Finding our Groove

Random list of things that are beginning to click:

The past 45 days have really been amazing. We have definitley tapped into Big Mo (Momentum) and things are beginning to roll. We have broke our high attendance record twice in the past few weeks and God is continuing to bring people to the embassy that got skillz. Our small groups are generating buzz for the first time since we launched them in February. My wife has been able to attend service as others have filled in for her at the helm of the embassy kids ministry. The band is really coming together and several new people are on the edge of getting invovled with it. (looking forward to having the band do covers live of popular bands to add to the service instead of just cd versions of the songs). (Thanks Pastor Jared & Charla). We are growing more in diversity and that rocks! Echo youth is growing not only numerically, but spiritually and socially (Thanks Pastor Robby & Jamie). We have had an influx of 20 somethings which is a big reason why we started the embassy in the first place! Tomorrow at 11:30 I am meeting a group of KSU (Kennesaw State University) students for pizza at the Mellow Mushroom across the street from KSU. I look forward to the day when dozens of students are connecting with God and each other through the efforts of the embassy. Lives have been changed. People are coming to Christ, others are finding balance.

AND I'M LOVIN' IT!!!!!!!

Thanks to everyone that has given to make the embassy possible, and thanks to the emc team y'all rock!
