Sunday Splash!

*This past weekends Sunday Splash is being written on Monday as I spent the entire afternoon and evening pampering my great wife and mother of our three son's!
*Yesterday's Mother's Day celebration was fantastic! There were chocolate strawberries (special thanks to Neyda Teijeiro for making 100's of these on Saturday!) and free portraits (a big shout out to Pastor Adam Weatherly for taking care of this!!) for every special mom who was present with us!
*I am extremely proud of my wife as she opened her heart and shared her personal journey as a mother. I overheard lots of giggles and laughter mixed in with quiet moments of reflection and tears as she shared about the challenges our family faced as we struggled through the highs and lows of going through a tragic car accident and nineteen years of caring for our youngest son, Carrick, who was severely injured at 4 months of age.
*It was great to see several new faces with us this past weekend too! We look forward to a future opportunity to connect with all our recent guests here at Sunset Chapel!
*I am really looking forward to getting back into the saddle and preaching next weekend! We will resume our current series "Messages to Pentecostals".
*I was able to hear from several of our Miami area pastor's this past week who attended the Pen. Florida District Council meetings held in Orlando. They were all excited about what the Spirit was doing in their services as they prepare to join together on May 23 for our 6 pm Pentecost Rally to be hosted at Central Bible A/G. I am looking forward to a great night of the Spirit's outpouring!!
*By the way, if you would like to be a apart of the combined mass choir that will be singing at the rally. please contact douglas Flores to get sheet music and cd sound tracks. Join other singers from churches all across the city of Miami and worship the Lord in song!!
*Here's a heads up this Friday we kick off our 10 day season of fasting and prayer as we pursue God's Spirit in our lives and church! I will write more about this in the coming days!!
*Also, don't forget to make plans to be with us for our second annual "Prayer Walk" to be held at Tropical Park this Saturday at 9 am!!!! We will gather together at shelter #10 prior to the start of our prayer walk!! I will be blogging more info this week about this event and posting updates by email, facebook and twitter!! This will be a great opportunity for the whole family to participate in!
