Wow! God is great! There was much anticipation and excitement for this past Sunday. Like you have read before, its a new chapter that has started at First Church of God. Personally, I was excited and sad at the same time. Simply put, I wished my grandfather was here.
It was great to see everyone enthusiastically bustling around the hall to make sure all was set to go. The necessary teams were prayed up and prepped and ready to minister. The welcome team (greeters and ushers), the worship team (vocals and musicians), the prayer team, etc... everyone was doing their part from 9 am leading up to 9:30.
Worship started at 9:30 sharp and it definitely helped in ushering the people into His presence. It was followed by the ministry of the Word ... the world was given a fresh start with the birth of Christ, we can also get a fresh start if Christ is born in our hearts and living inside of us. That and altar call ended by 10:20. Then it concluded with song, offering and announcements.
We could not believe that the designated seating area was full and service was complete in 1 hour! There's always a first time! =) Trusting in God for the future! Keep the team in prayer!
Enjoying The Ride,
Cecil
