Day 2

     I just finished my second full day here at Northland Church in Orlando. I am already amazed by the people and community of believers a part of this church and the relationships I've made so far. The Lord is sooo good! Yesterday consisted of lots of orientation time and information shock. Our fun outing surprise together...drum roll please...GO KARTS! We had some pretty intense competition on the "slick track" at the Lil500 go kart track! The rest of the day consisted of more information and sitting in on the Monday night service. I sat in the video control room for last night's service with two other interns, completely astounded by the work and creativity that goes into the video production for just one service. I've never seen any church use media and tech like Northland does! Every ounce of creativity and work that goes into a worship service is purposed to create the best atmosphere to help people truly engage in worship and experience the brilliance of the God we serve. It's also really neat to see how the Northland staff works hand in hand to achieve this!
     So today began with an interview, meeting time with the three main guys taking care of us interns: Sarah, Pete, and Sean. The rest of the day consisted of lots of time spent with the worship interns. Pete went through a typical week in the life of the worship department. Around 2PM we all met with Tim, the main worship pastor, and Teresa and Laurie, two of the sweet ladies over vocals. Each of us sang for them and answered lots of questions, getting to know them better. After that, anna and I headed back to my host home to rest after a LONG day. For some reason I've been really exhausted today. I guess I'm still recovering from the travel and getting used to the new schedule. So far, I have been blown away by everything that's happened in only two days. I'm so blessed.
