Better Late Than Never!
My goodness I feel like i have gotten completely out of my blogging rhythm… the problem is there is so much that is happening every week it is hard to keep up. Part of my motivation to blog is to keep a journal of the journey so this blog has been that for me but I have nit been as dedicated to the process as I have been… so I need to step it up a little… not that anybody else cares 
Let me rewind back a week…
We finished talking about the family tree that Matthew described in the first chapter of his story of Jesus Christ by talking about a woman with a label… Rahab the Harlot and how we could all relate because we all admitted that we have our own labels that have been hung by our name.
I loved the conversations that we had as we looked at the family that Jesus came from… we discovered that Jesus didn’t just come for sinners but from sinners!
Then this past Sunday we took a different turn and looked at the grandeur and splendor of the canvas that God has been painting on and how great our God truly is. The message that we watched was called How Great Is Our God… you can go online and purchase a copy of it for your own. I know it was an incredible morning… many of us were overwhelmed by what we heard… we had several folks give their life to Jesus Christ!
Last week was full of activity… the Christmas program was outstanding! Loved seeing both the basement and the auditorium full of people from our community. The students did a great job in the drama and the 60 voice student “mass” choir!
We got a ton done this past Saturday in the basement… we had 7 men from CP and the Pottershand Ministry come down to join a few of our guys to help us take another step in completing the project! A BIG thanks to all of those guys for their hard and cheerful work!
We got to serve some 100 families this past Saturday through the Boxes of Love Initiative… we had a great crew of people that made the experience a wonderful one!
Fast forwarding to tonight… had a great time rehearsing with some of our students as we get ready for Jingle Jam. I was blown away watching these students singing and dancing… doing drama… what a year it has been. THis time last year we didn’t have but a handful of students now we have 20-25 students involved in serving in Renovation Station and you will get to see them in action Thursday night at Jingle Jam so don’t miss it… 6.30-7.30!
That’s it for now!
