Worship Ministry Highlights: A Year of Praise and Growth
WRITTEN BY alecs atkinson
Every Sunday, we have the incredible privilege of encountering the Lord together in worship. We are constantly amazed at how God moves during these times, and we remain expectant for even more!
It has been such an exciting year for our worship team, highlighted by the release of our live album, Open Up The Gates. Songwriting is at the heart of what we do, and we felt God calling us to create songs that glorify Him and equip our church to sing His praises with our own voice. It has been amazing to see how God gifts each of us differently and to witness us working together to release this album. We pray that these songs have blessed KCC and will continue to do so.
Another major highlight was Newday! We took part of our team to lead worship there, which is always a profoundly moving experience. It was such a privilege to see young people encounter Jesus and respond in worship. We shared our song Make Way, and it was incredible to see our desire to see the next generation know Jesus resonate with so many churches across the nation.
For us as a team, Sundays are not just dates on a rota—they are opportunities to encounter God afresh. This year, we’ve seen Him move powerfully, week by week. We make it a priority to leave space for God to speak during worship, laying down our own plans and inviting Him to take the lead. In doing so, we’ve witnessed the Holy Spirit move in ways beyond what we expected.
Times of worship at KCC are beautiful opportunities for us to lead, and we are so grateful for all that God has done in, through, and for us this year. Our prayer is to go even deeper into His presence and for our church to dive headfirst into all that He has for us in worship!
