Just to recap: ended the I Saw the Lord campaign with 5 baptisms today, bringing our total for the ministry year to 8, 5 more than all of last year! Awesome! Four people (besides me) got to do the baptizing, each one for the first time. Our intrepid Youth Intern, Chris Boblit, got to do his first, and made a 'splash' of it! I love the enthusiasm of a guy serving Jesus with all his heart, way to go Chris.
I'm on a break from teaching our CLASS 101, the membership class, and I have nine students, all asking good questions, all paying attention (at least I hope so!). God is doing something great in our church, and I can't help but get fired up!
Strategic, focused, full of faith and willing to make a mess if necessary. Roof Crashers are people like the four guys in the 2nd chapter of Mark who bring their friend to Jesus through the roof of a house.
