Update

Had a great Life Group on Sunday. Have had some new faces that returned so that is great. We are doing a study on The Purpose Driven Life. Still frustrated trying to get more people to that but in time they'll come. Have LOTs of folks who are definitely interested. Moving them from interested to attending to committed to serving is a HUGE task.

Grant talked to the General Manager of the Big D gas stations in Cheyenne. He pitched an idea to her for a servant evangelism project that we learned of through another church planter. It's called a "gas buy down". We find a partnering gas station who will let us pay down the price of gas by 25 cents per gallon. The pumps are changed, signs changed, and the customer pays the 25 cents off while we then pay the gas station the other 25 cents per gallon pumped. It's a guaranteed win for the gas station. Basically a continuous stream of gas. We pump all the gas for each customer, give them a connection card and show the community our desire to serve first. Simply put, it's our simple way to show God's love to Cheyenne. There is a really cool story from the church we got the idea from I'll have to share sometime. We are planning on doing this Saturday, May 26th. Anyone who would want to come down from Gillette to help would be greatly appreciated. Once this is finalized we'll have more info.

I'm flying to Tulsa tomorrow to pick up my fam and drive them back home. The house won't be so quiet anymore. Can't wait to see them all.

Those are some updates, thanks for following along.

Following Christ,

Jeff
