Sunday reflections

Another great Sunday at First Assembly.

Some highlights:

- We wrapped up the God of this City series. People responded by writing their names all over a piece of mosaic art we have been creating over the past four weeks. This time, their names symbolized a willingness to sacrifice anything to carry out God's mission for His Church. Pretty powerful moment in the service. (I'll blog about this whole four-week process of tiles, the cross, names, and mosaic art later this week.)

- Brian Williamson (H.S. student from Neoga) did a good job rocked the house singing a Brandon Heath song called Give Me Your Eyes.


- Everyone was challenged to lay down their fear and invite spiritually disconnected friends to experience God at First Assembly. We gave everyone one of these cards.

Read about our cards at Evan's Blog.

- We continue to have new faces each week. Really excited about families coming and checking us out. We hope they find First Assembly as a place they can connect to Jesus and be inspired to live life to its fullest.

- We celebrated over a very meaningful Thank You card we received from a group of recovering meth users that use our facilities each week for a gathering place. What a great way to help out in our community!

- We announced next week's series: Express Yourself. It will be another great Sunday next week! (Artwork will be posted this week.)
