God continues to open up in-roads into the community of Bella Vista. It seems that almost every day I am able to either have breakfast, lunch, or coffee with someone new. Along the way, God has confirmed the fact that Bella Vista is the perfect place to launch Northwest Community Church. I am so grateful for how far we have gotten over the past 4 months. Sometimes I am amazed as I look back on the milestones God has allowed us to achieve in such a short time period: moving to AR, Sarah starting a new job, signing a lease on the BGC, finding a house to rent, hosting our practice services, meeting helpful churches in the area, forming a committed launch team, raising financial support, purchasing portable church equipment, and building key relationships in the community.
As you pray for NCC this week, please pray specifically for this Friday morning. We have been given the opportunity to serve breakfast to the 75 teachers at Cooper Elementary School in Bella Vista. We want to show the teachers our gratitude as we invite them to be apart of our very first official worship service on February 21st. Pray that God will give us favor with the teachers, that He will allow genuine friendships to be established, and that the teachers will be drawn to not only attend our church but to also tell others about us too.
Oh and don't forget that this Sunday (1/17) at 10 a.m. is our last preview service before our launch in February. We're pumped about the service especially since Greg and Cassi Luka will be here for good.
