Shorthanded

Hey Element Church! MANY of our regular and trusty set up crew is not going to be available on Sunday. If there are any of you Elementers out there who could sacrifice one week of sleeping in a bit to come at 6:30 AM to help set up that would be a HUGE help! We do a LOT of set up and with as many road crew members out that we'll have it is gonna leave a HUGE hole. If you can come and help please email me so we know who to expect. Also, there is a noon movie being shown this Sunday which means we are in for a super fast tear down. Anyone who can come back at 11:45 to help tear down or stay after 3rd service would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Element Church! Just thought I'd share we've had a few people join the e:team for our new 9:45 AM worship service, BUT WE NEED MORE! If you'd like to become a part of an awesome team of people who are connecting others with LIFE every week please let us know. We have lots of opportunities to join the 9:45 team. Please email our office if you are interested in joining our team.

Following Christ,

Jeff

What keeps us going!

Church planting is hard! Getting people to come to a church that doesn't really exist yet, as you can imagine, can be VERY difficult. Here is an email we received last week from an individual. I did not ask for permission to use it so I won't include names or even genders but wanted to share this.

Hi my name is --- and I have visited your church twice now and I really like it. The vision of your church falls in to an area that I am very passionate about. There are few churches today willing to step up and break out of the traditional noose, country club, everyone has a membership association. Sure inside the church walls are pretty and decorated so finely but, if you really want to draw people in you have to go out. Scripture says take up your cross and follow me everyday. I want to do that. I want to be a slave for Christ. I hope that I can visit with your ministry team in the near future. Until then I hope your day is blessed!

We received another email from someone that was cool...

I wanted to touch base with you on getting involved. I've been sort of stepping back and praying, but feel the "green light" from the Lord at this point.

This person has a couple of "passions" in ministry that they would like to get plugged in to at Element. God is good. He continues to bring us people hungry to serve and to connect and help connect people with life.
