Weekend Rewind

We finished February strong! We received over $3,000 in every Sunday offering this month. That has been our goal for a while. That is on top of three great missionary offerings and faith promises for mission giving that has risen to $22,000 for 2009. We also had great attendance. So far this year we have surpassed last year's average attendance by a minimum of 11 every Sunday, and a maximum of 27. Last year our average attendance was 121.

We were also blessed to have a good friend in service at 10:15 who rededicated his life to Christ! His mother, his aunt and several friends were with him. It was an amazing picture of God's grace and undying persistence toward our salvation and blessing. It was great to experience the gifts of the Holy Spirit in operation again, and by an individual who had not previously been used in the gifts at our church. That was very encouraging.

The Lord is strengthening our church in so many ways. We are stronger spiritually and that is most important.

Plus the Youth Rally on Saturday went really well. Over 300 Teens there. 3 of ours re-dedicated their lives to God.
