Weekly WINS

Here are some WINS I heard about this past week in Highway 14 and INNERchange.

 

  1. Our first graders are planning an outing to Pump It Up. Jan Coon told me that her grandson Skylar was chanting “Pump it up!” Pump it up!” after church last week.  Jan said that Skylar is very excited about going to Pump It Up with his leader Janelle!
  2. Russ Lee’s 5th grade boys group helped serve a spaghetti dinner to our marathon runners on Saturday night!  What a great idea and way to serve the community together as a small group!  Way to go 5th grade boys!
  3. We have some very dedicated Coaches and Classroom Facilitators in INNERchange and Highway 14!  We couldn’t set up during the week, so we did it all on Sunday morning.  Thank you so much to Dawn Wheaton, Darbee Whipple, Rocky Whipple and Blake Stephens for coming early to help get all of our rooms set up in time for service!  You are all such willing servants, and saved me from getting here in the middle of the night to get it all done. Haha
  4. Our kids have collected a TON of cans for the Thanksgiving Boxes we will be giving out as a New Harvest Church family!  I was amazed at what I saw on Sunday, and we still have one more Sunday to collect. : )
  5. Joanie Crass found me after first service, and told me that Sydney, her first grade daughter, accepted Christ that morning!  Because of a conversation Sydney had with her brother, Jordon, she started asking her parents some questions.  Daron was able to lead her in the prayer to accept Jesus.  What a great father, daughter moment, and definitely a reason to CELEBRATE!

 Have a great week!  It seems that I have been reminded over and over again this past month to make the most of every opportunity God has given me.  I encourage you to do the same.  Your ministry doesn’t end on Sunday morning.  Look for ways this week that God can use you to impact someone else’s life in big ways and small.  : )
