Sit back and relax. I love writing the New Life ramblings. These are just random thoughts on life, church, my family, God and faith.
- We are doing a blood drive at the church today. Stop by and give blood.
- Alan Johnson speaks on Sunday. I love his passion for people groups who have never heard the name of Jesus.
- Pray for my niece Kara. Her blood counts are very low. She needs a miracle.
- We had 470 ladies at our UNITE gathering last week.
- We are partnering with Maple Valley Food bank to provide 500 dinners to people…pick up a bag on Sunday and fill it up.
- Dolphins sleep with one eye open.
- Our Big Give offering continues to grow. Last Sunday we had a couple of people make $20,000 gifts. This last week someone gave a $100,000 gift.
- Amp’d is in one week—attention all Junior High and Senior High—-this will be an amazing night for you.
- On Sunday we are trying something for the first time…we will Skype in a missionary and talk to them in our services.
- God-break our hearts for the marginalized, the poor and the broken of this world.
- Relentless Compassion: Demonstrating Christ’s redemptive love to the helpless and hurting in our community and broken world.
- We are baptizing people this Sunday. If you want to get baptized at New Life click here.
- It is hard to believe that Thanksgiving is a few weeks away.
- I am still in awe at our Big Give Offering.
- Click here to see the Tribute to Pastor Tappero, Confessions of a Pastor and Cardboard Testimony videos.
- Click here to communicate your Big Give commitment between now and December 31.
- My prayer- God break my heart for what breaks yours. Give us a large scale unpredictable spiritual awakening in this community and broken world.
- In a couple of weeks we begin a series over the Lord’s Prayer called “Our Father”. We are going to challenge everyone to pray the Lord ’s Prayer everyday for five weeks. Life changing. Lord, teach us to pray!
- This Sunday, November 15th, Missionary Alan Johnson is speaking in the morning. Then he will be available at 5:00 PM for a question and answer time with a missionary.
- The Big Give offering was over 10 times larger than any previous building offering ever received on a given Sunday.
