Tim and Maryl had a great time with the whole worship team at Life Center in Centralia, Washington, March 6 & 7 along with Pastor Derrill Corbin. This church has literally gone through the flood in December 2007 where they lost their whole building and most of their equipment. Now, in temporary facilities and looking to rebuild elsewhere, the church has kept their eyes on Jesus and the spirit of worship and faith abounds in this great congregation.
We had two nights of worship, teaching and flowing together that stretched the team but showed that they truly want to grow in Christ both in spirit and in giftings. By the end of the seminar, the whole team was flowing together in song and had a great prophetic spirit brewing among them. Michael and Amanda O’Neill are leading the team and have a good sense of leadership and enthusiasm that keeps this young team going. Pastor Derrill Corbin has a great pastoral spirit that encourages and releases his team.
We look forward to having another follow-up seminar in the near future. Expect to hear even more good things coming out of Centralia soon.
Here are some scriptures the Lord gave me for this great church:
- when the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard Is.59:19
- For my expectation is from Him. Ps.62:5
- Php 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
- Psa 32:6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him. 7 You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance.
Your Worship Missionaries,
Tim and Maryl Smith
- “We have had Tim and Maryl here to work with our team and without a doubt it was beneficial. We often think of the need to have spiritual fathers speak into the local church, but have you considered, we need worship fathers to deposit in the worship team as well? Paul wrote in 1 Cor 4:15 “For though you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.” Tim has a father’s heart to build the local church. He will certainly benenfit most any team who desires to go to a higher level.” Pastor Derrill Corbin – Senior Pastor, Life Center, Centralia, WA
