Okay, so SUNDAY SIMPLY ROCKED! WOW! The stage was awesome (take a look at this).
Thanks to Cathy Collett and Rosa Miller and anyone else who had anything to do with it! It is one of the best VBS backdrops I have ever seen!!! We had an awesome attendance for the middle of the summer and people were genuinely excited to be here. Don't be fooled, not everyone was happy. We are a church with real people so... there were folks who just found out they have a cancer battle to fight, folks who just lost a teenage daughter/sister/friend to Leukemia, folks who were waiting results of tests, folks who were struggling financially, folks who were sick and tired, folks who are battling depression, folks who really need a job... BUT, the Spirit and Power of God was really moving and it was evident in the faces of everyone walking through LCC! Thank you Jesus! People were hugging, praying and loving on one another. The message was well received and I have already heard about action as a result of the challenge given. GO GOD! We had another wonderful and faith-filled offering received. Chris and Emily Dorer came forward at the conclusion of 3rd service and joined the family here at LCC! WELCOME GUYS! Our NP-3 children's ministry had 30+ kids in the 11:15 hour alone. We had more new faces including my awesome neighbors Jennifer, Savannah and Cade! Our "Eden Exchange" garden table was full of vegetables from the Dotson garden and so many folks helped themselves (must be like it was in Acts 2). Jennifer and I were blessed to have Chris and Emily join us for lunch. What a great couple. God is going to use them in power here at LCC! I can't wait to see what he has in store for them and for US!
Sunday evening brought the first night of VBS! WOW! It was incredible. We broke first night records with 154 kids and 75 adults! I was soooo impressed by how well it was organized, how easily people pitched in and did whatever was needed and the best part was seeing so many new LCC folks getting involved. Thank you Holly and your entire crew for what promises to be a really BIG VBS! Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
B. OUT!!
