NEW YEAR, NEW ROOM, NEW THINGS

jbryant — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 23:20:58 +0000

This week is the first week of our semester together. With that comes some changes! We’ve got a new lead student pastor in Andy Neely. We’ve got a new room in room 401 (inside the student warehouse). We’ve got new LifeStores offerings (a Bible study in room 650 with James Tew and the Gathering with Mark Bedwell and Bill Horn in Theatre 1). So, we’ve got a lot going on!

This Sunday will be our first Sunday in our new room, and LifeStores begins next week, so look for the signs to get to the right place.

Email Bill if you have any questions.

Lighthouse Ministry Event

We had a great time ministering with the Lighthouse Ministries Thrift Store in Brandon this past Saturday. It seemed like they had a great day of business, we handed out a ton of bibles, handed out lots of free hot dogs and kettle corn, and people were worshiping God in the parking lot! I think God was glorified by all that went on there. Our ministry coordinator, Cheri Tew, did an awesome job putting everything together, and the team of students that went were also awesome. Awesomeness all around. Kristin Daniels also became a balloon artist in a few minutes!

I hope you’ll join us on our next outing for ministry.

Also, be on the lookout for a new evangelistic drama – Thanatos, which our church staff has created from scratch. It’s going to be awesome as well. The dates are September 15, 17-19 in the NOW Center (the old Montgomery Wards building). Casting is this Sunday, August 1st after church lets out.

Contact me if you have any questions.

Exam Packs

We had an awesome time handing out exam packs to students who are in the midst of their finals on three of our local campuses over the past two weeks. Please pray for the recipients, that they would be able to study well and succeed on their last tests for the semester!

If you are a college student who has not received an exam pack, please let us know, because we have some left that we want to hand out.

peace,
Bill

Quick note

We have switched rooms for our Sunday AM Connect Group. We are now meeting in Theatre 2, which is on the left when you enter the theatre lobby. The theatre is by the lakeside glass double doors, and there is a huge Converge logo over the indoor entrance. We still worship together at 9:30 AM, we still meet at 11 AM for our Connect group, we still have coffee, and we still have a great time discussing God’s amazing Word!

See you there!

The Converge movie night was a great bundle of fun! We ate popcorn and enjoyed Night at the Museum 2.

We’re rolling right into the Spring semester! It’s been a busy few weeks for all of us with getting classes in order, fixing financial aid and everything else that comes along with being a college student! It can be a very hectic process, but remember to keep Christ at the center of it all! He’s what holds everything together even when it feels like it’s about to fall apart.

Read Psalm 136 for some encouragement.
