New Series- Escaping Ordinary

Wouldn't you like to escape sometimes? Truth is we all would at times.

This Sunday we begin a new series title 'Escaping Ordinary.' We learned that we have permission of God to escape our mundane and 'ordinary' lives. The reason you may ask. Sure, it is because you were not made to be normal- or Ordinary. In Bruce Wilkerson's book 'The Dream Giver' he speaks of us all as 'Ordinary' living in a town of 'Familiar' with a bunch of 'Nobodies.' Not to glamorous but often how many feel. The reality is just like Moses we have a 'Big Dream' inside of us. This is given to us by God. Often all you know is a small deposit or seed of this dream (calling, passion, gift, talent, ministry, etc.) yet if you will trust that God did uniquely form your for a purpose then you to can begin your escape from Ordinary.

A great Harvest Weekend!

Last weekend was a great weekend. Saturday we had our Harvest Fest with games and food for our community. We was so blessed to see over 100 visitors from our community come out to enjoy the festivities. Door Prizes were given away and a hayride completed the evening. It was a great day. We were so blessed for each one that got to come out to enjoy the evening.
On Sunday Morning we had our Children's Day. We had a guest ministry team, Kingdom Kids with Pastor Zack. The ministered with puppets, videos, games, and much more. Both young and old enjoyed the day. At the end 7 kids and 1 adult came forward to pray the prayer of salvation. What a blessed day it turned out to be! Praise God. We finished the morning with several great door prizes (bikes, DVD player with screens for the car, iPod, and a firepit).

Sunday night the church had a Fall Fellowship were each one enjoyed games and food. It was a nice relaxing evening with our church family.

We Praise God for the great weekend!

Catching UP


It has been several weeks since our last update. We do apologize. Real quick we will get you caught up. This week we heard about how to better 'SERVE Others!' To check out more please watch the service (TheLeesburgChurch.org- follow the links to UStream) or read Pastor Josh's blog at http://joshua-lynn.blogspot.com/.

We have been studying Spiritual Gifts and how they make us work as a team better within the Church. It is amazing to know that it takes all the gifts to make the church function 'Healthy' and none are more important than another.
The Outreach Team has been working hard to prepare for this year's Harvest Fest. It is this Saturday from 4 - 7 PM. We pray that God would bless many but specifically we desire to serve others. We are here to serve our community as Christ would do. We desire to glorify Christ in all we do!
