Good Stuff

There is some really great stuff going on at Capstone. Here’s an update --- all written to give God glory!
  • We have 11 couples headed to Ridgecrest tomorrow for a big marriage conference. It should be great.
  • January’s Saturday Servants project was amazing. We had about 20 folks come serve every Saturday and about 40 on the last Saturday of the month. Once again, we see Capstone’s passion for serving and making a difference in the community.
  • We have 17 people going to Cuba in six weeks on our third mission trip to the island in the past year. Six are teenagers who are spending their spring break on mission. Isn’t that awesome?
  • "Give It Away" has been so great. What a way to start the New Year --- giving!!!
  • This Sunday, we’re beginning a new series called “Need a Miracle?” We’re going to look at the miracles of Jesus and look for some in our own lives. I am really excited about it because, quite frankly, I need some miracles. I bet you do as well in some area of your life. The first miracle this week is one of my favorites. Join us to find out what it is!
  • I love the music our band is bringing for worship each week. They have grown so much over the past six months! In the last year, we’ve gone from performing to worshiping and it has made such a huge difference in our church and what happens on Sunday mornings.
  • Our student group is amazing --- everybody is talking World Changers and that makes me excited!
  • This past Saturday, a HUGE crowd of volunteers came out at 8:30 am (amazing!!!) to be appreciated and get focused for the new year. Our folks are amazingly committed to the vision of Capstone and that is incredibly encouraging.
  • We are all about “Loving people into the abundant life that comes through a relationship with Jesus Christ.”

I am so glad to be a part of this amazing church!
