Our Mission Statement

This week's meeting was graced by the presence of my beautiful fiance Julie McKee, who has just returned from her 16-month mission in West Africa.  She was kind enough to cook some amazing stir fry for our dinner.  Also, thanks to Brandon for being willing to host.

We had great attendance this week, so we had much livelier discussion on what our new focus should be for the group.  We were once again unanimous on the following points: our overarching mission is to do all for the glory of God and make disciples of all nations AND we need to continue meeting weekly for dinner, fellowship, and the strengthening of our faith through God's Word.

After throwing around a lot of ideas and some excessive details, we all felt pulled to the following mission statement (verse highly recommended by Mr. Jason Frick):

Whatever we do = ____________________
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."  --1 Corinthians 10:31

We plan to fill in the blank with one of the following acts of service OR something else God lays on our hearts this week.  Next week we will share what we hear God telling us.  Please be praying (and listening!)
  • Working with the Victory Baptist Food Pantry
  • Troubleshooting technical problems for members of the community
  • Helping renovate the building purchased for House of Hope
Also next week, we will return to the Training for Trainers (T4T) series.  Please contact me if you'd like to host.

God Bless!
