Sing to Him a new song!

I love music...especially Christian music. How awesome is it that we get to praise our Lord through all types of music. Whether listening, participating, or leading, we are allowed the chance to glorify our God and grow closer to Him through that wonderful thing called music!

Calvary's Mission of the Month is Lutheran Summer Music. Through this program, qualified band, orchestra, choir, piano and organ students completing grades 8-12 from all faith backgrounds have the opportunity to participate in a summer music camp held at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. (Donations to Calvary's Mission of the Month help support the program.) Are you or do you know a high school student with musical gifts who might be interested in a program like this? Click the link to go to the Lutheran Summer Music website. You can get information about the program as well as details about how to apply.

Are you more interested in a more contemporary Christian music summer program? Check out Camp Electric! The camp is awesome. Students age 13-19 have the opportunity to learn from their favorite Christian artists. My son attended the first year the camp was offered and had a blast! The camp was so popular that they now offer it two different weeks. Click the link and be sure to check out the instructors and artists/speakers links.

Here's some music for you right now...
MercyMe is one of my favorite contemporary Christian groups and here they sing one of my favorite hymns:



Want to see them live? They're scheduled to be at Lifest 2011, another "don't miss" summer event!!

Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. ~Psalm 33:3
