Open to the public!

We have finally begun to "open" our sunday gathering to the general public! We still have a long way to go, but the core group that has gathered feels ready to make ourselves available to the public and begun to make some changes in our overall approach and programs.

1. Sunday gathering (6:30pm) will now be a worship service - a small yet significant move from being focused on developing a core group to a gathering of everyone and anyone to "taste the glory of God" in worship. The current series is called "Who is God Anyway?", and everyone's welcome! This past Sunday, we had some new faces joining us. Welcome to those who came for the first time! And thanks to the worship team and the production team for putting together a great worship service - both musically and visually!

2. Life Groups: a little more intimate gathering than the Sunday worship service... We will meet twice a month (2nd and 4th Friday) for a time of fellowship, bible study, and prayer. This is where we become closer as a people of God, for new people to get connected. Eventually we will break off into smaller groups meeting weekly in their neighborhoods. The first meeting is on 10/28 at Paul and Sharon's house. Call me for direction (714-362-1806).

3. Triangle Business Group: As a part of our community service, we are sponsoring and organizing a monthly business group. Two purposes: 1) to provide local businesses an opportunity to connect with one another and share their "leads", and 2) to promote high ethical standards in business and to participate in community charity work together. It is a way for our church to serve the business community so that they can better serve their communities. The first meeting is on 11/2 (wed. 12pm) at the Block (Dave & Buster). Contact me for more info.


God has been faithful to us in the midst of challenges that come with planting a new church. I've personally learned so much that I wouldn't change this experience with anything else. However, I know God wants our church to be more than a learning experience. And, for that, we will keep asking for God's spirit and his hands. And, we will keep doing our very best to be used by Him. May the Lord find us in his grace.
