Dear Friends,

With baby #4 soon to arrive, my wife and I keep finding more and more things to do “to get ready.” We laugh at ourselves knowing full well that you are never “ready” for another child to enter your home.

Well, as I reflect on the journey of our church, I realize we will never “be ready” to birth a new church. You aren’t ready to church plant when you have 200 members or when you have 2000 members. But that doesn’t mean you don’t prepare. So, I’m going to ask you to pray very intentionally for the next 40 days. In 40 days, the elders of this church will take their annual retreat. We will be seeking God’s direction for the future of our church, and church planting is on our hearts and minds.

So, let’s do everything we can (like praying) to “get ready” to birth a new church. Please join us in prayer. Our elder retreat is June 17-18.

No May 13 Ministry Community Meeting.

Turning the Corner in Acts: This Sunday we start a new mini-series in the book of Acts called “Hitting the Church Jackpot.” We will dive headfirst into Acts 2:42-47 in order to decipher what a truly “successful” church looks like.

Enjoy spring!
