A Word From Caleb

 

Wow. Last Sunday was crazy……powerful……special. God moved. And many of you are beginning to move, too! And we’re just getting started. Join us this Sunday as we continue the journey. And don’t forget: pumpkins, pancakes, and a something I think will be really, really FUNNY.

Invites went out THIS WEEK to many of your friends, neighbors, co-workers, coaches, teachers… So NOW is another great time to extend a follow-up, personal invitation. (I’m hoping to see the server from a restaurant that Hilary and I just went to.)

Next Steps:

As you see world-change and life-change in action, please tell us the stories! Email Christen

One of the main opportunities we heard about last Sunday was the Pacific Court Community Center. If you are interested in being part of tutoring, teaching ESL, or have other skills or gifts you think could be beneficial there, please contact Chris.

In fact, if you felt God calling you to step out into your community, armed with compassion, and would like to find the best way to do that; contact Chris.

Blessings,

A Word From Caleb

Friends,

I remember waking up the middle of the night in high school with growing pains – not Kirk Cameron’s show – but the agonizing calf-cramps that accompany a growth spurt. My calves would seize and I’d shoot up in bed with a screech – not the guy from Saved By the Bell – but the loud, unplanned noise that comes from shocking pain.

Any time a church grows as quickly as we have, there are growing pains. We’ve doubled in size and we’ve double our services. That is INCREDIBLE! It’s not normal. God is up to something.

But, what’s clear, is that WE NEED YOU! We’re in this together.

I hope to see you TONIGHT for our Volunteer Night – 6pm at the Mariners HB offices (2124 Main St #260). Tonight is a great night to meet more people, plug into places to serve, and get a glimpse of the future of volunteering at Mariners HB. (rain or shine)

**Also, make sure you bring a friend this Sunday. The Outreach Team has done amazing work. This will be a special weekend.

  • Outreach Experience that I can’t even describe – you just have to see it
  • Food truck
  • Band
  • Bounce house

October is a big month at Mariners Church Huntington Beach! See you soon…

WHAT AN AMAZING WEEK! Our Grand Opening exceeded all our expectations. We met a lot of new people and our faithful community served in huge ways. It’s clearly a new day at Mariners Church Huntington Beach! Thank you to those of you who joined us. We are SO EXCITED about our church and about what God is doing.

Here’s more good news: This week will be just as exciting. I have a message I’m inspired to share with you as we continue to talk about who we are–as individuals, and collectively–and how God has a mission for our lives.

Make sure you’re staying in touch with us on Facebook as we post on the page daily.

See you Sunday!

Friends,

I’m so excited about this weekend! Sunday we go to two services: 9am and 11am at the HB Central Library Theater. Over the summer, we’ve seen our weekend attendance grow to filling our theater at 75% capacity. Any time you get around 80%, people start to feel like the building is full. So….we’re going to two services to create more space. We believe that we’re entering into a growth season at our church. This is going to be a fun ride!

To celebrate the change, we’ll have tacos and a bounce house after both services. Come play!

Also, many of your friends and neighbors have received an invite to our Grand Opening in the mail this week. Now would be a great time to follow up with a personal invitation.

These next few weeks we’ll be talking about who we are as a church–what our vision is and where we believe we’re going.

Can’t wait to be with you this weekend!
