Tic Toc Tic Toc - Time is Flying By

It has been so long since my last blog, that it feels like I need to reintroduce myself to the world. To say that life has been super busy would be an understatement. It feels like just yesterday we were having our Christmas Service at LP. Now we are just days away from Easter and the Peep Drop!
Last Sunday we celebrated our six month anniversary, and God brought us a great gift of 104 people and two people who gave their life to Christ. Go God!!! If I tell you these last six months have been a honeymoon I would be lying to you. As we have had some great days, we have also had some challenging days. God has pushed us, stretched us, corrected us, re focused us, and dropped us to our knees. And I''ll say this, even though it hasn't been easy I wouldn't want to change it for anything. We are stronger, and more confident (in Him). We have more Faith, compassion, grace, mercy, and sensitivity. And the cool thing is God isn't done molding us into what He wants us to become. He is the Potter and we are the clay!
Sometimes when I take a minute to stop and try and gather my thoughts I just can't believe everything that God has let us do in just these six months.
In six months we have:
October 5th Launched with 120 people in attendance:)
Fed five families for Thanksgiving:)
Gave gifts and fed six families for Christmas:)
Had a baby shower for Womens Resource Center:)
Had a Weight Loss Challenge, the church lost 157lbs:)
We gave $157.00 to Mission Possible:)
We have been a part of a homeless woman's life as she has been transformed by God (Aidey):)
Aidey is now at Teen Challenge ( and I can't wait to she gets home, as I know God is going to use her:)
God has let us minister to many hurting people:)
We were in The Courier talking about the Peep Drop:)
We were in The Courier again (letter to the editor) about the Peep Drop LOL :)
We have seen almost 40 people give their life to Christ:)
We had 104 people on April 5th:)
We have the best volunteers ever:)
We have the best worship band ever:)

Like I said, the first six months have been truly amazing, and I'm looking forward to the next six months to see what God is going to do in our community through LifePoint!
