As we quickly approach the close of 2009 COC Metro is finishing this year strong. We have been crazy busy the entire month with outreach events, toy drives, ladies' event, weekend worship, Christmas Eve prep work and one of the coolest baptismal celebration I have ever been a part of this past Sunday. Click on the link below to check it out.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?I am so proud of your 15 month old church. COC is accomplishing things that most churches twice to three times our size only dream of doing. We have always approached this ministry with the attitude that company is coming and acting like where we want to be rather than where we are. This attitude has caused us to go from a church of about 120 this time last year to now pushing 400 in worship each and every Sunday. We have seen 40 souls baptized this year, over 60 people giving their lives to Christ, delivering well over 500 toys this week to needy families in our communities (all of which were given through the generosity of the people of COC) and preparing for three incredible upcoming Christmas Eve Celebrations! Of course those of you who were a part of our "It's a Girl Thing" Ladies' event last Sunday know that it was just awesome. We had just over 115 ladies enjoying great fun, fellowship and of course hearing from Lisa Whelchel.
So as you see, we are not coasting into the Holidays. We are capitalizing on this most wonderful time of the year to continue to find ways to make His name more famous on the 380 Corridor. I challenge you to finish this year strong as well. Don't wait until January 1st to get busy for the Lord. There is no better time than the present to just jump in and join God in His incredible work.
