Important things for Sunday, February 15

Message from Maddie Shrodes to Joel Powell: " I love you and I'm praying for you. Please don't stop reading the blog because of me. I'm sorry if I've done anything to offend you. Blessings to you my brother in Christ..."


Okay folks, you'd have to be at rehearsal to understand the above message. If you missed it, well...don't miss again! Wow, what an awesome service this past Sunday! And get ready because a brand new level is in store for this week. I'm serious! And I'm PUMPED! I can't wait.

We're singing about freedom again. Sorry, I can't help it. There's a new thing God is doing and we're finally free of some stuff and moving forward in a way that hasn't been possible previously. God is so good. Get ready, get ready, get ready. And no, these are not just cliches...I am serious as a heart attack. Okay, for the worship songs for this week:

Freedom
We Have Overcome
Freedom Reigns
Awesome in This Place

Choir Song: We Have Come Into This House (from Give Him the Praise)

Colors: Black and white

Prayer requests from this past week's choir rehearsal:

  • Pastor Trinity - healing and grace as he goes through chemo
  • Susan's job - continued favor
  • Hunter - upcoming MRI test. Praise report: he does not need glasses!!!
  • The Shehan's - safe travel; get quickly moved in and settled with us! Yay!!!!!!
  • Fine Arts - anointing, safety, creativity, God's favor for our youth
  • Lois - Alex's sister in law - total healing and also encouragement for her husband, John.
  • Kirstie - hurt hand during rehearsal for fine arts
  • David Torres - boot camp

By the way, the showing of the Fireproof movie will be open to ALL adults on Sunday night at 6 pm, not just married couples. However the evening is for adults and we ask if you do not put your children in the provided childcare (for a donation to our fine arts youth ministry) then please arrange child care for them outside the church. After the movie there will be discussion and prayer for marriages.

It's going to be a great week. Buckle up, we are in for some exciting days. I can't wait to tell you all about it.

YES YES YES! I know I've been saying that a lot lately, but it is exactly where we are at. In a place where we can praise freely, we can lift our hands freely ,we can dance freely before the LORD. FREE OF OUR PAST,FREE OF THE THINGS THAT HAD US BOUND!!!! Free of old mind sets. PD you right, there is a new Christ why not shout it from the mountain tops.Lets be like the lepers and sing about what he has done.....
