On the Road Again! The CIU Ambassador Choir tours Florida
April 8, 2022
Reflections from Ambassador Choir Director Bryce Thompson
In April, I had the honor of taking the CIU Ambassador Choir on its first spring tour in nearly 30 years.ÌýThe choir travelled for six days to minister in churches and schools in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, Brooksville, and Orlando, Florida.Ìý
Whether they were leading a worship service, recording in a beautiful stone cathedral, or singing under the baton of a sixth grade student conductor, the choir students sang with energy and passion.ÌýÌý
What is truly impressive about this group of students is their desire to worship Jesus in everything that they do.ÌýYou can see it on their faces as they sing on stage, but even more impressive is the way in which they minister to one another.ÌýThese students know that worship occurs in our daily steps and is often exhibited in our words and actions.Ìý
To lead this group is an encouragement and a blessing.ÌýTouring with them was a daily reminder thatÌýwhatever we do, we should work at it with all our heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, because we know that it isÌýthe Lord Christ we are serving!
CIU consistently ranks among the Top Regional Universities in the South by U.S. News & World Report, as well as a Best Value Regional University in the South.ÌýÌýor request information on enrollment by contacting Admissions at (803) 807-5024 orÌýadmissions@ciu.edu.ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý
