I hope everyone enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday as much as I did! Waking up to several days of much needed rest and food was just what my body and mind needed. My personal schedule in recent weeks had been in overdrive! I am definitely feeling refreshed and better prepared to finish 2011 well!
Typical weekend service following the long Thanksgiving holiday with many of our regular attenders missing in our service. Several others stepped it up today! I am so grateful to pastor a church filled with passionate people for Christ! Every base was covered as people began to drive onto our church campus! We once again had several guest's this week! Enjoyed meeting Lionel, Jose, Maria, Jenny and Jackie! These first time guests made my day! Three of them even made decisions for Christ! That never gets old! There is nothing like watching sincere tears fall from someones eyes who has just experienced a changed life! Also want to welcome back John, JR, Sophia and Kat back to our services! You have all been missed!
The perfect ending for today's worship experience was meeting with two young adults afterwards who wanted to deepen their study of God's Word! I shared with them about a couple of helpful resources they could each obtain and encouraged them to get involved with our Wednesday Bible study!
I shared with our church today some very important developments... This Wednesday we will host a Family Fun Fest! Admission is free for kid's with a $5.00 charge for adults! This event is being sponsored by our own Sunset Christian Academy! Their event was canceled a week ago due to a rainstorm and we rescheduled so that both our SCA and Sunset Chapel families could gather together! All our regular ministries will be canceled for this Wednesday( Nov. 30 ) and we want to invite everyone to this event! SC families should contact Shari DeBord to obtain free wristbands for their children to participate in all the fun activities!!
We also announced our second upcoming "Prayer and Fellowship" gathering at our home on Sunday December 11 at 7 PM. Everyone is invited to come with their prayer requests and a Christmas dessert to share with those in attendance. Speaking of Christmas, it's my favorite time of the year! I pray that every heart becomes a Bethlehem where Christ can be born!! The whole message of Christmas is that HE is with us!! It's also the perfect season to invite your family and friends to join you for a service at Sunset Chapel! I hope to meet them soon!
