Grace and peace to you from our Lord and Saviour, Jesus the Christ. We as the leadership have started off the year in a great way. We see that the only way to go forth in mission is to start with dwelling in the Word of God and praying. We are going to be asking God what is it that God is calling us to do and asking Him to bless that, rather than telling God what we want.
We as a congregation are going to be focusing on praying for everything and trusting God to provide the path for us. We started off the 07’ school year by having our members praying for school kids. I am proud that I have heard such good feed back from some of the kids and the adults.
We will also be becoming more relational as a congregation. The best way to reach people new and old is to be truly interested in them as a person. We have talked about this as well as a council. We want to be working and developing a discipleship program in our congregation to help people ponder how they see God in their lives.
We have plans to really move in some terrific new directions this year. This is an exciting year for us. I really see that we as a council are really interested in what we can do to improve on an already great moving congregation. If you have suggestions for any of the boards or for me as your pastor on how we can move forward and be more relational, prayerful or dwelling in the Word please let us know. We want to hear your suggestions
We are putting God’s mission first and I cant wait to see what God is going to do with His Church this year.
Blessings,
Pastor Shannon
