    作者:洛根沃纳, 25岁

    I was raised in the Lutheran school system in Wisconsin, growing up around the school where my mom served as a 老师. My high school music director shaped the way I view music in the church and demonstrated how music can help people. I have been involved in worship music since 6th grade and continue to participate in worship at Concordia through Shout, 敬拜的乐队, 唱诗班, and just about any other musical opportunity to praise the Lord! When I become a Director of Parish Music (DPM), I will strive to cultivate a community that encourages open and authentic worship in a biblically sound way that exudes Christ’s love.

    CUI gave me a lot of practical experience leading music in worship. There were so many worship services to participate in: chapel, 学生服务, 撤退, 还有更小的团体活动. Our professors were intentional about placing us in local church environments as well. One church might be small, another large with lots of technology. We even led worship for thousands in a stadium for the National Youth Gathering.

    As a child I attended church, but I never dreamed I would work at one! At heart, I am a composer and I always have seen myself writing music.
