Hi!  This is Neil, your Community Life Pastor.

Happy New Year! How has your first week of 2016 been? Hasn’t the rain brought a sense of freshness and new beginnings to the air? While listening to the rain yesterday it felt like the rain was washing through my soul. Worry and regret seemed to flow right out of me. I thought:

What do I have to worry about? I have so much to be thankful for! A wonderful wife, four loving kids, a great son-in-law, and an amazing 4 month old granddaughter. Plus I have a relationship with God, who loves me greatly, and has my best in mind.

I’m not sure why the rain brought that comfort, but it did. I pray God will bring similar comfort to each of you as you begin this New Year. God is good!

Speaking of new beginnings, if you are have not yet gone through Rooted, I want to recommend you sign up for our winter session starting on January 14th. This Sunday (the 10th) is the last day to sign up.

I promise this experience will amaze you, I don’t want you to miss it! If you’ve completed Rooted but are no longer with your group, consider signing up for a Life Group. We have a group just for you.  These two opportunities are the best way to get connected and build community.

Blessings on you and your family! See you Sunday!

Neil
