Ridgeline ReLAUNCH!!!

So, I guess you figured out that my countdown fell flat. Honestly, counting down like that made me more anxious so I canned it. It was a pretty good week.

There were several people there to check out Ridgeline, including several new families. It wasn't overwhelming so that is good. I was praying that we would see just a little more than we thought we could handle so that we knew it was God. I feel like we saw God anyway . . . .no matter how many people showed up. I think we will see more new faces in the coming weeks but hopefully we will keep seeing the same ones too.

Thanks for all your prayers. Things are rocking out here!!! God is awesome!

6 Days and Counting

Ridgeline's reLAUNCH countdown continues . . . .

Today was a good day. Matt reminded us in leaders meeting that we need to stay connected to the Source - Jesus. There are many little things that need to get done this week. But the first order of business is to spend time with our Creator.

On the family front, we had a great day. Lots of fun and laughing. . . . even got a nap in!!! The night was topped off with a trip to 5 Guys Burgers and Fries - YUM!

Although, Matt's broher had a major accident today. He was roping calves and broke his pelvis when the horse stopped. He was care-flighted to the hospital in Ft. Worth where they are awaiting the pelvic specialist to see if surgery is needed or not. It is rough right now so any prayers would be appreciated.

7 Days and Counting . . . .

In 7 days, Ridgeline Community Church will reLAUNCH in a major way. Over the last 3 weeks we have hit about 11,000 homes twice with door hangers - one with a funny top 10 and one with a pop rocks & Coke dare. Statistics say that 1-3% will respond. Think about that with me . . . minimally, that's 110 homes . . . . that's potentially 220 adults and who knows how many kids. Can I get a collective scream???!!

We are excited, scared, thrilled, afraid, and all around anxious but we are praying for peace. Peace for our families this week and peace for Sunday. Praying for no hiccups in the technology, praying we have enough volunteers in RidgeKids, praying we get things together and ready for the visitor bags, praying we keep our heads on straight and save time and sanity for our families.

This is the biggest risk we have taken so far but it is in God's hands now. He is the only one that can make this thing happen. He is the only one.

Matt and I are watching "Facing the Giants" right now and we are both bawling like little girls. We love this movie because it came into our lives a few years ago, right when we needed to hear the message the most: "Nothing is impossible with God" (Matthew 19:26). He does more than we can dream or even imagine. (Ephesians 3:20-21) He blesses just because He can.

Let's see what God has in store for Ridgeline . . . . Stay tuned . . .
