It' s been a year since we started The Quest. Febraury 17, 2008 was our first worship service. It was completely cool and a whirlwind in getting going. I am pretty sure that we broke every rule when it comes to starting a new church. Every book that is out there on "church-planting" told us we were starting out wrong. However, a year later....here we are!
So, we are celebrating our birthday this week. We decided that our celebration would look like what we do best. We brought gifts. We brought gift cards, money, and groceries and hit the Shipp Street community. We prayed and then went to homes to say, "Happy Birthday!" That is how we do it.....we love and serve.
One story sticks out. A gift card was given to one guy and he said ( i paraphrase), "I know you guys. You do so much in our neighborhood. What can I do for you?"
What we are doing is making a difference. The loving and serving in the name of Jesus is making a difference. Keep it up. Because if we aren't loving and serving our community, what is a church there for?
