Hello, My heart is still full of excitement for what we experienced at The Gathering yesterday. It is so good to see new faces and some known faces come back to Church. Our current series is a challenging one and my prayer is that our faith is not only being strengthened but also stretched. I believe God wants to continue to do great things in us and through us, and for this to happen the faith he gives us must increase. I encourage you to remain consistent in your daily spiritual disciplines. Find a Bible plan, wake up a few minutes earlier to spend time in prayer, worship on the way to work, whatever it takes allow God to be part of your daily routine. Here are some updates for this week 👇 MIDWEEK STUDYJoin us on Wednesdays at 7. We are in a series of studies on the trustworthiness of the Bible. The question we are aiming to answer is if the Bible is really God’s word. And if it is, how do we know it? Our fellowship room is open at 6pm for those of you who would like to grab dinner and come eat at the church before study begins. Every Wednesday we provide childcare. The Youth Gathering meets at the same time. Make plans to join us! COMPASSION FUNDYesterday I shared the sad news about one of our families from our Odessa church family losing their 19yr old daughter in a car accident. As a church family we mourn with those who mourn, and we want to not only pray for them but also come along their side and collect an offering to help them during this difficult time. If you would like to donate, please make sure it is labeled as compassionate giving, you can get the direct link HERE. If you would prefer to donate straight to their GoFund me campaign, you can find it HERE. Please keep them in you prayers. WOMEN’S RETREATDeadline to register is September 14th.
