Free Buzz

We are a few weeks past our launch and things have been going well. each week we have had new people and I am loving hearing their stories. Last week I received a phone call from Candice Hannigan. She writes for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. She had seen our signs and decided to follow up with us. I had a great conversation with Candice, whom you can tell is passionate about what she does, and now today our church has a write up about it in the AJC Cherokee County section.

I feel the best form of getting "the word out" is through the personal stories of people as God begins to be real in their lives. As you begin a new church obviously those you have spreading the news about what's going on is going to be a small number. I am very thankful to Candice for contacting us and giving us this opportunity for exposure. I hope that we can be a place for those who are searching out matters of faith and spirituality, those who are searching for a church family to call home, or those who have just felt like church is the last place they want to go to connect with God. When these people begin to experience a relationship with Jesus in an environment that is real, the stories won't stop.

Thanks AJC for helping us get the word out as we are still gaining our voice. Keep your ears open though, cause I know God has great plans for the many who will connect to Him through Embassy Metro Church. Looking forward to the ongoing buzz of God at work in people's lives!!! I can't wait to hear your story.
