Highlights from Clovis Hills

We've only been at Clovis Hills for a little over a month now, but there's already been some really cool stuff going on. We came in on the beginning of a building campaign. The church was trying to raise $1.6 million to prepare for the growth that is going to take place around the campus. In the next year a new high school, Jr. high, elementary school, and college extension campus will be opening across the street. An influx of thousands of families will be moving into the area surrounding the church. Clovis Hills needs to be ready to minister to these people, so they are preparing to add on to the youth building and finish the landscaping. We currently are at $1.5 million, and still moving. It was really cool to watch the congregation step up and get excited about being ready for the growth.

I got to be a part of one of the feature songs during the series. About 40 of us wrote our testimony in a few words on large arrows. On one side we wrote words describing our lives before Christ and after on the other side. It was very powerful, and really cool to be a part of. Check out the picture.

Now, we are in the second week of 40 Days of Community. Paul and I are hosting a small group for young married couples at our apartment. We are really enjoying the people in the group and are excited about what could come out of this. I'll write more in the future about Three Wishes For Clovis. Stay tuned....=)
