thanx for responding, this was a crazy service. it seems like every church that visits our church they feel like they need to do a concert before the messege. that isnt right. cause when we visit other churches we sing only 2 selections! now there have been times that the church has asked us to do the music for the entire service, which is fine. but we dont do so unless asked. so from now on we might just have the visiting choir do the music for the entire afternoon service and just do our selections during our morning services.
