WOW!!!

Wow! What a last few weeks it has been! I think we might have a small opportunity to breath now! Easter Sunday was awesome! We had 3 services Sunday morning and had 614 people at Journey! That is an all time record high attendance! More importantly we had many salvations with people giving their life to Christ for the 1st time ever!!! We had 2 huge dramas that were great! It wasn't your traditional Easter service and it was great! Pastor Jeff is such a good communicator and pastor leading this growing church!!!

The City Wide Easter Egg hunt was off the hook! We had somewhere between 1,500 - 2,000 people there! We had 10,000 eggs for the kids to race and get to! The whole football field was FULL of eggs every square inch! We were able to meet and reach out to soooo many people in our community! There were great prizes to give away and eggs with money & gift cards! Our church did such a wonderful job leading this event and Pastor Tony & Mrs. Erin are AMAZING Children's Pastors!!!

Easter night we had a cookout at our house for the high school students. We had almost 40 teenagers hanging out at the house with our adult leaders. We were cooking out hamburgers, brats, & hot dogs! We had a great time just relaxing, laughing and just having a good ole' fashion cookout! Our house felt like a mini doll house with 50+ people in it!

This week we are getting ready for some cool things coming up and our services that are going great and a church that is making a HUGE impact in our community! That's what it is all about reaching people as we are called to go and advance the Kingdom on this earth!!!
