Thoughts on the Weekend
I was truly blown away and blessed by this past weekend. I can’t remember the last time that we had a weekend that was that busy.
Friday was a prep day for the Garage Sale for our team headed to Peru. We were overwhelmed with “stuff” for the sale by your generosity. Thank you for contributing!
Saturday started early with the Men’s Pancake Breakfast. It was great having a venue for guys to gather and get to know each other a bit better than what a typical weekend allows. We hope to look for many different types of opportunities to do this again! Don’t miss it.
The rest of Saturday was spent working the Garage Sale. Almost $1500 was raised for the Peru team. Sweetness!
Sunday was Pathways at the Park, and even psychotic weather could not spoil our day. It started cold, the service was hot and then the rains came, but you were not deterred. Honestly, I think the rains may have been one of the great things about the weekend. Instead of having people spread all over the park to eat, we all huddled under different canopies and roofs to eat and talk and get to know one another better. The kids? They were wet anyway and a little rain was not going to stop them from getting more wet (is that possible?).
The church is the people. You / We are the church. Not a building. Not a place. This weekend, I saw the church connecting and growing and laughing and playing. It was awesome.
