Emmaus Road Church 1st Preview

This last Sunday we had our first preview worship gathering at our new time and location: 11 a.m. @ 2602 Nebraska Ave. We had 31 gather with us and two responses to begin following Christ! To the right is a picture of our new meeting space.

God has been so good getting us to this point. Although at times it's been a very difficult 2 years, God's given us just enough for each day--just enough to keep pressing on. Two of the most recent have been significant donations to ERC: one covering the rent of our new location for the upcoming year, the other a gift to be used as needed. Another has been the presence of two new families who have felt called to join the work in significant ways. All of these are reminders to me that God's in this thing, and it's His to grow and do with as He will.

Many thanks to you all who are praying.

This is an answer to pray. Thank God! I am also praying that you will be effective at equipping these for ministry. That is super awesome that you are close to the University. This will allow interactions and friendship building with the students!
