Really Excited....

Last November (2011) we started visiting another church. It is a non-traditional church. The church we previously attended (for 16 yrs) was a traditional church. So all this was new to us. We love the people at our previous church and still keep in contact with them. Our boys still attend Awana on Wednesday. Lysa & I were very involved in Awana too ....  but mainly in the liives of the K-2nd graders. I still see the children on Wednesdays and Lysa still helps from time to time....

anyway....   back to our new church...

Last year.... it was amazing to see how they reached out....   how they wanted to love the world, how they looked for ways to help others...  how they were the hands and feet of Jesus. For the month of December they participated in Advent Conspiracy. It was amazing. But through this past year... I have seen them continue to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

A few weeks ago ... our pastor announced WE would again be participating in Advent Conspiracy!

So....   THIS year they WE are participating in Advent Conspiracy! Can you tell I am excited!

I love this .... giving back....


worship fully, spending less, give more, love all.....

I will be sharing with you all month.....   how our church is reaching out! How we are trying to find new ways to do Christmas....  as I was reading to the kids today .... I came across this quote.

Your level of JOY this Christmas is directly related to what it is you seek...
Your level of JOY this Christmas is directly related to where you look....
Your level of JOY this Christmas is directly related to what you give....
