Worship Under the Stars, 2007 ???
Worshipers!
Hope you are doing great. I wanted to post a blog update here on the Worship Under the Stars site about some things that are happening with Worship International and myself personally.
First, in case you didn’t hear, I joined the incredible staff at Saint Simons Community Church back in March as the full-time Worship & Music Director. It’s been a blast, and I’m excited to be serving the Kingdom in this local church. SSCC, Pastor David, and the Elders have been great supporters of Worship International and WUTS over the last two years since it’s launch.
Thanks also to those who supported me with “votes” and “plays” over the last many months. I was honored with the “Worship Artist of the Year, 2007″ Momentum Award a few weeks ago in Nashville, TN at the Christian Indie Alliance Summit.
More news and updates have been posted in my newsletter on my blog site. (check it out)
Now … onto the headline … “Worship Under the Stars, 2007″.
We have been praying about this and would ask that you join us. Every year, I’m asked if we are going to do this event again. Each year, we have to seek God and hear His voice - as we don’t want it to become a “dead work” or an “annual event” that you do “just because people expect it”. We want God’s desire, His vision, and His purpose.
Earlier in the year, I really didn’t feel any sense that we’d need to do it again this year, but lately I’ve been thinking about it and my heart has begun to “burn” for it once again. I was privileged to attend a concert featuring “Hillsong United” last Tuesday night and I was so empowered and encouraged that night, and came back with more vision for a 2007 event. So now, I’ve been asking our Board of Directors to join me in personal prayer for God’s will to known to us, and we ask for your prayers as well.
JUST IN CASE, we’ve already “saved the date” … in the event that after our prayer we have the “green light”, we’ve chosen Saturday, Sept 15 … ONE NIGHT, OUTDOORS (weather permitting) in the Jekylll Island Amphitheater. I realize this limits the number of attenendees but we feel strongly this is the way to do it.
So, let us know - post your comments here and “save the date”. Do you have the vision? Do you feel the need, and would you attend?
Post your comment here, and let us know!
God is great - and let Him be great through you today!
For the Kingdom,
Fred McKinnon, Worship Leader, Pianist, Producer
Worship International, Inc., Highest Praise Productions, Inc.

I’d LOVE LOVE LOVE to open, if possible - I’m really excited about what I’m doing with Saint Lewis right now and we could easily have our demo finished by then. I think we could be a good addition, since our band is made up of musicians from the worship teams of St. Simons Community Church, Brunswick Christian Renewal, Family Life Church, First Baptist Church, & The Chapel. Anyway, if it worked out that would be AMAZING.

Hey Fred, I was Blessed to be able to attend last year but was in a rush to visit my Grandchildren down in Jacksonville. I sincerely hope that you will be able to put it in again this year. September sounds like a great time to spend a week down in St. Simons.

We brought our youth group to the event last year and we were truly blessed. We would love to attend again this year. Much love and prayers!

I for one will be there with bells on if the Lord leads you all to WUTS 2007. I have been blessed the last 2 years. God Bless you all.
