August news

On August 5th, we had another great worship (our final "Practice Worship") @ Clearview Cinemas in HQP. Again, a wonderful worship experience. We began with a group prayer with Pastor Dean Bracewell and some of the members of Inglesia Alianza, and shared some wonderful fellowship together. Then, we went to our "Theater 7" for worship. What a blessing it has been to have our sister-in-law, Soni Riley, on worship team. A lot of members of our family were also in attendance- hope to see more of them in future weeks and months (Pray for this!) Then, a young man named Josh Cascio shared a brief testimony about his ministry. He just completed his certification process as a personal trainer, and has a ministry called, "One True Power" (check it out at www.onetruepower.com), and we prayed for him. Then, we learned more about Moses and his leadership of the people of Israel in the Exodus, in a message from Exodus 18, entitled, "People who Share the Load" (message attached). We learned about Moses and the wise counsel of his Father-in-Law, Jethro, to multiply his effectiveness by multiplying his leadership and releasing them to do ministry among the people. That is what we also hope to do at "The Well"- train and equip and "release" our people to do ministry among people in their spheres of influence. Continue to pray for us and for all the leadership at "The Well" as we prepare our people for our "launch" in September.

ALSO, on Sunday afternoons during August and early September (1:00PM at Bill's Luncheonette in Ironia) we will be continuing our training in one-to-one discipleship, using the First Steps material. This material will equip us to prepare us for discipleship in one to one relationship as we prepare to launch in the early fall, and receive new people into the fold. It is interesting to see how the Lord is preparing us to do various Bible studies in places other than church buildings- diners, luncheonettes, places of work, etc. Pray that we will be successful in preparing our people to disciple new people that we will meet.
