Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad

1.  I woke up at 4 AM this morning and lingered around my home for a good 3 hours before I departed for the movie theatre. I arrived at 7:20 AM, and that still wasn’t early enough to beat Anne J. to the main lobby !

2.  Happy Anniversary Anne J. !  It was one year ago today that you asked me if I ever considered serving The Lord at Life Pointe Church. I responded that I had been thinking about it for a few weeks. Anne J. responded, ‘Well then let’s do something about it,’ and she put me to work as an inside usher with Marcela J. On that day I officially became a proud member of the Hospitality Team, and the rest is history on God’s fantastic journey !

3.  Gabriel and I made a fantastic team working the first shift manning the ‘Welcome & Information Center’. Venus was sparkling in her fresh new role as ‘Lobby Center Manager / Roamer’. Lisa and Luciana totally ruled the ‘Kids’ Life Registration Table’ as usual. Hattie was tough as nails as the ‘Kids’ Life Security Officer’. Everyone on the Hospitality Team should be proud of themselves for carrying out their duties in a most professional manner. This is how we serve God at the L.P.C. !

4.  A bunch of our first-time guests from Easter Sunday last week became second-time guests this week. That was so cool to see. It’s all about coming together corporately to praise and worship God, and Life Pointe Church is a wonderful place to do so. We’re hoping that our second-time guests become regular attenders every week, and that our regular attenders eventually become members of their church. Welcome to your family. This is how we roll – not just on Sunday mornings, but 24-7. We are the church !

5.  Pastor Travis continued our ‘Simply Jesus’ message series this week which runs through the entire month of April. He spoke on Jesus who was sent from Heaven to Earth on a mission by God the Father. Jesus came as the Prophet, the Priest, and the King. Jesus is alive today, as he sits at the right-hand of the Father. Jesus created everything that we possess; therefore, it all belongs to Him. Pastor Travis asked us to stand up if we needed Jesus to help us see Him as either our Prophet, our Priest, or our King. Nearly everyone stood up. For me personally I stood up because I need Jesus to help me see Him as my Priest. 35 years ago I was taught in Catholic School that the Priest of our church stood between me and Jesus. In reality Jesus Himself is our Priest. No one stands between us and Him.
