Undeniable Love

Tonight was great! We had a few friends from Salem Vineyard come out and help out with worship, that was cool. We had a few new faces in the crowd, and that was exciting. But best of all, God was in the House! :) Seemed like several people had God speaking to their hearts, either through the music or the word, and that's what it's all about, drawing closer to Him. Good stuff. Listen, if you're in the neighborhood next week, please come and check us out, it's going to be good! We've been talking the last couple of weeks about being filled up with Gods love and loving Him in return, this next week we're going to dream a little and challenge the status quo. What's it look like to move out of the boat?

Oh How He Loves Us

I love listening in to Cincinnati Vineyards podcasts. The pastor there had a blog called "Things I wish I would have said on Sunday" or something like that. I need a space like that also. Not that Saturday Night wasn't great, it was awesome! BUT I really wanted to quote A.W. Tozer, and I forgot to... So here's the quote “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.”

― A.W. Tozer

Now check out the message when it posts to our website this week, and hopefully you'll see the application. :) http://www.eastvalleyvineyard.com

Hope to see you this Saturday night.

Our First Gathering

Last night we had our first gathering for East Valley Vineyard. God was so good! The worship was excellent, there was a really sweet spirit in the place. Feed back on the children's ministry was great too, ALL the kids had a good time! Next week we'll be back at it, and I am excited to talk about the prodigal son. Saturday, 6:00 pm, at Oak Street. :) Hope to see you there

Saturday is Coming!! :)

We are so excited for Saturday to get here! Joanie and I and the whole Core team have been working like mad to get ready for opening up services to the public. Let's see... Kids area, done. Nursery, done. Media, working on it. Worship team, I think we're ready. Bulletins, welcome packets, signs, working working working. :) Big breath. God, grant us the wisdom to do what must be done, and the peace to leave it all in your hands. The really good news is that we have been constantly encouraged in Him by our community. There are so many people praying and serving, it is very humbling. You can check us out on Saturday, September 10th at 6:00, and if you get a chance take a look at our website; www.eastvalleyvineyard.com

Hope to see you there!

Soft Launch

Last Saturday night we had a "soft Launch" for all of our key workers and leaders for East Valley Vineyard Church. It was so good to worship together, pray, and share a vision of what we hope this community will be all about. God really pricked my heart over the importance of being a welcoming community right where we're at. So often people get tired of dis-genuine people, that's not who we're called to be! We're called to be salt and light! Wanna hear more? Come and join our launch Sept. 10th at 6oo pm!
