Canvas Update…
Here are some updates and thoughts for me right now:
- We started a new series on discipleship/sanctification. I feel very burdened to have a church that is HEALTHY above all else. I think healthy churches grow, but not all growing churches are healthy. Yeah, its weighty and thick, but its good truth that everyone just needs to know and be.
- Easter is coming up and we are really praying God brings people out for the first time. We’re just gonna elevate Jesus and speak truth. There is a mailer going out that is kinda funny. It says “Shock Your Mama – Go to church this Easter”.
- I have seen so much growth in our people over the last month. I had two people come up to me Sunday and tell me that their lives are changing because of what God is doing in their hearts. That is awesome! More of that, Lord!
- Our family is moving this weekend…ahhhh! Its crazy, but that’s just the way we roll. We are moving off the island and more into the city on 52nd street. The area there is full of families and it gives us someone living in the city so we have an anchor there…plus the house is really cool. 
- Jared and April moved into their new house. I am so proud of them. They have a new house and a new dog, Coco. Mark, Trisha, Trey and Ella are getting to move into a house as well. I’m so happy for them. They need the space with the growing family they have.
- My son, Ryan turned 12 yesterday. I feel old.
- Canvas has several mission teams coming down to do ministry here. One comes the week after Easter. We have 3 teams we are working with in the summer and I was told of one more that is possibly coming in May.
- God is growing Canvas in ways that I would not have thought. But, it’s good, you know? He tends to work in ways that make our plans look foolish. His will be done.
