Making New Connections Is Building Life and Hope At Good Sam
Perhaps you have heard that we are connecting with our neighbors with new energy and a deeper sense of welcome at Good Sam. At Eat and Play Fellowship we have neighborhood children and families joining us; during the Eagle Scout project building the Stations of the Cross neighborhood children got involved and stayed to have a meal. On Sunday September 30th we will be receiving a new group of members who are walking together in faith and there are others who are already becoming active participants with us in worship and in our community activities. All of these activities are about Making New Connections.
Last week we received our first installment of our New Connections Grant. This $9,000 will help pay the salary of our new Coordinator of Mission and Engagement, Kelly Thurber and other training and engagement materials in the next year. We hope you have met Kelly and your ministry group is beginning to think about how you too can begin Making New Connections both at Good Sam and in our community. Kelly would love to be involved, help get the word out and assist you in these efforts.
Already our Making New Connections efforts are having an impact on our worship life, our fellowship life, the new and expanding relationship we are making in the community. Thank you for supporting this program through your participation, your good will, your offerings and your prayers to God for this work in which we all share. I thank God for the steadfast and faithful love with which we are loved and upheld in Christ and I thank God for the faithfulness that is being reflected among us as we give ourselves in response to the love we have known in Christ. I am so proud to be among you as your Pastor.
Pastor Mitch Watney
