Good Morning RezDowntowners!
What a great week few weeks it has been at Resurrection Downtown. With 65 kids in Vacation Bible Camp last week and then another 60 at Basketball Camp this week, it has been a whirlwind couple of weeks to say the least. Seeing all of the new life and energy within the youngest members of this church has been just short of amazing. And what’s more amazing is that so many of you made this possible. Whether by prayer, volunteering or even donating the funds for our kids to participate, you allowed God to use you to make for a great experience of God for a whole bunch of kiddos. For many of our kids, these days will become very special memories that will last throughout their lifetime, which, in turn, helps them understand who God is and what church is all about! Please know how grateful the staff and I are for everything you’ve done to make these two special events happen in the heart of our city! I also want to offer a special word of thanks to Kris Drummond, our Director of Children’s Ministry, for leading and coordinating two of the best week’s we’ve had in the life of our church!
This week, I am excited to return to Resurrection Downtown after our four-week sermon series on W*RK! I have missed being downtown with all of you, but I’m looking forward to seeing you all this weekend in worship. This weekend in worship Pastor Adam will be preaching a message about leading beyond the walls of the church. He’ll be casting vision and reminding us about Resurrection’s story, including our mission and vision! It is going to be a great weekend in worship and I’m excited to spend it with you at Resurrection Downtown.
In the meantime, here are some ways to connect to the life of the church:
