Welcome to
Monterey Church of Christ

  LEA Convention in 2010 will be Feb 26- 27 

   

The guest speaker will be Dr. Mark Scott, Academic Dean @ Ozark Christian College in Joplin, MO.   He is a very sought after speaker.  This year we will be meeting at the South Baton Rouge Church of Christ in Baton Rouge in a unified effort between our "instrumental" and "non-instrumental" family.  I'm sure that is as exciting to some of you as it is to us.  I hope both of these pieces of news gets you a little excited for a great event to come.   Mark your calender. 

Prayer Request:  Please ask that God would already begin to work in our convention especially in our convention team as we plan this year's convention. The convention team is excited to announce to you our theme for the 2010 Louisiana Christian Convention.  Our theme is: 

"One"

ONE Faith, ONE Body, ONE Lord

We picked our theme from Ephesians 4:4-6 which says, "There is one body and one spirit - just as you were called to one hope when you were called-one faith, one Lord, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all, though all, and in all."   

 Vocal Union concert Friday night @ 9 pm.  For more info on them go to www.vocalunion.com

Vocal Union is an all-vocal, contemporary Gospel group from Nashville,
Tennessee.  They began as a group of studio interns in 1995 experimenting
with recording vocal arrangements of traditional gospel music.  The sound
they produced found a niche in many churches around the country, and the
decision was made in 1998 to make Vocal Union a touring group.  Since that
time, Vocal Union has traveled extensively, performing for special church
events, community concerts, and fundraisers. The group primarily travels
throughout the United States, but has also ventured to select venues in
Canada and Jamaica. Vocal Union has performed at a wide variety of venues
including a performance of sacred Christmas music at Carnegie Hall in
December of 2005 in Manhattan, New York, and two performances at the White
House Christmas celebration in Washington, D.C. in December of 2006.  The
group's fan base has spread worldwide through distribution by Word Records.
Fans from Iceland, Nigeria, Brazil, and many other countries all over the
world have signed the group's online guest book and illustrate Vocal Union's
strong international appeal.
