weekend report

It was an amazing ending to our Nehemiah series at Crossroads this weekend as Pastor Dave taught Reform to Relapse.

We were lead in worship by our Young adult band as we lifted our voices together in worship!

As I stood and looked around me at the full auditorium I was filled with thankfulness and am so excited to see what God plans to do among our congregation as Pastor Dave challenged us to affect our community with the gospel of Jesus Christ!

A few glimpses of our weekend!

weekend report

This week was one for the books!  People often ask me how our process works as we prepare the weekend services.
It begins with God laying on Pastor Dave's heart what our congregation needs to hear, and then the staff begins to work.  Songs are chosen thematically to support the teachings, creative elements are dreamed up, missional work happens, caring for the sick takes place, preparing the teachings for the children and students happens, and the endless cleaning and maintenance of Crossroads is completed  and when it all comes together it's a perfect representation of all the different gifts and talents God gives to His children used to tell His story!
Just as the weekend was ready to being we had a staff member involved in an accident, a key volunteer too ill to serve and last minute volunteers that came to the rescue because they understand that God planned for us all to work together unselfishly giving of our time and talents!
This week's beautiful worship preparation took place, hours of video work happened as our dreams and ideas became reality - and our congregation responded by giving as they figuratively 'picked up their brick'!
Here is a peek behind the scenes!

weekend report

I don't remember a time recently when I've been busier and more excited about ministry then I am right now!  Our new series, Nehemiah launched this past weekend with a very unusual moving of the Spirit of God.  People spontaneously responded to Him, as personal testimonies were shared, technical difficulties we seldom experience occurred all weekend long, and we ran completely out of the devotionals that we created as a support of this series.  I felt as if a Spiritual battle raged all weekend, and that's not being dramatic at all.

I had to lay it at His feet, I don't like it when things don't go as planned.  We had all done the very best we could to prepare well and had to realize that beyond preparing well,  it was completely His to do with our work as He pleased...and He did.   I can hardly wait to see what happens next!  He is good!

Our devotionals went like hot-cakes - we ran out!
