God Continues To Amaze

We celebrated our tenth year anniversary last weekend with nearly 4,800 people attending 9 services in four locations, 369 Baptisms, and even more salvation decisions. Left at 4am Monday morning for a the Drive Conference in Atlanta Georgia, got back in time to go straight to the Pastor's Appreciation Dinner, then six services with H.B. London from Focus on the family....

I was just looking at the stats and we are averaging nearly 600 people per week more than we did in October...

God is moving, and we need to keep figuring out ways to accomodate all the people that God is allowing us an opportunity to minister too!

So here we go again, we are ready to begin to "Live Feed" the Orchard's Campus and launch new/overflow services. Beginning next week November 18-19th we will move to two services at 9:30 and 11:30am. John is even talking about quickly moving to a 7pm Saturday Evening service...

We had several people sign up this week to come down and assist us beginning next week, plan on inviting your friends and hang on for the ride....

Please be praying for Sherry Curtiss who is in having surgery tomorrow Monday Nov. 13th.

Thanks for all you do in serving our Lord, you are each a great blessing and God has wonderful plans for each of our lives. It is a very busy time, but it is the best tired you will ever experience!! ONLY GOD!!!

God Bless,

Duane
