WHAT A START TO THE 2012 SEASON!!!!!

 

The TCAE landed in Jackson Mississippi late Wednesday night only to rise bright and early for a JAM PACKED rehearsal on Thursday. By 4pm this group had learned four highly technical pieces which ranged from a lyrical dance, timbrel routines, to musical theater production numbers! Other then the occasional "ouch, my muscles hurt" TCAE were professional and got the job done with no complaints!

 

Working alongside the Territorial Band and Territorial Songsters once again allowed us to grow in ministry together. If you ask any member of the three groups, you will get a glowing response as to how the Holy Spirit did a mighty work over this special weekend.

 

Captains Ken and Jessie Chapman worked tirelessly to prepare for the grand opening of the Jackson corps, while serving as outstanding hosts along the way. We are so grateful for their care and how they have opened their hearts to the call of Christ in their lives!

 

TCAE looks forward to June when they will meet again to prepare for the Territorial Commissioning!

 

Praise God for the blessings He outpoured in and through us in Jackson!!
