I haven’t said “THANK YOU” in a while so this week I felt compelled to share just a few of the reasons why we are so thankful.  If I don’t take time to give thanks, sometimes, its easy to take things for granted.  This is not a complete list… just some of things that come to mind as we look at God’s faithfulness in our journey towards launching Renew Church.

Sold home in Homestead.  It sold in about 3 weeks and closed in 7! 

New home W. Kendall. This was the first home we looked at several months before, but we weren’t ready to buy… then it came on the rental market and we were able to get a contract with an option to purchase!  (Pray with us on that.)

Old friends. So many people from the Homestead community and our Redland Church family has been amazing in supporting us and praying for us through this transition to Kendall.

New friends. We have loved getting to know new people and are grateful for the relationships we are building in Kendall.

Our amazing family.  This includes the extended family that has supported us through this process and put up with us staying with them on trips to OK and TX.

Renew Church Launch team.  We added 2 more members to our team recently and we are up to 18!  Our goal is to have 45 adults committed to our Launch Team by the end of November.  Interested?  Call me!! 

Church Partnerships.  We raised over $40,000 through our speaking tour and partnerships from 8 different churches.  One church committed over $30,000!  Our fundraising goal is $200K to allow Renew Church not to heavily dependent on tithes and offerings during its first years.  This goal was based on a 3-year budget.

Individual Support.  We had an anonymous donor commit to help us with our monthly salary for 3 years.  Their gift was used for a matching campaign that helped us to raise at least $30,000 more dollars from individuals just like you!  If you are one of those individuals- thank you so much!!  

The ARC Network.  We have learned so much about church planting through their coaching and training intensive and we are implementing it with the help of our coaches, Pradeepan and Amreitha Jeeva from Kalos Church in Washington.  ARC is an interdenominational network that has helped to launch over 800 churches in less than 20 years in the United States.  Thanks, Dr. Brian Wilson, for encouraging us to apply!   

My wife and daughters.  I know that I mentioned family already, but Misty and Emily and Macey have been amazing!  I am proud of the leap of faith they have made to make this vision become a reality.

Memories.  I don’t think our life will ever look like it does right now, and these are memories we will cherish forever. 

Jesus.
  Without my relationship with Him, it would all be meaningless... a chasing after the wind.    

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, He is a new creation.  The old has passed away; behold the new has come.  2 Corinthians 5:17


And by the way...thanks for reading!
