Immeasurably More!

God is so good and I want to praise him and say thank you to all of you who have been praying for the start of our Gather to Scatter outreach. He is absolutely blowing our expectations out of the water. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, please read last weeks blog first. I know that so many were praying as our mailers hit the community last Tuesday because by the end of the day Wednesday we had already maxed out and over booked our first dinner and were well on our way to filling up our second dinner. God is so stinking awesome!

As of today, less than one week after the first mailer went out, God has completely booked up not 2 but 3 community dinners! We were so overwhelmed by the response that we had to add a third dinner (April 1st @ 4pm). I don't even have the words to express how excited we are and how awe struck we are by the greatness of our God! To put things in perspective, let me give you the numbers. The numbers demonstrate the Kingdom opportunity God has given us through his abundant grace.

As of today, we have 154 adults & 47 children who have made reservations for our 3 Community dinners. That's 201 people we are going to have the opportunity to serve, bless, build relationships with and share the gospel with. That represents over 70 families God is going to allow us to connect with. I'm excited, overwhelmed, scared, intrigued and there are about 100 other emotions running through my heart and mind. We've even canceled the second mailer that was scheduled to go out tomorrow because we wouldn't be able to handle anymore people! I'm blown away and I'm excited to see the life change that God brings through these dinners.

Please keep praying!
