February 17 Coffee Church Highlights

Congrats to Terrance and Gina who were both baptized this weekend at the Hazel Dell Campus!? So amazing to hear their stories and see the change that Jesus is done in their lives!? My favorite part is that neither of them who say they have it all together and that is exactly what baptism is?a declaration of a dependence on God, not an arrival at perfection.? Any time you are ready to make that declaration, sign up to be baptized at www.coffeechurch.com.? We?ll fill the hot tub and make it happen!? Pictures coming soon!!

I got to introduce Lorraine, 94 years old, and Loretta, 91 years old, to each other on Sunday.? Both of them attend our church with their grandkids?isn?t that SO cool?? God changes lives and hearts and that impacts GENERATIONS!? As the first Christian in my family, it is not lost on me that my grandkids will be different because of my decision to follow Jesus.

The 3-5th Grade boys had a Nerf Gun War Party after church on Sunday.? Awesome young men!!!!

We are looking forward to next Sunday for our Annual Celebration Meeting.? It?s a great time to get to hear about all that God is doing at our church!? We are meeting at Hazel Dell at 4:00 pm and Battle Ground at 7:00 pm.? You are welcome to attend either campus (or both!) as the information will be the same, although campus specific staff will be sharing at their campus only (ie, Kim will share about Kid City at HD and Vanessa at BG).??Everyone will be sharing on behalf of the church as?a whole!??We?ve had a couple of people ask why we don?t have one meeting.? Short answer:? we don?t fit in one building at one time.? That?s a good problem!??This solution?of two meetings also alleviates some drive time for most people, which is a good deal!

If you have a preschool age student, we will be opening registration for the North Creek Learning Center on March 1.? This?week day preschool is located at our Battle Ground location and has been an asset to?the community for?17 years.? We look forward to continuing on?with the?legacy passed along to us!??More info to come soon!

titleAs a church?the challenge has been set before us to memorize a chapter in the book of James?are you up for it?? I?took on?chapter 5?if you choose that chapter, start in the middle and work backwards.? The first?few verses are a tongue twister and it?s discouraging!? It?s easier to get some success under your belt and then tackle the rest.? Here?s a good life lesson: do hard things.??it?s worth the work!? The easy way will probably not help you to?grow and become all that God has for you!? P.S.? Our Kid?s pastors are encouraging all the?K-5th graders to memorize James 1.? I?m pretty confident that the kids will be amazing at?it!!!

I love how Jesus changes lives!

I hope that this week brings about a new resolve in your heart to be unstoppable for Him.? Be blessed!
