LEGACY CHURCH (Lehigh Valley Project)

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!

So.., I'm on my date day with my bride yesterday, (which by the way has been made a major priority in my life given the nature of the beast called church planting) and a friend sends me an email which I did not read until this morning about our blog. No updates since launch?

Pretty lame yes..., but, we are actually in the process of having our blog revamped and updated. Each of the staff will be running their own blog and our hope is to have at least one update a week about our journey on those blogs. So.., until that time, I will give weekly (or more) updates on here.

We are headed into our 4th week as an active church plant. It has been interesting, challenging, exciting, and a ton of other adjectives, but also very busy. Some upcoming events are:

#1 - Sunday the 18th of October - We are going to be the church! On this day, we have chosen 3 service projects in the community to be part of.
- We have adopted approx. 20 families in a rundown motel that is about 1/2 mile from the facility where we meet.
- We will be working with New Bethany Ministries in Bethlehem (A family shelter) and do some painting and cleanup for them.
- We will be hoping a local homeowner in low income housing to do some work and cleanup in their home.

#2 - Sunday the 25th of October - We will be holding our very 1st baptism service! Party time!!

#3 - Sunday the 8th of November - Surprise guests from Virginia Beach! Can't wait - this should be a cool day!

#4 - Sunday the 15th of November - Surprise guests from the Lead Uganda project!

So..., lots of good stuff happening. Stories are starting to be shared and folks are now allowing God to jump into those stories, and we just happen to be part of making that happen. It is such an honor to work amongst the folks of the Lehigh Valley; and we know that we know, that God has put us here for such a time as this!

Thanks for following along! Peace and One Love!
