Wow—what an exciting month we’ve been able to celebrate together! God is clearly at work in our church, and it has been a joy to witness.
Two weeks ago, we saw three individuals make meaningful decisions during our service. Bella Saul came forward for baptism, and Kevin Brooks and Matt Grana each placed their trust in Christ as Lord and Savior. These public decisions, along with other ongoing conversations, are already leading to more commitments that we look forward to celebrating soon. What a blessing!
Last weekend, several members of our church family gathered for a workday, and so much was accomplished. I am truly grateful for everyone who came out to serve. It was especially encouraging to see even our younger members pitching in—one of our children was out in the parking lot helping clean and improve safety. Well done to all who participated!
Thank you as well to everyone who brought food to share this past Sunday. It was a wonderful time of fellowship as we gathered to eat and connect with one another. Some of the most meaningful moments in Jesus’ ministry happened around the table—shoulder to shoulder, sharing life together—and we experienced a glimpse of that this weekend.
Finally, I want to personally invite everyone to a special gathering this coming Wednesday. The East Lake Volunteer Fire Department will be donating an AED machine in honor of James Tilley. We will mark this occasion with a potluck dinner and a brief presentation. The meal will begin at 6:00 PM. As always, if you’re able, please bring a dish to share—but if not, simply come and enjoy the fellowship. Your presence is what matters most.
I am so grateful for each of you and encouraged by how the Lord is moving among us. God is so good!
