Growing pains...
No baby stays a baby forever.
Neither does a church.
If you've been attending THE WELL in recent weeks you'll have noticed things changing. New musicians, some lights, more people, more classrooms, more kids, more of everything.
We're grateful to be growing. Ultimately Jesus Christ builds His Church so, as part of that, we're just doing our best to keep it simple, humble, positive and relaxed.
That said, there are many ways in which you can help this 'baby' church as we, rapidly, approach 'toddlerhood'.
1) You can come early some Sunday (8:45am) and help us set up. This is a great way to connect with our key leaders and some of the faithful members who've been 'making it happen' since day one at THE WELL.
2) You can continue giving faithfully on a financial level. We have growing financial needs and every time we add a person or a family to our committed 'core' and they start obeying the Bible's instruction to give generously it, literally, makes a huge difference on the fiscal side of things. We're very grateful for your partnership so far. It's our hope that this continues to be an area of strength for THE WELL.
3) You can pray. You cannot underestimate the power of payer in terms of partnering with God in shaping the culture, vibe, and ethic of a new church. Please pray for THE WELL every time you think of it. Pray for God's mercy on us, pray He grows this church, filling it up with people who need to be encouraged because of Him and equipped to go into culture to encourage it with news of Jesus. Pray for all the new people who are going to join us, that THE WELL would be of service to them in Jesus name, for His fame, and their joy.
4) You can volunteer in our kids ministry. We're starting to really grow kid-wise. Drop us an email sometime and we'll connect you to the people who can get you serving with our young ones.
5) If you're media-savvy, we have several opportunities for service upcoming, so please let us know (on a Sunday) of your interest in this area and we'll be quick to plug you in.
Looking forward to continuing to walk this journey out with you.
Peace,
TW
