God is Good!

As I walked into the sanctuary on Sunday morning, it felt good. I guess I need to say that God felt good in that place. As folks slowly meandered in for service you could tell everyone was glad to see one another and be together to worship God. During the passing of the peace, which I realized I caused to last forever, a visitor asked if I would be willing to open the doors of the church for new members. With tears in my eyes I said of course we will. Following the sermon, I opened the doors of the church to those who wished to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and those seeking a church home. As I waited, 10 visitors joined me up front! 10 of God's children walked up to the front and asked to join Westminster in ministry. The tears came rolling down my face and I was overjoyed! We prayed, cried, laughed, and rejoiced as we welcomed each one of them. Mark, Kelly, Lexi, Brandon, Amber, Hunter, Stephanie, Rick, Tracy, and Sierra are the newest members at Westminster. On Sunday I reminded the church that our goal this year for new members was 10. Well, we exceeded that goal and now have 11 new members! Next year, 20! To God be the Glory! Amen CHURCH!
