We kicked the new year off this morning at New Community. As you know, we moved back to one service as a church and let me tell you...it was an awesome Sunday on Campus as we came together to worship and learn this morning.
Before I get to the highlights from today, i want to just THANK all the VOLUNTEERS for getting things ready for our gathering today. The Logistics Team, set up our room, our tech/media team prepared all the media and screens, and our Cleaning Ministry cleaned our campus last week...We could not be the Church we are without YOUR investment of time and talent.
Here are the highlights from today.
1. We wrapped up our our Terms of Peace Series this am. We looked at Luke 19:1-10 and learned from Zacchaeus' story. Peace came to his house when he encountered Jesus. This happened because Zacchaeus positioned himself to see Jesus. As we do this, Jesus reminds us of our identity...this helps us have Peace with ourselves continually.
2. Stephen updated us on our Christmas Offering, not only did we reach our goal of 20K, we passed it by over three thousand dollars. We cant wait until next week to share the final number.
3. We kicked off a coat and blanket drive for the less fortunate. Dave Scheel and By His Hands Ministries will be collecting Coats and Blankets every weekend to hand out to those in need during this winter season. Bring your coats and blankets to our worship gatherings...You cant miss where to put them.
4. Falcons Won!
5. We openned a new pre-school environment (ages 3 and 4) for the little ones today. Thanks Pre-School Leadership Team!
6. We saw many new faces and first time guests on campus today as well as many folks returning from Christmas break and travel.
All in all, it was a great day. If you missed our gathering today...be sure to jump back in next week as we kick off a new series called "Killer Apps". Have a great week and I will see you all soon!
Grace and Peace...
Chris
