Wow! Trying to catch my breath today from an AMAZING weekend. Here are some highlights:
- Had a blast on Good Friday with some of our leaders by attending the U2Charist at Real Church. I'm really proud of my friend Chilly and his team. Real Church has grown by almost 50% just this year!
- Four was a great number for us yesterday. We had four people baptized and another four people make commitments to Christ! New life on Resurrection Sunday!
- Yesterday we had the largest children's attendance on a Sunday in the history of our church. 47 kids packed into the kid's services as JT and her team introduced Epic and the time machine.
- Tal, Glenn and the guys worked around the clock to prepare Guest Central for the launch of our new guest reception. We knocked out a wall and some office space to open up a new area just off the lobby. I loved having a dedicated area for Leah and I to connect with so many guests after the services.
- I was really proud of all our ministry teams who put in so much extra in order to pull together the two services. We needed both of them and our leaders made it happen!
- We kicked off the Epic series. Can't wait to see what God does this Spring!
- Enjoyed sharing my first Easter with my bride as a married man! She was all over the place yesterday, launching the guest reception, helping me open both services, and even working in the nursery during the first service. What did I ever do without this girl?
- I'm gearing up for a great week, including a visit from this guy and this guy on Thursday.
Happy week after Easter! Let's make it a memorable one:)
47 kiddos...that is awesome! Glad you guys had a good weekend.
