WORSHIP ORDER OUTLINE
PRE-SERVICE - A special vocal or instrumental piece.
OPENING WORSHIP SET (3 or 4 tunes usually end with a more prayerfulor meditative peace to bring folks "down" to hearing the Word
MESSAGE RESPONSE/OFFERING - Sometimes a congregational piece, sometimes a special, usually not a "rocker" though
COMMUNION - Again, generally a slower more meditative piece during distribution.
SEND - Almost always a very upbeat tune
REPRISE - Most always the chorus (or other logical start) of theprevious piece
