Saturday, January 2, 2008 Outreach

Wow!  What an amazing time with the Body of Christ today!!!  We started the day off with our Team Meeting and the Word.

Meeting Notes from today:

"Let's do it again in 2010."  "This is a great time to not think about 'new' things that I want to do this year, but perhaps we can think about the things that we have been called to do but have been avoiding or procrastinating against them."

Website
Daniel Fountain is going to help with building our very own website: design and content.
Having our own website will allow us to make our own advertisements.  For example, we could do a live 30 second video announcement and upload it to the website.  The spoken Word is so powerful.

Also, think how easy it would be so someone to just click a button and have all of our announcements, prayer journal, etc at the click of a button.  This would be another avenue for the Body to stay informed and updated.  Also, this is something that is available Internationally.  Greater Grace WORLD Outreach.  Person, Corporate, and International Vision.

Saturday Morning Outreach
There are about 11,500 doors for us to knock on.  Right now, we have split into 2 areas:  The Hill & East of Route 40.  We want Outreach available for anyone to just jump right in and move forward with the team.

Men's and Women's Ministry
1.  The times that they get together should be a time of edification. 
2.  This will be a great in-reach to our Body and also will be a great out-reach to those who will not come to a "church service." 
3.  Think of an event that could be hosted/sponsored by them opened to the public.

************************

Then, after Outreach, we had a great time of Testimonies at Frank's Pizza.  There were so many Divine Appointments - maybe someone would like to post one to share with everyone???

It was awesome to have Melanie out Soul-Winning with us today.  Also, it was an honor to have Pastor Cliff Vicent and Becca with us today.  P. Wright opened up the Word and asked P. Cliff  to share.  Both portions were timely and straight from the Throne - wow - we are so fed!
