Last night at prayer Chris Ruzicka made a comment regarding the radical changes that were made starting last Sunday. (Just as a reminder, Chris is the assistant building manager at the church, not to mention our new Jr. High Pastor, and so he is among the first to have to deal with complaints.) He said that there was not even one negative comment from Sunday’s services. This was a “Wow, God did that!” type of a comment. When you consider the time changes, the changes in our music, the fellowship venues that have changed, etc., it is a testimony of how when God is in something, He takes care of all of the details.
Speaking of changes, not only has our college ministry, now called FOCUS, changed from strictly a college class to a college and young singles emphasis, the place and time has also changed. We now meet in the Fellowship Hall at 9:45. In addition, we now pray at the Point at 8:30 am on Sunday mornings, not 8:00 am. And, by the way, what a blessing prayer was last Sunday morning. We had the upper room nearly full.
I hope you are feeling encouraged with all that the Lord is doing in our midst. Let’s continue to make the choice to believe His promises toward us and press forward in confident faith. He has an agenda that He will fulfill. It’s not our job to do the work but rather to trust in His work. It’s not us working FOR Him but rather us working FROM Him. That makes our job quite simple. Just believe and obey!
Single, college-minded individuals, ages 18 -23 learn what it means to give up their self-centered lives and surrender their passion. This passion is manifested upwardly (our ministry to the Lord), inwardly (our role in the body of Christ) and outwardly (to the lost). Once an individual understands what it means to surrender their passion, he/she can be used mightily for His kingdom. Young adults also experience dynamic praise and heart-centered preaching in a supportive and loving community. We worship in a relaxed environment so come as you are.
