Build Better Worship Team Practices
“We love chaotic, unproductive worship practices that lead to frustration”
Said No One Ever!
As the Worship Leader, you’ve got a limited amount of time to get the team ready for the worship service. Use this workbook to build a better worship team practice so that everyone feels effective and productive on the worship team!
God brought together a group of women who love to worship Jesus Christ. Individually, each woman’s story is unique in her season of life, where she worships, and how she was spiritually formed. Collaboratively, God holds them together woven with the threads of unity and love (Col 1:17).
The Thread includes Tammy Haney, Ericka Johnson, Audrey Satterfield, and Amy Satterfield. Through singing and playing, these ladies desire to bring women into the presence of God worshiping together as the Body of Christ. Though they are a contemporary praise band, they love to incorporate both new and traditional songs into their worship sets. Collectively, they have several years of experience leading worship and can meet the specific needs of your special service or women’s event. The Thread would love to worship you! Find them on Facebook here.
