Church We’ve had a great first two weeks of Wednesdays in the Park this summer. It is a big hit and a great time of fellowship and time in the Word. Hope you can join us as we gather in a different park around the city each week on Wednesday nights at 6:30pm. It is a good opportunity for us to be a positive presence in our community each week.
We’ll work on getting the video of the teachings posted on the church website for each week, but here is the first one…enjoy.

Family,
Travel Wow, had an awesome time in Orlando at the Pastors’ Conference and Southern Baptist Convention along with some extra time for family vacation.
Some of the highlights from the Conference and Convention…
Great music…
Our kids loved the Watoto Children’s Choir…
Loved the emphasis on adoption…many of the leaders this year were adoptive families themselves…a new adoption scholarship fund was launched with the conference and one couple received the first gift…powerful…
Fascinating hearing the great mind Ravi Zacharias teach…
Ed Stetzer always has deep stuff about the missional church…
Francis Chan is so powerful…and yet so humble…spoke about the importance of “knowing Christ” and so much more…
Andy Stanley has such great leadership insight…definitely provided some stuff to chew on for awhile…
After the Conference came the Convention…
A very interesting experience as a first time attender…11,000 messengers…where a major emphasis was on the adoption of the recommendations of the Great Commission Resurgence Task Force…
Got to hear the lead singer for Sonicflood sing…
Also got to hear Casting Crowns in concert…
Of course, there was so much more…
Enjoyed the opportunity to represent East Side as well as our family time away together. Thank you East Side!
