WEEKEND UPDATE (020710)

Fantastic day at Crossroads today!  Here's just a few of the things I noticed:
  • GREAT crowd today!  Tons of first-time attenders!  Many people rededicated their lives to Christ this morning!
  • The band ROCKED this morning!  Loved opening with a Journey tune.  Thanks to Nic & the band for letting me play. (I AM the 80's)  Woot!  Great to play with two of my sons!  GREAT to have Janna back on the platform!
  • So much fun to start a new series about L-O-V-E.  Eros, Phileo, Storge, Thelo were cool to TALK about, but AGAPE is what it's ALL about! 
  • It was fun remembering and sharing about meeting Leslie in High School.  It's seems like a really long time ago ('cause it is), but I'll never forget wanting her to BE MINE!
  • Tech team and Auditorium set-up team did a great job this morning, as did everyone who brings their energy and enthusiasm to setting up Crossroads each Sunday morning: Lobby team, Hwy 68, Filling Station, and the Children's Annex!  Great job by all!
  • Many more signed up for Small Groups today.  Can't wait to start!
  • A privilege to pray for the Ordway's as they step out into a whole new area of ministry!
  • There was an energy and excitement at Crossroads today that adds to the building momentum we are experiencing.  Can't WAIT to see what God does next!
It is such an honor to serve as your pastor.  As we head into a new season of growth at Crossroads, I am reminded of the awesome sacrifices made not only by Crossroads founders, but by the dozens who have come alongside over the past 18 months to serve and to grow the Kingdom of God in Enterprise. Thank you for your faithfulness.  Look forward to GREAT things in the weeks and months to come!  Have a stellar week.  I'll be continuing some posts this week about What To Pray for Crossroads so check back often! 


On a personal note: Join Leslie and me and our whole family as we continue to pray for our oldest son Max, and the small group he is with, while they are in Haiti. Pray that they have favor with local officials.  Pray that they are able to effectively deliver needed supplies to the orphanage they are there to serve.  Pray that Max is able to photograph and video this important story that needs to be told for the benefit of 134 orphans left homeless by the earthquake. Pray for their safety, and their safe return.  Thanks.  Peace.
