Interesting tidbit for the upcoming service this weekend:

Join us for one of four encouraging services this weekend at Lakewood Church. Marcos Witt, Israel Houghton, Steve Crawford, special guest Christa Black and the Lakewood Choir will lead us in an inspiring time of worship, prayer, and a message from the Bible. Remember to invite your family, friends, and neighbors to come with you.

OK, so if we've got no Cindy this weekend, I guess it's a wise move by my taste to book this new chick. From spinning the samples on her MySpace page, she's got great pipes and some nice tunes to match them with. Also working in her favor ... she blogs. That makes her infinitely cooler if you ask me. Hopefully she'll have some CDs to peddle.

Kudos to the music folks for bringing new talent in to bless us all with.

Oh, another nice add to the weekly email:

Indeed ... congrats, Israel!
