i think we had a great sunday, yesterday! lots of momemts…
i think there were two new episodes that moved into my all-time top ten north point moments. two on one sunday. pure greatness!
the first was buzzy pulling off the orangefield rendition of “give me oil in my lamp”. you should have been there to see his semi-reluctance turn to full-blown glee as he processed my request! it’s scary to realize how effortlessly he pulled it off
for those of you who walked away with concern over my spiritual depth (or simply my taste in worship music), can you say “tongue-in-cheek”??
the second moment not only moved into the top ten, but it unquestionably took over the #2 spot on the list. when i got up to give the welcome at the beginning of the second service and looked over saw ralph in his tuxedo, i about lost it! few, if any of you, got to see the look on his face when he caught eyes with me. he got this huuuuuge smile on his face, puffed out his chest, and waved at me! couldn’t believe he walked right up to the front row…
i’ve got a feeling this won’t be the last ralph moment you read about.
was the new version of “joy to the world” awesome, or what? can’t wait until our christmas eve services to sing it again…twice!
i’m not a real christmas carol kind of guy, but i love it that we get to sing o holy night as part of our worship during this season every year.
it was great to see some old faces yesterday…people who used to be part of our family, but moved away. it was like they had never left. there’s something really really good about church family.
it’s awesome seeing new people come each week. especially ones we met at holiday at the hall!
it’s really cool how many people are connecting with us through our website. logan did an amazing job…and it keeps improving. you ought to check it out, if you haven’t lately.
better yet, make sure you are pointing new people to the website.
we have an unbelievably committed group of people that make our sundays rock every week. people who faithfully and lovingly serve in a variety of ways. some who are seen. many who are unseen. they make a huge difference.
our offering was solid, again. our people are amazing. can’t wait to approve the 2009 budget next and then see us blow it away next year! i think we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what god is doing in our church family…
SO WHO ARE YOU PRAYING FOR? WHO ARE YOU GOING TO INVITE TO ONE OF OUR CHRISTMAS EVE SERVICES? it could be the one invitation that changes their life…forever.
