A special welcome to all the new members to the August 2003 newsletter - we have finally cracked 10,000 people receiving the newsletter! 

 

 


Barry Collecutt

 

Barry and Terri Collecutt are a husband and wife team who have been involved in music ministry for over 15 years.  They have a desire to see people experience the power and presence of God through worshiping Him.  Their songs have come from times of worship in their own devotional lives.  Their prayer is that as you worship Him, you would experience His presence and a renewed thirst for Him. 

 


Thirsty Child

Mike Ash and the boys from Thirsty Child are back with more of their “grass roots, raw and untouched” worship tunes.  According to Ash”, we are all a little hungry and thirsty and we try to satisfy those needs with things.  So our hope is that when people hear this project, they realize that God loves them more than they ever thought He could, and what they hunger for is Him and to be in His presence.  He will not only satisfy us, but fill our lives.”

Songwriters networking and Psalm 149.com

 

There has been a lot of great discussion and networking going on the ShareSong.org Songwriters List recently, with nearly 200 songwriters sharing tips and offering some creative critique for each other’s new material. 

 

Flowing out of this, Psalm149.com is a new song writing and home recording site that focuses on taking music from creation to production.  The vision of the site is to allow people who desire to glorify God in music and give them a common arena to work together in online collaborations, thus enabling people from all over the world, with different gifts and skill levels, to participate and help one another create perhaps the next generation of free praise and worship.
