So Much . . .

We moved into a new place last week!  Since I haven't blogged for a while, I should bring you up to speed.  This is our second new place in 4 weeks.  We spent three weeks at a charter school here in Meridian.  While the location was great and the people incredibly friendly, it didn't have the room we needed for our kids ministries.  Now, we're meeting at a church on Cherry Lane called, "Church of the Holy Nativity."  They are letting us use their sound system, they have a fully furnished ready to go nursery, and a really sweet old gym that we all hang out in after service.  Last week our people hung around for about an hour and a half after service eating cookies, drinking coffee and sharing about life.  It's so great to have a place to fellowship!

This week I've encouraged our people to invite their friends and neighbors.  I'm hoping to see a major turnout.  This will be our first real preview service.  Our band is ready to go, we made a video called, "In the Wild," and we have a drama scheduled too.  Our theme is justice vs. mercy.  I'm convinced it will be a great win!

One other quick note, we've started our Connection Groups.  Jeremy, one of our transplants from Sacramento, is leading a group in Thursday nights.  It is such a privilege to be surrounded by great ministry partners!  Tam and I will be starting our group very soon, right now we're in a holding pattern waiting for kid number three to show up.  He's due pretty much any time now.

I'll get back into the swing of blogging more often.  Thanks for keeping tabs on us and please pray that God draws more meridians towards him!
