This Week @ Promise Church 07.23.08

It's hard to believe but summer (at least the school being out part) is almost over! Susan and I will be in South Carolina next week visiting with her family before Will heads back to school the following week.

I'm excited about the upcoming Fall at Promise Church. This summer we've seen the increase in enthusiasm and attendance for our Thursday Night Intercession Service. I have people outside the church ask me all the time about our ministry on Thursday evenings! It's great to talk to people from all over West Tennessee who are all pursuing the presence of God and lifting up our city in prayer.

God has also been prompting my heart to begin ministering to the apartment complexes close to the church on Old Hickory and on North Parkway. Promise Church is perfectly situated to provide a sustaining and nurturing Spirit-filled family for people who are looking for deep, connecting relationships.

There are a lot of possibilities for reaching out to our city with the good news of Jesus. Let's "lock arms" and press forward with love, community, vision and mission! I perceive that God is getting ready to open the flood-gates of blessing as we are obedient to His call to faithfulness!

Blessings,

Pastor Jay



Special Note
Prayerfully consider your tithe or special gift for July. Promise Church's lease will increase by $1000 in August and we are slightly behind schedule on our July budget. Thanks for your continued prayers for our church family!
