January @ The Fields

Greetings from the eleventh hour of 2009.
I'm excited about 2010. I'm really excited to see what God is going to do in your life, all of our lives, and our church as a whole.

I'd like to personally invite you to dive in head first at The Fields Church in January as we all experience a powerful teaching series called "Crazy Love." Every weekend service and every Wednesday night in January is going to be challenging to our faith and journey as we follow and worship Jesus.

Let me break the month down for you guys.

Weekends (Saturday/Sunday gatherings)
We'll gather at our normal times to worship, learn, and respond to God. Both locations will be covering the Crazy Love teaching content.
Also, I'm HEAVILY promoting pre-service Sunday prayer at 8:30 AM in January. Please come and kick-start the year off right!

Wednesday Nights (5:30 meal, 6:30 service)
We'll have dinner. We'll serve a meal from 5:30-6:30p.m. Come when you can and eat before the service.
We'll have special Kids Factory services. A four-week 1st-5th grade kids service will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Kids Factory Room.
We'll have Pipeline discussion groups at special tables during the Crazy Love service in the auditorium.
We'll have childcare for kids birth-Kindergarten.

A few more things...
1. Buy your Crazy Love book for $10 at Common Grounds on Saturdays, in the The Fields Church lobby on Sundays, or at the church office throughout the week.
2. Visit
www.crazylovebook.com for special chapter videos that you can watch as you read the book.
3. Make the weekend and Wednesday services a priority on your calendar. Please set aside the time this coming month to join in on a great way to spiritually kick-start your year.
4. Pray. Pray. Pray. Lets ask God to lead our lives this year. It's a bold prayer, but lets be brave and see what God has in store for us!

Let me pray a New Year's Pray of Blessing on your life as we enter into 2010 tonight.

Lord,
I know you love us. I know you have HUGE plans for our lives. I know following you is the most exciting journey we can ever go on. Help us in 2010 to follow you closer, to love you more, to serve beyond our imagination, and to live the life You have designed us to live. May this coming year be spiritually amazing, powerful, and rewarding. God, we ask you to guide and lead us into 2010. Help us live the way where other people know that Jesus is our Lord, our Leader, and our Resurrected King.


Be blessed all you great people of The Fields!
Have an amazing New Year's holiday.

I can't wait to see everyone THIS weekend!

Heading into 2010 with passion,

Travis

Leg Lamp Christmas Lights


Thanks to the family from The Fields who got me these awesome Christmas tree lights.

They are DEAD CENTER on the tree.

(This will now be an annual battle between me and Joy on how prominent they will appear on the tree.)

Red Light Caroling this Saturday

Red Light Caroling will take place between 6-7p.m. Saturday at the corner of Charleston Avenue and 17th Street.

People from the The Fields Church will be caroling to all the cars that have to stop at the red light on Charleston Avenue in front of Common Grounds.

“The Christmas carolers will be ready to sing every time the light turns red,” said Travis Spencer, pastor of The Fields Church. “You may want to drive around the block a few times just to keep hearing the songs.”

The Fields Church meets at Common Grounds at 7:07 p.m. every Saturday. This Saturday there will be special Christmas music, games, and inspirational teaching regarding Jesus’ birth.

The Fields Church is also buying everyone a hot chocolate from Common Grounds if they come and join in on the 6 p.m. caroling or the 7:07 p.m. Christmas gathering.

I got the bird...

I was surprised to see this bird on my porch today. Can anyone identify it?
