prayer request

This weekend and next, our current church Dogwood Church, is taking up a love offering for browns mill church, the new church that God has called Suzanne and I to help start in Newnan, GA. Each week, Dogwood takes up a love offering called the II Corinthians Offering, named after the passage in II Corinthians 9:6-11. All of the money that is given to this love offering over the next two weeks will help offset the startup costs of browns mill church. Startup costs include filing appropriate paperwork with the IRS for our 501c3 status, promotional materials, a permanent website, church planting network memberships, etc. Please pray that God’s people are generous givers in spite of these tough economic times!

ethan’s birthday

We moved to Atlanta when Ethan was 8 months old. Yesterday, he turned 8 years old. Wow, has the time ever flown! Suzanne and I are so blessed to have 3 beautiful, healthy children who have all begun a lifelong journey of becoming like Jesus by inviting Him into their hearts. I had the privilege of baptizing all three of them.

As someone who can have a tendency toward work-aholism, please keep me in prayer so that I don’t miss important family moments as we move forward with the time intensive process of starting a church.
