Psalms 145:1-6 (NIV)
I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name forever and ever. Every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. One generation will commend your works to another; they will tell of your mighty acts. They will speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works. They will tell of the power of your awesome works, and I will proclaim your great deeds.

Let me tell you a short list of the awesome works God is doing in you and through you:
1. Last weekend we set a “normal weekend” attendance record. We had 3,697 in worship! God has to smile when He sees His kids coming in His honor to spend time in worship.
2. I have received numerous (more than a handful & less than a hundredJ) reports about how you invited friends to Christmas Eve, or this past weekend, and THEY CAME TO CHURCH! YOUR INVITATIONS MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
3. The Orphanage Project in Peru is PAID IN FULL! Fifty-thousand dollars through your generosity will directly impact the lives of 2,000 children! Three meals a day, an education, AND the opportunity to hear about Christ!
4. We have a record number of kids playing basketball this year…over 460 kids! This means more opportunity to reach and connect with those who do not yet know Christ in a personal way!
5. We haven’t had really cold weather yet but, when we do (and we willL), there’ll be over 1,200 who’ll be warmer as a result of your generosity during our Fall Coat Drive! Hope and Love given as a tangible expression of Christ’s love.
Well, my meeting is about to begin, so I had better wrap this up…just wanted to share some of the things I’ve been meditating on and, to remind us all, how great is our God!
Have a great rest of your day,
Pastor Ken
That is UNREAL!!!!! Praise GOD! I love my church & can't wait until this weekend.
