It’s Tuesday and I have finally overcome my spiritual hangover from Sunday’s Launch Sunday event. It took me 1 day to feel human again and 2 days to feel like a Christian again.
The dust has settled and numbers have been crunched. Its not all about the numbers, but it is all about the RIGHT numbers. TWENTY people placed their faith in Jesus Christ as their Savior. 20!!! What? There are churches that do not see 1 in an entire year. This is a move of God. Add that to the 15 during our Prelaunch Gatherings, and you are a part of something special Vinings Church.
And the best is yet to come.
50 people were serving on our Ministry Teams. People walked in telling me “Justin, the parking lot is BLUE.” Family ministry Children’s environments were explosive and creative, thanks to volunteers. Our signs were insane. And the Adult environment was… Epic! To give you a perspective of the level of detail our ministry teams put into this, the auditorium smelled of coffee! Clapping and cheering rocked the auditorium.
We told the Story of God. And elevated the central character in the Story, Jesus. 20 salvations. God is using the work of your hands, Vinings, and next week will be better.
Good News, our third Sunday we are shutting down church and holding a serveCOBB event for the community to come to. Home Depot is passing out 10,000 serveCOBB cards for the October 2nd event. They will send 40 volunteers to serve with us. Unbelievable. Mark your calendars for serveCOBB Oct 2nd, our 3rd Sunday in existence.
