Believe it or not, but this was my first chance to lead worship at our Erie site of McLane Church, which happens to meet Sunday evenings at 5:00 at The Cell Block, which is a very large bar. Thus the nickname, “church-in-a-bar.”

The great thing about that environment in the center of the city is the pallatable “turning back the darkness” experience that you feel as you worship the Savior. And indeed we did worship!

The small and stellar band:

  • Ron Yarmin: Acoustic Guitar
  • Brian Boleratz: Bass
  • Brandt Fuller (Dir. of Worship): Acoustic Guitar/Vocals
  • Joel Natalie: Worship Leader/Vocals

The familiarity of the set had them singing:

  • Friend of God/Phillips, Craig & Dean
  • Medley in E:
    • Open the Eyes of My Heart
    • Sometimes By Step (just chorus & alt chorus)
    • Here I Am to Worship (chorus & bridge only)
  • Wonderful, Merciful, Savior/Selah (a bit faster & fuller than recording)
  • Revelation Song

Thanks for the privilege to be with everyone at “church-in-a-bar!”
