May 24 Recap

  • Overall, it was a good day. We had more people than I was expecting for a Memorial Day Weekend.
  • As always, our volunteers did a wonderful job with set up and tear down.
  • Our giving has been down for the last several weeks. I think the downturn in the economy is finally catching up with us.
  • Next Sunday the message will be on love. It’s the greatest virtue that anyone can have.

May 17 Recap

  • We had a good day. Several of our regulars were out. They are incredible volunteers and we missed them. However, others stepped up and did a great job.
  • We started to record our sevices on HD. We have a few kinks to work out but I am confident that no camcorder is too much for Phillip to handle.
  • The message was on the subject of faith. It meant a lot to me. I needed it.
  • We continue to look for a permanent location.
  • I am excited about the future of Summit.

May 10 Recap

  • We had a solid day. We had several first time visitors and some were back for a second visit.
  • I thought the band sounded great.
  • I was a little nervous about the message. Any time I speak about the differences between men and women  I try extra hard to be careful with my words. Overall, I thought the message was well received.
  • Last Wednesday night we had the most youth ever for our Bible study. I think there were around 35. Shelley and Phillip continue to do an awesome job with the students.
  • We are still open to finding a permanent location. However, nothing has come available at this time but we keep looking.

  • I missed blogging last week.
  • Great day today. Attendance was around 150
  • The band sounded amazing as always. We had a new drummer, Ryan, who did great.
  • The message today was for dads.  It was a challenge preparing it. As much as I love my 4 kids, I know I could do a better job.
  • We had a baptismal service and cook out at Hunter Park after the worship service. Public baptism is awesome! We have baptized in a lake, a swimming pool and a portable baptistry. I love it!
  • I think our small group last Wednesday night was the best one yet. I look forward to meeting with my small group every Wednesday night. It ’s a great mid week pick-me-up.
  • Our Wednesday night Youth Bible Study had about 30 students at it this past week. Shelley and Phillip are doing a wonderful job.
