God-given Gifts

Can you believe that July is almost over and we are moving quickly towards the beginning of the school year? The end of July and beginning of August is a crucial time for New Harvest, especially in Family Life. We are working hard to make this an amazing year for all of our families. The key to our success is the incredible volunteers we have that faithfully serve our children and students throughout the year.

The next two weeks we will be presenting opportunities to join our Family Life team as a volunteer. There will be an insert in the bulletin the next two weeks that will give you an opportunity to express interest in serving. All you have to do is fill out the insert and put it in the offering box. Someone will contact you to answer your questions and to help you find out where your God-given gifts can be used the best. I eagerly anticipate working with many of you this coming year. Have a wonderful week!

God’s Blessings, Greg

Servants

There have been some exciting changes going on in our Family Life Center. We unveiled a new set and stage for one of our large group environments for the elementary students. Another stage and set is currently being planned for the Highway 14 large group environment. By the start of the next school year INNERchange and Highway 14 will have a whole new look. When you get a chance, come by and check out what is going on in the Family Life Center.

 

Although I am excited about all the change, what has moved me the most is seeing God’s servants step up in such a huge way. A few faithful servants took to heart Romans 12:10-11 “Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord”. They created a remarkable atmosphere for many of your children making every effort to stay “under the radar”. Those that follow Christ are to be His hands and feet here on earth; these servants are fervently living this out. A huge thank you goes out from the Family Life Team to all those that were involved.

 

I hope to see all of you in the Family Life Center!

 

God’s Blessings, Greg
