- The band was incredible today. I love to hear them do Crowder stuff.
- Today we launched Revolutionary Love, our annual Christmas series where we give towards those with needs bigger than ours.
- By the way, here’s the link to the slideshow of the well we drilled in Zambia. We raised the money last Christmas, and Seeds of Hope drilled it a few days ago.
- We also made a huge announcement today (in fact, I’ve waited 7 years to make it).
- On Easter Sunday 2010 (April 4th) RPC will begin meeting at the Fine Arts Auditorium at Auburndale High School.
- We’ve been partnering with AHS for 2 years, and this is a natural outgrowth of that.
- In order to do church in a portable setting, we’re going to need about $100K worth of audio, video, lighting, & children’s equipment.
- Yeah, you read that right
- This is a big deal, but it’s more doable than you may think. That’s 100 families each giving $1000, or each of us giving $50 extra per week for the next 8 weeks.
- We’re partnering with Portable Church Industries, and I spent the afternoon with their consultant.
- By the way, he was VERY complimentary of our volunteers. From the band to the children’s workers, he said the talent and dedication level of our volunteers is much higher than what he normally sees at churches our size. It made me proud.
- As a reminder, I’ll say it again: this is not about money or speakers or projectors or anything else – it’s about changed lives. We must be willing to do whatever it takes to reach people who are far from God.
- Remember – circle the date on your calendar – April 4th, we’re leaving our building and moving forward into the future that God has for us.
- Part 2 of Revolutionary Love is next week, and we’re still going to help those in need overseas. Next week we’ll talk about how we’re going to build houses for the homeless in Honduras. Don’t miss it!
- From digging wells in Zambia to building homes in Honduras to feeding the hungry right here in Polk County, I’m so proud of the way RPC continually reaches out to serve others.
- This has been an incredibly intense day; I’m about to unplug and watch football until I pass out (which won’t take long).
- Hope you have a great week!!
