about, and not even the wrapping of beloved presents from St. Nicholas... And in no way would we ever encourage interpretive dance outside of your living room... But I'm talking about the incredible closing celebration of something tremendously amazing that has happened these past few months: the Massive Worship pilot music ministry team!
After 4 months of forging new ground and encountering territory never before discovered, our Massive Worship band (Jesse, Sean, April, Heather and Suzi) have finalized their Massive Worship adventure and moved onto the next stage in life. This is Mairin by the way, and I will be vulnerable with you now and tell you how much I miss this wonderful team of talented and skilled worshippers, and how proud I am of each one and for their perseverance and great work they accomplished across Ontario, and even Quebec! From Ottawa to Montreal, Metcalfe to Essex, Sault Ste. Marie to Thunder Bay to Fort Frances, to Barrie, this team has done so much in their short stint of intense music ministry. God is so good!
Last week, the 9 of us Massive Worship staff and team took some time to rest, unload, and celebrate this project while taking retreat at the Divine Mercy Centre in Lanark, ON. It was great to spend time togther as Massive Worshippers, and to thank God for all that he's done in us and through us, and to look forward to what he has instore for us individualy and for Massive Worship as a whole.
On Saturday last week, we had our final closing mass and celebration with all our NET staff, friends, family, and supporters of Massive Worship. Thanks to Fr. Joe and Fr. Terry for celebrating with us! It was great, and so full of hope. This semester was a pilot project, but the response across Ontario has been so positive and receptive, and we have so much demand for Massive Worship across the country that we are pretty sure that we will do this again, and hopefully for a full 9 months. Thank you for all your prayers and support! Praise God!
