So Many Thoughts.....

I realized I have so much to say that I don't know where to start. The Commons has been greatly blessed these last few months. It's outrageous the amount of God's love that I have been allowed to see.
This past Sunday we had a block party after service. But the number of attendees for the service was BIG. We had 128 people show up for The Commons service on Sunday!! 128!! This is a big number. And we were even missing a few families that we might consider regular!! Amazing blessing from God here folks!
The block party was excellent. The weather couldn't have been better! The kids always enjoy the inflatables and snow cones. We had BBQ sandwiches for the big kids. And they enjoyed it as well.
It was a busy day. At the church at 8:30 for set up. Tear down after service while setting up for block party. Break down block party. We had a small crew for set up and a small crew for tear down. The cool thing is a guy took his family home just to turn around and help us put everything back.
One of the coolest things lately is seeing a few of our people step up. I never realized how much it took to 'set-up' church. I have mentioned before how I think some take for granted that the coffee is there in the coffee pot....but do you know who set up the coffee station--is it always there--who made that pot--and how is it magically being filled...when there is an actual person that does it. This is what I did at Summit in Little Rock. I took it all for granted. Now after being at the Commons for 9 months....I see....
