Sunday evening was a very special night at Church Requel! We don't often have a guest artist on our platform, but Sunday evening local songwriter and vocalist Brianna Barnes, and her mother, Tamira, joined us for worship. It was such a joy to share the evening with both of them. They also come from a church-planting family: Brianna's dad, Jeff, recently planted New Song Fellowship in Bellville, Ohio. I had the joy of being with them on their first Sunday earlier this summer and heard Brianna sing. (It's not surprising, therefore, that their name is "New Song!") I asked her if she would ever like to come to Church Requel and she immediately and enthusiastically agreed.
For those of you who would like to watch and hear Brianna again (or for those who didn't make it Sunday night), here is a video. We're not really set up to mix sound in post production, so the keyboard is a little loud. However Brianna's voice is so beautiful, it shines through. Also shining through at the beginning of this video is Brianna's story about why she wrote the song. Enjoy!
