Paying My Respect

Posted by Church Video Ideas under Churches, Intros and Announcements, Random Thoughts

I have been blessed and encouraged many times over the last 6 years to be led in worship by Vanessa Whitwell at Fellowship Church. I also learned from her in several workshops over the years at the C3 Conference.

I was stunned and saddened this week to learn that she died at the age of 34 from a brain hemorrhage. I had just recently met with the creative planning team at Fellowship Church and had lunch with their worship pastor, Pace. I had mentioned to Pace how much I love hearing Vanessa sing and what a blessing she was. She will be greatly missed. I ask that you pray for her family.

Keep praising Him, Vanessa!

    She conducted some of the sessions I attended at C3 a couple of years ago. I thought she was great, and I loved her voice.

    Sad for us, but she’s receiving her reward. Thanks for letting us know.
