Dear Central Family,
I am looking forward to this Sunday and I hope that you will be able to be with us and with take this opportunity to invite your friends to come along with you!
This Sunday we are all going to rejoice in what God did through our Haiti World Impact team this past Christmas. The Haiti team will be presenting a report of what God did in and through them through testimonies, slides, and special messages given by Pastor Gilmer in the contemporary services and Bryan Bunagan in our classic service. Both Pastor Gilmer and Bryan participated in this trip so they have much to share.!
We will also be rejoicing in the celebration of Believer's Baptism at both the 9:30 and 11:00 contemporary services. If you have not stepped out and shown your faith through baptism, this is your chance to make it known. Just bring a pair of shorts and t-shirt, and plan to be blessed as you step out in obedience!
I am thankful for what God did in our last sermon series, The Me I want to Be. Next Sunday, February 19, we will be starting a new series that I am really looking forward to, We have called it THE RESISTANCE and we will spend the next four weeks focusing on the Old Testament character of Joseph and how his life is filled with lessons that speak to our lives in the 21st Century. As I am studying, I am seeing so many practical truths that will impact our lives.
Finally, I want you to know that we are really looking forward to a special Leaders Summit that we will be holding on Sunday, March 4 at 6 pm. The Overseeing Elders are calling for everyone who serves in any way in our church to come together for a special night of worship, prayer, and casting of vision as they lay out the priorities that God has placed before us for the next three years. The elders have been prayerfully working on putting together a clear compelling vision that will be our track for the next three years and we want to share this with our entire body. You may wonder, “Should I come?” If you are serving in any way at Central, whether you are a member or not, we want to encourage you to come and hear what God has put on our hearts. So please plan to come. Child care will be provided.
I thank God for what He is doing at Central! Just today I was out in the community and someone came up to me, and said, "Pastor Gay! I will be there on Sunday! I started back this past Sunday and was so blessed, can’t wait to come back this Sunday!" I can’t tell you how this encouraged me to hear this. So I hope you will be there this Sunday to bless others like her!
In His Grace,
Pastor Gay
