That is how long we have until some incredible things happen. Our church plant is hosting its first ever Camp in the Park (VBS) this Friday evening and Saturday morning. This is going to be a huge opportunity for our launch team to reach our target community and make our presence in their area be known. And in just 7 weeks are church plant will officially launch at our meeting location. We have been planning like crazy for this big day and while there is still much to be done it is getting very real to our core team and honestly, a bit scary, yet exciting.
This past weekend Justin and I went to a church planting meeting in Jeff City with part of our team and the whole time we were amazed to be sitting in the room. We never imagined that at this point in our lives (or ever) that we would be members of a core team getting ready to plant a church in NW Springfield. But never the less, here we are and we are excited to see where God takes us. Yesterday our planting pastor, JT, spoke at our current campus about why we are planting a church in Springfield and we then sang this song. While our target area isn't a foreign country, this song definitely applies to the group we are trying to reach--the least of these.
Please pray for us and Freshwater Springfield as we prepare for launch on September 8th.
