sunday afterthoughts

Hey e: peeps and e: followers, here is the update from sunday.
Woke up at 5:30am in our NEW HOUSE. Yes Amber and I are official home owners. We are very excited and cheydan loves having a back yard now. We are in the process of painting and some small construction but it will be a very nice place for Amber and I to call home. I will post pics soon.

366 in service yesturday. I think we have maxed out our facility. We are really hoping that our 3rd service "e:coustic" will help us continue to reach more in the cheyenne area. 5 people gave their lives to Christ today. I just cant get enough of that. People are making the greatest decisions they will ever make in life and its so exciting to be a part of it.

We opened our new series HEROES: ordinary people living extraordinary lives. Very excited about this series. Jeff opened with the story of Esther. "Perhaps we were created for just such a time as this", I love that. Our theme song this month is "God of this city" by Chris Tomlin off the new Passion cd. It is the heart beat of Element Church. We truely believe that God is not finished with Cheyenne. There is no God like our God and Greater things have yet to come. Love it.

I had some fun with our set design this month. I will post pics next week. We all want to be the city Hero and God has called us to be heroes of the Kingdom. So I built 2 skycrapers and 2 basic building that had light shining through. and some chain link with traffic light to create a city feel. It was a lot of work but well worth it. We thought they turned out good.

Cheyenne Egg Drop is going to be huge. 2 weeks away, 25,000 eggs and a ton of kids. Thats how we roll. We meaning all of you have to promote this huge. We ordered 2000 rave cards. This sunday seriously grab a handfull of 50 if you can. Give them to your kids to hand out at school. Leave them everywhere. We want to rock cheyenne.

I loved our worship set this week. We have had the privelage of having Nathan join us on guitar which has added a lot to our sound. One MAJOR problem this week was at 5:45am I got a call from BRYANT our drummer that day and he informed me that he would not make it due to a search and rescue mission with the AF. I was freaking out. I told jeff when I got to the church "I have bad news" lol, but BRIAN our other drummer came out with out rehearsing and rocked the set. Way to go Brian. I was really excited about Bryant playing this week cause he was ON. He hasn't played for a few weeks, worked hard this week and then got called in. Total bummer.

Exciting times around here at Element. I am sorry for all of you who don't live in cheyenne and attend Element cause "God is doin it, God is doin a nu thang, YO..." lol
