preparing for Big Tent in Saint Louis

May 28, 2017 by Paul Vasile in News

I'm pleased to share a recent article from the Presbyterian Mission Agency focusing on music for this year's Big Tent gathering in St. Louis. It's been a joy to help plan music for a national event of the Presbyterian Church (USA), and I look forward to sharing worship leadership with a wonderful talented, diverse group of musicians this July!

how much paper does a congregation need?

November 07, 2015 by Paul Vasile in Church, Congregational Song, Leadership, Worship

Earlier this year I served as a guest musician at Broadway Presbyterian Church, where their pastor, Rev. Chris Shelton, presented a summer sermon series exploring the context and themes of the New Testament. To begin, we invited the congregation to imagine a time before worship bulletins, before hymnals, even before the letters of Paul and the Gospels were written. We created a worship service that was paperless, participatory and poetic. And we used story telling, communal song and images as primary vehicles for the expression and transmission of faith, like the earliest followers of Jesus.
