Canadia Blogumentary #1...

yes... I said Canadia!
Today has been a long day!
Flying. Layovers. Customs. Being chosen to undergo the scrutiny and intimidation of being "chosen" for extensive luggage and declarations claims checks.

So I am in Canada this entire week to prepare for a church planting project this summer called PowerPlant.
Chad is the ministry coordinator up here and doing a great job of preparing a core group of people to launch their church not long after P2 this summer.

I got off the plane this afternoon and went straight with Chad to the community. We grabbed dinner at the local fair - Curly Portable's. I had some great local Seafood Chowder - good stuff!

After dinner we went to their home group. The decided not to meet yesterday (Sunday) and so they all just met tonight! There is an excitement in the group about shaping their community.

Already I can tell such a difference in our cultures. I feel like im over seas except I can understand their language... most of the time!

This week is going to be great! I can already tell this match was one that God Himself has ordained. God leading me to Lifepoint not that long ago has prepared me immensely for speaking into the lives of this core up here. They are so eager to learn. And the thing is... I can't believe God is allowing me to help them.

Who am I that God would allow me to have this kind of ministry to other church-planters?

Thanks for a Great Week!

Shout out to my new peeps from Arkansas, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio.
Thanks PowerPlant for a great week! I really enjoyed investing in your lives so now you will invest in the life of someone else. Remember to represent Jesus well. Live strong. Love Jesus. Expand His Kingdom. Peace, Love, and Church Planting!

Church Planting

It has been such an amazing week so far. I feel as though I have really been connecting with the students that God has brought to VA Beach this week to aid in church planting. I have really enjoyed championing students to go out into this community and take it by storm for Jesus. The church planters are all committed to seeing their communities impacted for the Kingdom. Here are some pics from our worship services where I have been speaking...

PowerPlant

I am so excited about this week! I will be speaking all week for a church-planting missions project in Virginia Beach, VA. I leave tomorrow afternoon and will be speaking through the end of the week. I am pumped about the series I will be doing as I encourage a load of students in their church-planting endeavors.  I'll try to keep you posted on the week! VA BEACH doesnt know whats about to hit them! God is going to turn the community upside down!
