Excited

As I begin to look to fall I am feeling excitement about all the things that are going to be going on. Transit will launch back up on September 20th, that's something that I am crazy excited about. Even though it's another thing that I have to prepare for each week, it's totally fun because we get to talk about the bible, worship and build community. Also I am starting to plan for elevate 07, which was a highlight for the past year. This year I hope that it's even better, and that we really have a great retreat. We are also going to begin planning for a membership class thing, that I haven't thought of a name for yet, but I'm working on it. Instead of a one time meeting and peacing out, we are going to spend some time talking about our core values, our churches statement of faith, our six purposes (the wheel), the mission of the church, membership duties, and all that. I'm really excited. I think a program like this will really help get our church people on the same page, and welcome in the people who are on the fringe of our community. This is going to be a great way to get them connected with other people, and get them plugged into the life of the church. Summer is fun, but fall is a great time for new life, and growth, and excitement and I can't wait to see all that God has in store for us. This is a great season to be a part of Creekside Church. It's gonna be quite a ride!
