Jam Session?

What happened to the Wednesday night jam session? It's a question I've been getting a lot lately. So let's take a look at its short life. Muzzle Guitars owner and I were talking and worked on the idea together. No sales. Free coffee. People could bring their instruments or use the stores for free. Fellowship, praise and worship. A different idea to reach out to the music community, who largely don't feel welcome in a log of churches. A way to mix the music and church community while spreading the gospel. We were creating a new house of worship for the church to reach out.

It had a lukewarm start and started to build. Really, it was surprising to see who would come in. Who would stay. Then it tapered off. The feedback wasn't because of the service. It was because it was the end of the school year. People were tied up going to graduations, graduation parties, going out of town to help their kids move back home from college. There were some from the start that would infrequently come out because they were attending services or bible studies at their own places of worship. So the decision was made to put things on hold for a couple weeks, and then start back up in the summer. Everything was on track to start back up. 

Then an unexpected notification was given. Sadly, Muzzle Guitars were closing their doors for good. So, at this time, we no longer have the facility to continue that service. Nor do we have the equipment to cater to so many people. Prayerfully, one day that will change, and we'll at least have the space to accommodate musicians bringing their own equipment and getting back to the fellowship. For now though, I thank Eddie, Misael, and the Muzzle Crew for their friendship, support, and love. I ask that we all pray for them as they move into a new chapter in their lives. 

Keep making that joyful noise for the Lord.
