For me, a flyer on my door was as good as God writing in the sky “You Belong at the Commons”. When I met the folks who were organizing the church, I saw an incredible love among them and a true passion for the Lord within them. When I learned about the church’s mission, that was the sprinkles on the frosting for me. I knew I wanted to be a part and that this was a place where I’d FINALLY feel like I was home.
I love the people in this church. They have become my family. I also love Steve’s ministry. There are few pastors who are able to both minister and preach. They are good at one but seldom good at both. Steve has the gift of compassion and ministry but he also challenges me each and every time he teaches. What a win-win for The Commons.
My prayer for our church is that we continue to seek the Lord FIRST in all that we do. Also, now that we are out of our honeymoon period, I pray that we continue to love one another with fierceness, protectiveness and forgiveness. Lastly, I pray that we keep our arms outstretches and the windows of our hearts open as searching souls find us and consider joining the exciting things God is doing through The Commons.
