A new video
March 2, 2010 by Ben Griffin
I was asked by our denomination to shoot a short video on what it’s like to be a mission church 2 1/2 years after launch. Thought I’d share.

Kids Against Hunger
February 15, 2010 by Ben Griffin
I missed you all this last weekend. Had a beautiful and much needed daddy weekend. But, I’ll warn you I woke up hungry to preach on Sunday and am already looking forward to next week. We are entering into some awesome parts of Romans.
To the real reason for this post. This last weekend our friend Jenny invited us to serve for a couple hours with a ministry called Kids Against Hunger. As a parent it is really hard to find missional things that the entire family could be a part of. So, this was such a gift. My 4 year old daughter was helping to load bags of food while my hair net clad boys filled them, weighed them and passed them down.
It was an awesome experience. So much so that I’m thinking that this could be a great thing for our church to get involved with on our own. Praying on that. Potentially more to come at a later date.

Voting is now closed.
New Tunes To Listen For
January 15, 2010 by Brian Smith
Hey all, I’m gonna try and shoot a few new tunes to you all each week. Some of these might be stuff we have cookin’ on the back burner for some future Sunday or it could be a few tracks I have been listening to on repeat over the last week. Whatever the case may be, fire up the audio and keep it in the background while you go about your things and let me know what you think or talk about some of the stuff you have been listening to.
Enjoy!
Tutoring @ the Shelter
We are looking to recruit some tutors for “homework help” at the Women’s shelter….no PhD or teaching degree required; just a little bit of patience, creativity (if all else fails, use your “phone-a-friend”) and a desire to make a difference in the life of a child!
The staff and families at the shelter have been looking for some additional help with homework for some time now, as it has been stretching the staff there a bit thin. Based on the interest level so far, we are hoping to kick things off in February.
The goal is a monthly rotation that offers 2 tutors each Tues from 3-4:00 and Wed from 5-6:00. We are asking for a committment of at least one night/month, and in an effort to provide consistency for the kids, would love to have a few of us there 2 or more evenings/month.
If interested in homework help, please contact Amber Condon using the form below letting her know these things:
- Do you prefer Tuesday from 3-4:00 or Wednesday from 5-6:00?
- Is there a particular week of the month that works best for you?
- When are you available to start?
- How many days/month you would like to help out?
And any other feedback you may have.
Thanks much!
Amber
