My apologies for failing to update this blog more regularly!
The church is doing really well. As of last Sunday, we have 20 regular attenders. Many are new folks who have begun attending within the last 6 months. The people of the church are extremely excited about this new year. Our theme for 2008 is GROW!. We aim to GROW spiritually as individuals which in turn will enable us to GROW as a church both spiritually and numerically.
If you are partnering in prayer with us, please consider these things:
1. That real, tangible spiritual growth will continue to be realized in the lives of those who are attending.
2. That we will find a more permanent location to meet.
3. That we will be able to begin ministering on the Everett Naval Station.
4. That I will be able to quit my secular job soon as the church needs greater attention.
