Hello ChangePoint family,
Here's a quick update on what's been happening at the Northeast campus.
Our first Easter service was a blast! We had a full family service that included participation by our children. Children assisted in leading worship, prayer and facilitating the welcome. When I asked for volunteers to help with a sermon illustration, you should have seen young boys and girls storm the stage, it was hilarious. We ended the service taking communion together as a family followed by great fellowship and a potluck dinner.
We are nearing the end of an exhilarating 14 week journey to the book of James. Next month we'll begin mining the book of Ephesians. Stoked!
New faces are popping up every week, many young couples, most are from the military community. In the last 3 weeks we've had 4 new families join our church family. Praise God for the growth!
We are currently in the 4th week of our baseline discipleship program "Strategies for Discipleship." It's been a rich time of personal and spiritual growth and discovery as we learn about God and each other while developing critical skills for discipling others.
On Sunday, May 20 we are taking the church into our community. Instead of the traditional Sunday service gathering in the Bartlett High school theater, the members of ChangePoint Northeast Anchorage will serve as volunteers at the Golden Nugget Triathlon. This annual event has been held at Bartlett high school on the 3rd Sunday in May for many years. The Golden Nugget Triathlon is dedicated to improving the lives of women and girls to athletics. Over 2000 people from all across our state participate annually.
So, rather than create conflict and needless safety concerns, ChangePoint Northeast has partnered with the leaders of this event, offering volunteer support and perhaps even a cool drink of water to those in need as they pass by. We're elated for the opportunity to demonstrate the heart of Jesus Christ to our community through our partnership with this event.
In summary ChangePoint Northeast Anchorage is a healthy, happy, growing young baby. We're off to a great start but we have a lot to learn. Please continue to pray for God's wisdom and protection as we continue to advance the grace based Gospel of Jesus Christ into their communities of Northeast Anchorage.
And stay tuned, the best is yet to come...
