Join us this Sunday evening, Dec. 2, at 5 p.m. at Crossway Church as we “Celebrate the Birth of Christ” through worship and art.
This year we are excited to add the talents of prophetic artist Amy Rylander to our musical.
Rylander, along with her husband, Donald, are the senior leaders of We Are Activation Center in Jackson. She has a call to gather and unify the Body of Christ as well as facilitate racial reconciliation. Amy is a powerful voice in the Body of Christ calling forth the bride into the fullness of her divine destiny.
She is a prophetic artist and teacher as well as a governmental intercessor. Her passion is helping people discover their true identity in Christ and teaching all ages how to hear the voice of God, discover hidden gifts and talents, and how to flow with the Holy Spirit and paint prophetically.
In 2004 the Lord spoke to Rylander and told her he wanted her to use art to worship him and to advance his kingdom in the earth. She has no formal art training, but the Lord has taught her by his Spirit.
The Lord has used Rylander's art to speak to people, his church and into government. She has painted for the governor and first lady of Mississippi, senators, representatives and mayors. She paints and teaches internationally, in churches, conferences, retreats, weddings, hospitals, businesses and political events. She also paints personal prophetic paintings.
The Rylanders, who have been married over 25 years, live in Madison with their three sons.
Musical Details
This musical will be somewhat different than others that we have had in the past, not just with the addition of art but with the arrangement of music as well. As with everything we do at Crossway, it is inspired by the Holy Spirit and we are sure that you will receive a blessing.
As always, the musical is live with our very own Crossway Singers and Musicians. This year we are excited to have violinist Autumn Dean back with us from Mathiston.
Some of the music includes some of the most popular Christmas music that is being sung today, such as “Emmanuel, God With Us Forever” featuring Courtney Hall; “He Shall Reign Forevermore” featuring Nathaniel South; “Midnight Clear (Love Song)” featuring Heather Hall; “The Lord Is With You” featuring Chris Ray, Sammy and Heather Hall; “While You Were Sleeping” featuring Britt Goodin; “Somewhere In Your Silent Night” featuring Conner Goodin; and forever favorites such as “Heaven’s Child” and “Mary, Did You Know?” featuring Karen Ray and Britt Goodin; and “All Is Well” featuring Angela Curry.
Along with other songs of the season we know you and your family will be blessed as we come together and worship our Savior and King this Christmas season.
Doors will open at 4 p.m. this Sunday and art will be available on display and to purchase from Rylander for those who are interested. There is no charge for this event. A love offering will be received for Rylander and her ministry. To preview any of her art you may visit her website at www.amyrylander.com.
