We had our very first service today....on this Resurrection Sunday! I would like to first thank God for His faithfulness and kindness to us. We are definitely not entitled to serve and to have this kind of minitry.
This morning we were able to have a time of scripture reading, install our core group as members of New Life Church, a sermon over 2 Corinthians 4.1-6 (preaching Jesus Christ as Lord over NLC) and worship by observing the Lord's Supper. We had 39 in attendance this morning which was awesome.
God has been guiding our family to be a part of this new plant now for almost 2 years and we have been meeting with our core group for 8 months. We will now meet as a core group of members for 6-8 weeks on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights and then make ourselves known to our community with intentional ways for honoring Christ and reaching out to the people in this area of Eads, Tn.
Please continue to pray for our Pastor's Council and our new church as we smooth out any rough edges that come up over the next couple of months.
Thank you to all of you who have been keeping our family and New Life Church before our Heavenly Father.
Praise God!
Pastor Keith
