Restore Worship Conference

Our Senior Pastor Nate Holdridge speaks on Exodus 31:1-6, 35:34, 39:43 with a message entitled “The Right People For The Right Job”.

Our senior pastor Nate Holdridge leads a workshop on how to have a personal worship life with the Lord.

This year we kicked off our Restore Conference with a Night of Worship and a short message by Pastor Matt Kehler.

Our special guest Joseph Pfeifer from Calvary Santa Barbara leads a workshop on the Acoustic Guitar.

Finding the right parts to play, using dynamics, and having chemistry can be tough, especially with a volunteer team of musicians. Calvary Monterey’s Worship Team will be playing live and explaining how Drums, Bass, Acoustic, Electric, Keys, and Vocals can use dynamics and parts to color a song. They’ll also show how to take songs and apply them to a smaller band setting.

Evan is a very talented and creative songwriter who has released multiple studio albums and written many worship songs being sung in the global church. In this workshop, he’ll share about his songwriting process and how you can grow as a songwriter.

This workshop is taught by Calvary Monterey’s Tech Director Bernhard Klingenberg. In this workshop, you will learn about different worship lyric software solutions used for projecting lyrics during a worship service, utilizing video media in a service, as well as some design concepts to help ensure teaching and media slides are engaging and effective.

In this workshop, we’ll discuss how personal preparation coupled with the knowledge of using audio mixing tools can honor God in our Sunday services. Overviews of troubleshooting, EQ, soundcheck, and rehearsals will be provided in addition to Q&A.

With so much to do, it can be overwhelming to plan ahead and stay organized. In this workshop Brenton Collyer, Calvary Monterey’s Worship Pastor and Creative Director, will share some tools to help you host auditions, care for volunteer teams, plan services, and choose set lists.

In this acoustic guitar workshop, Tim Brown will offer up ideas regarding dynamics, technique, and chord voicing that he hopes will challenge you to continue to grow and improve as a musician and as a worship leader. Originally from a small town 30 minutes north of Los Angeles, Tim has been involved in leading worship for several churches over the past 15 years, including 6 years here at Calvary Monterey. His experience will add value to both the beginner and intermediate level musician.
