I have been a member of this church for the better part of 12-13 years and I can tell you The Holy Spirit is ever present there! God has taken this church from when the original Pastor preached when it was smaller, but he had a vision and that was to take the Gospel to every place they were most needed, making Missions part of his vision.
This church is growing so fast because there is no doubt God has His Holy hands on it! The people are wonderful, we’re human, so don’t come worrying about perfection! We all fall, but we get back up and dust ourselves off! We are sinners, trying our hardest to be more like Jesus…we will spend the rest of our lives doing that if we are planning to do His will and fallow Him.
Our Pastor, Andrew Hébért is amazing! He preaches in a way we can understand and even puts a little bit of Hebrew in there for us to comprehend the true meaning! He preaches 3 sermons each Sunday, so please pray for God to give Him strength (you would think the 3rd one is his 1st) as he is so excited to share the word of God! He gives it his all! I could listen to him preach ALL day!
We have a singles group and many churches in our area don’t. I don’t know why it’s like that because there are soooo many singles needing friends they can relate to. We have a wonderful group and we split into 3 separate groups (age-wise; however, you are welcome in any of them and they are all wonderful!
I’m a part of Larry and Sue East’s class and he does his homework, let me tell you and he shares it before hand so you can prepare. I’m not always the best at this, but I’m going to work on getting better!
My name is Patti Thomas and I will meet you at “The Bridge” and walk with you to church if you don’t want to come alone. We love to welcome new people and we want you to
feel at home. I have had to miss several Sundays and watch on-line, but all you have to do is walk in those doors and someone will greet you and lead you.
I pray everyone gets to know My God Jesus,and live with the Holy Spirit inside to guide them. If you don’t have a Bible to learn about our Lord and Savior. we will be happy to give you one!
Don’t let the large building intimidate you…it’s not that way when you step inside. Honestly! It’s cozy and when you get to know your small group, you will fall in love with everything the Lord has provided to reach people. Babies, littles, youth and up! Young and older…it’s a beautiful sight!
We welcome you with open arms and open bearts. I hope you will come, you’ll be glad you did! There’s so much to do there! We love you from wherever you are!
Sincerely,
Patti from “The Gathering” (that’s what we call ourselves before we break into smaller groups).🙂
