It's here.
The week where we truly kick off our School year programming.
Wednesday Night we kick off with a big night of food, fun, and a drama from our students. Lot's of kids are excited. I got a really cool text from one of our guys that has been taking the idea of "Begin with the end in mind" very seriously. He said he was praying specifically that he would see one of his friends become interested in getting involved at the church. Last night, he received a random text from his friend saying he wants to start coming on Wednesday Nights!
Sunday we kick off our Youth Classes. They have classically met from 9:30-10:30 in age/gender appropriate classes. These will continue. 16 of our students are going to be serving as Small Group Leaders in our Sunday Morning Preteen 3D program.
Also, we are adding a 10:45 option, called "Now What?" Our Senior High Intern Alison will be leading this discussion based time where students will build off that morning's worship service during the 9:30 Worship Center or new 9:15 Connection worship times. I'm extremely excited about this new offering and am praying that we will see students significantly invest in this offering.
Sunday Night we have our first gathering for 11th and 12th Grade Small Groups. These groups are all about students taking ownership. After groups are formed, it will be up to students to determine with their Small Group Leader when/where they'll meet.
Then, next Wednesday night, September 10, our 9th and 10th Grade Small Groups kick in. We also start a 5 week series, DTR, where we will take time to "Define The Relationship" that we can find in Jesus Christ. Our student worship band, and new Senior High Worship leader, Jessica Hawke will be out in full force as well.
Oh yeah, then on Septbember 14, I'm in the box for the Sunday Morning Worship Service!

We are on a quest to simplify and unify, as we seek to move students from Religion to Relationship to Spiritually Reproducing.
We're ready for the ride of our lives!
