Celebrate!
It is amazing to see all the people who volunteer at our church! This past week we saw three ministries “hit the ground running”! People of all ages were using their time and talent to bring glory to our God. This is just not normal, but something to certainly celebrate! Only God can cause this selflessness in people’s hearts!
KidStuf came back strong after a well-deserved summer break. 210 people showed up to break our previous attendance high of 180! Wow! Young and old-alike were engaging children to hold high the value of wisdom. Simply incredible what is done weekly by all the KidStuf volunteers!
Small Groups had a roaring start as 200 adults signed up and met up in homes around the area. There is power in “together” and it will be a joy to watch what God does in all those who serve in and get served by this powerful ministry of followers sharing their lives in community…just like Jesus and the apostles!
The Wednesday Toolbox kicked off as well. Over 90 people came to sing, pray and learn about sharing their faith, prayer and the book of Matthew. It was the first of many great Wednesdays together at the Oak Bridge Center!
None of this would happen without all the volunteers who have faithfully offered their time and talents for God to use. You are an amazing group of people helping to build an amazing church! It is a privilege to serve with all of you!
I can confidently tell people I run into who are down on church “One visit to Oak Bridge and it will change how you think about Church”. And that is a great thing to be able to say!
Celebrating you and our great God!
In His Grace,
Tom
P.S. If you haven’t yet experienced any of these ministries it’s not too late. We still have some Small Groups with room. KidStuf and The Toolbox are always ready for more people. They are all great next-steps!
P.S.S. Invite a friend to Church this week. See what God does with that! You never know.
