Where does the time go?

WOW! Can you believe it is almost April? Almost nothing, tomorrow is April 1st! Oh man, where has the time gone? In the last week we've seen 70 degree weather, followed by a blizzard that literally shut Amarillo and the Panhandle down, followed by 70 degree weather again. Only in the Texas Panhandle... gotta love it!



Now, I know historically Life Groups have stopped meeting the end of April and resumed in September. However, I'd like to challenge history if I could. In case you haven't noticed the church is growing. In fact, last Sunday Rochelle and I had to make our own row in the back and then add more chairs to it for others to join us... and we're there early! What a wonderful problem to have. We've challenged our Life Group to move up front to leave room for guests to sit closer to the back since it is usually more comfortable for them.



With this wonderful growth God is blessing FNC with comes incredible opportunities to build new relationships and invite people into out Life Groups. However, if we invite them and then break for 4 months chances are we will lose them. So, I am encouraging Life Groups to break for May and its crazy schedule, if needed, and then resume in June. I know vacations and other obligations will cause scheduling changes, but let's build relationships and help our new FNC family members find a place to land and get involved.



Remember, as Life Group leaders we are called to build relationships. Take a look around this Sunday and see who you could invite and encourage to join you and your Life Group. It's all about relationships... our relationship with God in Jesus - lived out in our relationship with others.



God bless,
