A New Start...

It is time to put 2010 to bed. What a year! It has been filled with its share of ups and downs, goods and bads. But, in the end, I wouldn't trade it for anything. During this year, I learned a great deal about humility, grace, patience, prayer, forgiveness, and love. I was also reminded of what really matters, and of those things that we take too seriously but shouldn't. 2010 was a learning year... and I can't wait to see how the lessons we share "hit the ground in 2011". God has so many wonderful things in store for us!

We begin a new sermon series this Sunday entitled, "The Me I Need to Be for 2011". The next four weeks are:

2nd: Resolutions—BEcoming more committed
9th: Relationships—BEcoming more connected
16th: Resources—BEcoming more capable
23rd: Reach—BEcoming more compassionate

Remember, Fairpoint Campus-- 8am, 9:30am or 11:00am. And, of course, we also have excellent worship and teaching at our Soundside campus -- 8am, 9:00am and 10:30am. Our Worship at the Water worship campus will not return for several weeks.

Also, on another note, I make the following commitment to you-- I will update this blog on a regular basis. Like last year, I want us to make this journey together. So, I look forward to meeting you here each week, to share what God is doing and, especially, to learn how we each get to be a part of it. What a blessing!

Be Salt and Light, my friends... You matter!
