To my congregation

Sorry it’s been so long between postings but my past few weeks have been unbelievably busy. So here is a quick post to share some things that are on my heart. God has been so good to us here at Celebration. I am continually amazed at everything that is coming together as New Hope and Celebration merge together. My hope is that there will be no loss of people that would want to find a new church home but I know that would only be a miracle if all people involved stayed with the merge. (at least I’ve been told that it is very rare to keep all people in attendance that are involved in both churches) For those of you at Celebration let me just say that I am proud to be your pastor! I couldn’t have ever imagined being a pastor of such a wonderful group of people as yourselves. Thanks for your faithfulness in your attendance and support both vocally and financially. For my newly formed family of New Hope, I hope you will stay for a while and interact with Celebration. Ask questions about me and Tandi, the way things are done and anything that’s on your mind. Please know that there is room for everyone here and that it is my goal as pastor to make sure you have the very best fit in this body. I’m not asking you to do what you’ve always done in the past but to take time to pray and ask God what it is that would please Him and make you happy as well. I know that we all are in for a wonderful ride so buckle up and hang on…….
