How time flies. It's been a year since I walked the aisle during the SBTC annual convention and committed our church to adopting an unreached, unengaged people group. What followed was 12 long months of prayer, focused study, and in-depth conversations, and now we are finally seeing a path forward. Some things are becoming clear to our FOCUS group, and the unity among us has been further confirmation that we are going about this the right way.
Part of this whole process has been identifying the "DNA" of our church. What are our strengths/weaknesses? Where might we best fit in? And though we haven't decided where, exactly, we will serve, we all agree that we will serve, and that God will use us to accomplish His global purposes.
On another note, I've been spending lots of time lately planning the missions camp. I just received my brochures that I had printed up. If you'd like one (or more), let me know and I'll get it out to you post-haste.
As I write this I'm preparing for a little Thanksgiving merriment with my family. I don't get to spend every holiday with them as I once did, so I cherish the times when I can. There are very few things in this life that are more valuable than a supportive family, and I have it. It's true: the best things in life are not things.
