leadership change for the AG

Of huge concern in my prayers these days, has to do with the recent resignation of our national executive. In August we will vote on a new leader. Our system so desperately needs change and I am hopeful that we just may be humble enough to receive it now.

I believe we need to transition to a leaner, more eager system, where our national leaders do not get promoted out of the local church into some kind of national office. Therefore, I am asking God for a miracle where we find a way to do just that- promote a Senior Pastor to the job, without asking him to leave his local church!

Please pray with me that we find real vitality here and around the world.

exciting ideas

Vision day produced some exciting ideas yesterday. Maybe an additional service on Sunday morning. Help for kids in the nursury. A possible addition to our sanctuary... one day, if we cannot find more ways to get people into more services.

We need 3 more guys in the Freedom House. We need more believers to own businesses and create jobs for people. We need to find more ways to get people to exciting life change.

still seeking

So many things are being blessed of God that it seems wrong to mention the ones that are not. Yet we still need some things to work out so that great Kingdom good can result:

1. More residents for the Freedom House
2. Resolution for leadership issues and tensions there
3. New sites/churches to emerge
4. New leaders to be raised up
5. A children's pastor/family pastor

A great summer is shaping up, with much fruit. I am very excited about the open Heaven God is giving us!
