Leading worship

Last Sunday’s service was down on the circuit plan as being “local arrangement” which usually means that we have a local lay preacher take the service. A small group of us from the church took part in a leading worship course last year, and our minister felt this was an ideal opportunity for us to use those skills and organise the service. There were four of us leading different parts of the service – I was leading the final part and was really nervous beforehand. Despite the nerves, I actually enjoyed doing it and would definitely do it again if asked.
