Can I just say, New Community Church rocks! It was an awesome day on campus. I am always amazed when God's people show up to worship and learn together.
Here are the highlights from today.
1. Part three of God's Idea: We answered the question, why the Church. We studied Ephesians 2:1-10 and learned that God gave us life in Christ so that the World will know the truth about God. You can listen to the message here. Here is the kicker...not only has he chosen the Church to show the world God's Love...he has prepared us to do it.
2. We had to set up extra chairs...that is always cool.
3. The Worship Choir was in the house...this always adds an extra layer of intensity to our worship gatherings. Thanks to each of you who showed early for rehearsal and for leading us this morning.
4. Personal Highlight: We launched a new starter group this afternoon at 5 PM. 10 couples...it was awesome. It will not take long for our big group to become two smaller groups poised for growth and for impact.
5. We have more community groups functioning than ever before. If you are looking for a place to connect at NC, groups are the place to do that.
6. We are selling NC Tee's every week for the next month or so. The proceeds that are generated from the sales of these shirts will be used to provide food cards for families that need help and offsett utility bills for families that are struggling. So, buy a shirt...do some Good.
7. Over 40 volunteers today leveraged their gifts and talents to serve our local church today. Teamwork makes the dream work. If you want to find a role to fill, email patti@newcommunityonline.com to get connected to a ministry team.
8. Next week, part 4 of our Ephesians Series: God's Idea. Invite a friend or neighbor and let's keep on rolling on.
Have a great week and remember to be the Church this week.
Grace and Peace...
