This is Us

We are the church, whether we are gathered or scattered--each one of us, a part of the body of Christ, wherever we go, whatever we do.

So, where can you find us, and what are we doing?

This year at VBS we had over 100 volunteers! Every single person played an important role and had an impact on the children that attended. It was wonderful to see the excitement and passion for Jesus that every person had who volunteered. We’re so glad that we were able to have another meaningful year of VBS. 

5 Truths for Leading Well through a Storm

Normally I sleep through storms. The flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder are like white noise for me.

But when this particular storm raged, I woke up and rather than going back to sleep, I ended up wading in waist deep water at about three in the morning. 

No, it wasn’t flooding. I was standing in a lake!

I’ll tell you the story this weekend.

We’re talking about leading though storms this weekend.

The storms you’ll be called to lead through come in all shapes and sizes.

If someone in your family is facing a crisis, you are being called to lead in a storm.

If you’re a leader, manager, or supervisor, you’ll face storms where you’ll be called on to navigate a group of people through that storm. 

Even if you’re not a designated leader, God will call on you from time to time to take the lead in a storm. 

That’s exactly what we see when the apostle Paul, a prisoner at the time, assumes a leadership role in a literal storm at sea. It’s an amazing story that comes toward the end of the book of Acts and toward the end of the apostle Paul’s ministry. 

We’ll learn a lot about leading in a storm. Hope to see you there.
