Crazy August!

Whew, we can finally take a few deep breaths because August is over! August is our craziest time of the year. There is so much to plan, so many events to execute, so many leaders to train, and so many people to meet! Not that all of that is done yet, but with the beginning of school there is a lot that needs to be done FAST. Not only is August the busiest time of the year but it is perhaps one of the most crucial. In a lot of ways it determines are sphere of impact for the rest of the year. The more people we meet and get in contact with in the first couple weeks of school, the more people we will be able to impact as the year goes on.

With all that said, I'd say it was a great success! We met TONS of people. I really think it would be safe to say that this has been our most successful start to a school year since I remember at Collin. Our Corefas did an amazing job getting out there, sacrificing their time and comfort zones, and meeting as many people as possible. We've had great turn outs at Thursday Night Fellowship, as well as our cores which have started this week.

Now the real work begins! The work of seeing where people are at in relation to God and trying to move them onto His agenda. Please be praying fervently for that process! We have started a series at TNF that goes through the story of God and his people (Creation, The Fall, Sin Full Grown, God's Invitation, Our Response, Chains Broken, and Living Free), Cores have just started up, Discipleship class starts next week, and one on one bible studies will be popping up in no time. We need your prayers that God would make all of these successful and do His heart changing work that only He can do!

I'm excited to see the fruit He produces!

Much love and thanks!
