Yesterday was our first Friend's Day at New Columbia (at least since we have been pastoring here). What an exciting day it was. For the past few weeks we have been announcing and encouraging people to invite friends to come join us for our worship service. And guess what? They did. We had 42 visitors in our morning worship. It was exciting. We are trusting God to help us make every in-road we can so we can do our best to help show each one the love of Christ. I spoke from the text, "behold I stand at the door and knock". Reminding people that God knocks because He is interested in relationships. He knocks on the the door concerning our relationship with our Companions, the Church and with Christ. There were different ones who raised their hand for prayer, so if you think of it, pray that God would continue to be faithful and give us the opportunity to follow up and press the issue a little deeper. Last evening we had our Commission Service for Michael and Crystal Mason. They leave this week to serve in Mexico. They served our church in the music department for nearly four years. They were a great asset to our church. God is good and we are grateful for the wonderful day He gave us yesterday.
