WorshipGod 2010 Conference

As a member of Nilai's worship team, we're heading to Darmansara Utama Methodist Church (DUMC) for a 3 days worship conference. It's only 5 of us representing our ministry as the others can't leave work/assignments. Glenn Packiam from Desperation Band and Sidney Mohede from True Worshipers are there as speakers and lead workshop, I'm expecting something great.

Car park full early in the morning:

Other than FGA, this is another mega church that I visited so far, it's huge! The auditorium is so big, heard that they have 5 services, 3000 over members and 90+ worship team members. The Yamaha Motif XS7 and KORG Triton on stage are driving me crazy.

Projection of light on the ceiling:

It is announced that, for this workshop, there are almost 700 participants representing 88 different churches. This is awesome, it's my first time joining such a big event. DUMC really worked hard to organize this. Lunch is catered for everyone, it's no easy work.

So many people queuing up for lunch:

Out of all 24 workshops, one could only choose 4 to attend. It's keyboard workshop and building strong worship team that I went for the first day. Pongky, keyboardist from Giving My Best band and the head of Music Worship Ministry in DUMC are sharing some experience in this workshops.

My first 2 workshops:

I wanted to go for songwriting, but seems like song arrangement attracted me more, led by a keyboardist in DUMC. The last one is band dynamics by a music pastor from US. All of us went for different workshops, can't wait when we gather together and discuss about what we learnt.

Second day's workshop:

For the first 2 nights, there are actually worship concert by True Worshippers and Glenn Packiam. We went for both, and the 3rd night attending DUMC's Saturday night service. It was seriously tiring for the continuous ride back and forth from Nilai to KL attending conference whole day, but it seriously worth it.

Some dinners around KL:


"Phinehas and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites."
-Numbers 25:13

Listening to the speakers that experienced the moulding of God through the years, that they have finally come to this stage to touch lives really encouraged us. Pray that we would able to make use of the blessings we received from this workshops and turn it into blessings upon others. Pray this all in Jesus name, Amen.
