GET READY!!!

Church!!!!  I’m back on the first Sunday in August!!  I CANNOT WAIT!!  I’ve been spending this time in prayer, Bible study, and with my family, who makes UNBELIEVABLE sacrifices for me to be the lead pastor of commUNITY church… we LOVE YOU!!!

Get ready, church!!!  August kicks off our 5-month busy season!!  

We’re doing the Gaston Fair Community Church night on August 4!!  It’s free admission!!  You WANT to be there, and bring ALL your friends!!  It’s gonna be a BLAST!!

We’re doing a back-to-school movie night on August 15 in Gaston!!!  We want to serve popcorn and bottled water and allow the families to enjoy some time together watching a great movie!!

We’re hosting Another Berry Long Run at the church this year on September 12!!!  AND… we’re kicking it up a few notches!!  Get ready to have a blast in a dance-a-thon, a Pumpkin-Ball contest, Bounce Houses, and treats for everyone as we raise money for a WONDERFUL cause!!

We’re bringing back Trunk or Treat toward the end of October!  It’s one of our biggest events, and we can’t wait to go bigger and better each year with more fun for families in our community!!

We’re serving the YFD again this year by allowing them a time of rest and relaxation on the Sunday before Thanksgiving in November!!  We’ll NEED EVERYONE to help!!!

We’re having Breakfast with Santa again this year in early December!!  It was SO MUCH FUN last year, and we got to meet a LOT of people from the communities in which we live!!

GET READY, CHURCH!!!

Why do we do all of this?  We’re small.  We shouldn’t be doing all of this.

DON’T.  JUST DON’T.  DO NOT believe that lie!!!  

We’re doing it because we LOVE JESUS!!!  AND WE LOVE WHO JESUS LOVES!!!!  AND WE’RE GONNA SERVE WHO JESUS SERVES!!!!!

Our faith isn’t one that we just talk about on Sundays or think about every now and then… our faith is ACTIVE!!

GET READY, CHURCH!!!!!!!!
