Sunday AfterThoughts 11-25

Well we wrapped up our Thank:Giving Mini Series today. It was actually far better than I was expecting. It was a last minute sort of transitional series from "IT" into our upcoming christmas series called "Believe". But it was really good. I think a lot of people are talking about the two messages. These were the toughest Jeff has done yet, and most challenging because I think they were the most personal.

Due to some computer issues last week, I oppologize if you watch the service online, because last weeks service just went on saturday. This weeks service should be up by Tuesday.

We used a new drummer today who did a fabulous job. I am excited about Bryant and Brian, my two drummers. They do a great job. I am looking for to worship next week. I finally get to add to my worship team more musicians. We are adding another vocalist and a keyboardist. We will also be doing a neat set design with a minor flash back. Looking forward to that.

One of the reasons we exist as a church and the main reason is to show the community of Cheyenne that we are here for them and that we care. To show the love of God in a practical way. So this Christmas season we have adopted 4 moms from the local Life Choice pregnancy center, so that we can spoil them like crazy. Moms that have or are getting ready to make the right decision on keeping the life of their child. These moms are in great need and we are going to meet those needs. So if you are an elementer we have registered their names at Walmart and Target under first name "Element" Last name "Church" so that you will be able to see what some of their needs are and help us as a body to meet them. We are filling up cribs full of things that they need, (diapers, formula, oil changes on their cars, new tires, one months rent). This is what the church should be about. Finding the needs in the community and meeting them, whether they do or do not ever come to 1 service at Element Church. We want them to know the love of God in a practical way. We are all truely looking forward to this outreach towards these mothers.

Going to 2 services next week. Exciting and Frightning. We will be on such a time constraint in order to be out in time for movies. I know we will get it worked out but this first one will be interesting. The new service times are 9:00 and 10:30am. We encourage as many of you as possible to attend our 9:00am service to help fill it up since our 2nd service will tend to fill up faster.

Tommorow I will post numbers as far as attendance goes, not sure right now.
