Its been an amazing week of prayer and hearing from God and the people of New Beginnings Church! As you should know by now, the leadership of NBC has proposed the closing of our church at the end of the year (if you haven't read the post, read it HERE). We feel strongly that this is God's leading and His plan.
My one-on-one conversations continue this week, and this coming Sunday the 29th, we'll have an "all-come" meeting, 1pm @ Emmanuel. This will be an open conversation regarding the proposal, so bring your questions and words of encouragement and join us! The vote for church members takes place on Sunday, Sept. 12th. Please be in prayer about this important matter.
As always, I am here for you. Please call or email or comment on this post...I'd love to hear from you...listen to you...and pray with you about this.
Blessings to you, my friends.
In His Service,
Pastor Kevin
