You Participate
There are many creative things you can do to craft a weekend worship service at your church. For example, using a Creative Brainstorming Team to plan out a "message series" with thematic music, videos and other events can enhance the experience and help to direct glory to God.

Planning a Worship Service
To allow creative elements to be prepared and used effectively, a generous buffer of time will ease the stress of all who are involved when planning a worship service. Video, audio, lighting, drama, props, and graphics will be fresh, and artists will have time to find solutions to problems and to implement them without the pressure of "this-week" deadlines.
Don't forget that one should be prepared, but also allow the Holy Spirit to move and change at a moment's notice. In the Bible it seems God chooses order over chaos consistently. In my experience, I've seen that God is capable of moving many months in advance, just as well as he can move a few minutes in advance.
It's been well said before: "it's much easier to ditch a plan if God moves than it is to create one if He doesn't."
If you, your pastor, or the creative team feel overloaded with preparing each weekend, and planning a worship service, then ServiceBuilder may be exactly the tool to help you keep on top of it all. Organization, managing volunteers and staff, and handling the everyday preparation is simplified when ServiceBuilder is integrated into your planning.
Of course, with ServiceBuilder you can plan worship services as far in advance as you wish to. Whatever you're trying to do, you will be better able to organize the manpower you have, the music, drama and other elements you're using, as well as the facility issues you need, from one place.
Getting information to your team in a timely way can be one of the more challenging tasks. Perhaps it is hard for people to get hold of you to find out the details of how they're involved each week. There are only so many hours in a week to take care of so many responsibilities. With ServiceBuilder, your volunteers can access the information they need over the Internet. The details of your service, drama scripts, announcements, scripture reading, orders of service, lyrics, music and more can be obtained by anyone with a password, anytime.
Share this idea with your Pastor and creative people in your church and begin the new year by planning your weekend services to be more interactive, exciting, and engaging!
