Sunday Rewind 3.21.10

Hey, everyone!  I apologize for not posting the last few weeks.  On top of moving into a new home and launching two services this week I have had a few kinks with the blog and did not have time to resolve them, but it looks like we are good to go now!

- This Sunday was the launch of two services at Meadowland Church. For the first time we hosted  9:00 am and 11:00 am  worship services.

- Thanks to our Staff, Ministry Leaders, and Volunteers the two service launch was really smooth.  There were no big breakdowns (that we know of anyway)!

- Saturday night I was a little freaked out a little bit about making the move to Two Services and wondered if we were making a mistake, God quickly reminded me that I am not in control, and that HE WILL BUILD HIS CHURCH. (Matthew 16:18)

- Between both services there were 143 people here on Sunday and there was plenty of parking, seats in the auditorium, and room for growth in the Children’s Miniistry and Nursery Area! Just so you know 143 has been disputed, one of our counters said they counted more adults than were actually on the count sheet, but we will stick with what we got on record!

- This week was week #2 in our current series called “Treasure”.  Last week we talked about how we handle our personal finances and money. This week we studied Matthew 6:5-18, where Jesus teaches us about Prayer and Fasting.

- In Matthew 6:21, Jesus says that our heart follows our treasure.  The things that are really important to us, are REALLY Important to us.

-  Usually our prayer life surrounds our Treasure.  We pray about our income, our retirement accounts (our 401k’s are now 201k’s), our families, how to spend our time, how we should raise our children, and the list goes on and on…..

But what if Prayer has very little to do with asking God for Stuff, or trying to get God more active in our “to do lists” and priorities.  What if God had more in store for our prayer lives than simply asking Him for more stuff!?!

- If you are interested in hearing the message or passing it along, you can find it HERE.

-  I have had a couple conversations with different people who said they found FREEDOM in God’s truth this last week!  Praise the Lord!

- I am PUMPED to close out the Treasure Series this Sunday 3.28.10.  If you want a head start on the message read Matthew 6:25-34 sometime this week!!  Seriously, you do not want to miss next Sunday at Meadowland Church.

- Hey Meadowland Easter is two weeks away!  Start inviting your friends and family now!!  You do not want to miss what God is doing in and through Meadowland Church!!

Good Friday Service (Friday, April 2nd) @ 6:30 pm

Easter Services (Sunday, April 4th) 9:00 am and 11:00 am

- I am so thankful to be on the Journey with you Meadowland Church.  Jesus is doing Amazing things in and through the people who are Meadowland Church. I cannot wait to see what is ahead!!
