The December Calendar

I can't believe how fast this year has gone by. Russell and I sat down this morning planning for the up-coming month and new year. December will begin with Russell and me finishing up our Y-Series! His message will center around Y-Give, and I will finish the series with Y-Church.

This will take us two weeks into December, leaving us with three more Sundays in 2006 to impact our community of believers.

Looking back on the year, I am amazed at the giant leaps of faith we have taken as a church. Since the beginning of the year, we have called a worship leader (David Story), multiplied our Small Groups (from two to five), began numerous Life Transformation Groups, and have reached our monthly financial goals every month, except for one. Another exciting statistic is that we have averaged in the fifties and sixties since July! This past month, we averaged 61 people for the month, with an all time high (on our own) of 101 people.

We realize that we have a lot of work left to do. There are still plenty of people in Morgantown, and the world who are not yet fully developing followers of Jesus Christ. Russell and I discussed our inadequacies, and our desire to do a better job in 2007. One of the things we are going to do is plan our 2007 Calendar year. We hope to have our Sermon Series for 07' in the bag and ready to go. We want God to use our church in a greater, and more abundant way in the up-coming year.
