Those who were being saved...

Less than a week away from the inaugural service! It seems like it has been a long time in coming. I will take my comfort in the fact that it is God's perfect timing.

It has been amazing getting to know the people in our city here. In the past couple of weeks some friendships have bloomed with neighbors, coworkers, and baseball parents. I am excited to see what the Spirit will do with these...

Pray for Corey, Mandy, Miguel, Paul, Jeff, Corene, Sonja, Brien...

And God added to their number daily those who were being saved... (Acts 2:47)

I've been pondering this scripture and imagining each person I meet to be starting the journey to resurrection. I eagerly await getting into the bible with them and seeing their faith grow.

My mother is coming to town this week for a visit. It will be great to see her and share what God is doing here with her. We will be having many family members visiting in the next few months. I hope to balance family with Family. May the Spirit work it all out, Amen.

Matthew 12:46-50
While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.”
He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”

My prayer is that our Church family here truly becomes the reflection of Jesus' family of believers.
