Join us for Easter!

easter-attendance.JPGOkay, so I’ve gotta brag on Community a little bit… I just received this graph from our finance director David Girdwood, and I am so amazed at what God has done through the years through the people of this church!!  The graph at the right shows the Easter attendance each year at Community throughout our 19 years of existence…. What will the attendance be this year?!  I can’t wait to find out!!

And if you are out there, no matter what church community you belong to, and you’re debating about whether or not to invite that person or family to church you have been praying for…

Remember the first time you came to church….

Remember the first time you came to small group…

Remember the first time you realized that Someone cares about you unconditionally and sacrificed His life so that you might have life…  

Make the ask.  Make it again if you’ve already made it!  Say yes to praying fervantly that God’s transforming power will transform and soften the hearts of those who have not yet found their way back to Him… Say yes to setting aside your own fears and insecurities and opening up yourself to the promptings of God’s Spirit to move you to take a risk with someone…. Say yes to being generous with your time, your resources, your whole self… so that someone else might find their way back to God.  Have a wonderful Easter, everyone!  Can’t wait to celebrate together this weekend!

Hey Julie. My name is Casey Graham. I work at Mountain Lake Church in Cumming, GA. I love your site and would love to talk sometime about generosity. That is my favorite subject. Lets talk about creating some networks of generous people, churches, and organizations…
