In (February) 2011, the Miami Vineyard Community Church worship team gathered with their 2000-plus member congregation for a night of worship unlike that found in most other local churches. Under the direction of P. Jorge Respeto, the group led the church in an evening of worship music, mixing the diverse cultural and musical influences of Latin America, the Caribbean and southern United States. The experience was described by some as a "bi-lingual liturgy filled with many flavors".
Miami, Florida is a city with a rhythm all its own. On any given weekend in Miami you can hear that rhythm pouring through the windows of cars, clubs, restaurants and yes, some churches. For five services (two Saturday night and three Sunday morning) the worship team at Miami Vineyard Community Church blends the musical traditions of its diverse congregation. "Our church has members from every part of Miami's culture and we want them all to be able to connect with the love of Jesus Christ no matter what musical or religious tradition they are coming from," said Respeto.
The album entitled MIAMI VINEYARD LIVE features new arrangements of popular songs from the Vineyard Music catalog ("Lord Reign in Me", "If You Say Go") as well as several original songs written by members of the worship team ("Holy Spirit Come", "Gloria A Dios Solo"). The album is filled with varied musical accents: Latino claves, gospel two-step, funk, soul and delay-laden rock guitars of modern worship.
