LAST SUNDAY/ THIS SUNDAY

LAST SUNDAY we got seconds with Pastor Robert Morris and it was as good, if not better than the first helping. He spoke on the Principle of First. One of my favorite things he said was that God can't change, because God can't get better! YES!! You can listen to all the other great things he said here...http://www.newspring.cc/series/more/

We had 10 more people become Owners this week! Our Ownership class is the means to join NewSpring. We believe Members have rights and Owners have responsibilities. We are the Church and it's every owner's call to do the ministry of the Church. Our next class is June 12. You can sign up and get more information here...https://newspring.wufoo.com/forms/newspring-church-ownership-charleston//

THIS SUNDAY we wrap up the More series, and you do not want to miss what we have for you. If you are coming to Charleston for the Memorial Day weekend please let us know what campus you are from; we would love to meet you!

Also, we were blessed with the rare opportunity to leave things set up last week. So, we will not be setting up at 4 am as usual. We will, however, be loading out this week. If you have some time to hang out after the 11:15 service, please do so.

If you are in Charleston and your summer schedule allows for you to have extra time during the week, we would love to have you volunteer at the office. Please email charleston@newspring.cc for more information!

CAN'T WAIT FOR SUNDAY!!

LAST SUNDAY/ THIS SUNDAY

Let me start by saying sorry for not posting "LAST SUNDAY/ THIS SUNDAY" last week. To briefly catch you up Mother's Day was great. If we took your picture you can look at them here http://www.flickr.com/photos/newspringchurch/sets/72157626693730108/ Also if you missed the message Perry did on Mother's Day, it's incredible! Get a tissue and click this http://www.newspring.cc/series/more/ .

LAST SUNDAY was so good. At the end of our services I was ecstatic! We had seen 2 boys give their lives to Christ and another 13 people go public with their faith in baptism. It was a great Sunday. I knew that our attendance was really good in the first service, but I attended the second service and was not aware of our total attendance for the day yet. Already beaming from a fantastic day and an incredible message (http://www.newspring.cc/series/more/), I found out we had our largest attendance to date! It was the cherry on top for sure. I consistently fight the battle of making sure numbers don't determine whether or not Sunday is "good." So, for me it was great to be so excited about who God is and all that He had done before finding out it was also an amazing day in the attendance category. Numbers matter because they each represent a soul with eternity at stake, but it can't be the main reason for a Sunday being good or bad.

THIS SUNDAY we continue our series MORE for 2 MORE weeks (Sorry. . . had to)! We are going to be baptizing again and hearing a message you don't want to miss.

Our children in KidSpring will be continuing their study on the fruit of the Spirit. Ali and KidSpring staff, THANK YOU for what you do! You always do such a great job of teaching my kids the Bible. But, this series has taken things up a notch. To hear my four year old and two year old singing and talking about the fruit of the Spirit is blowing my mind!!

Sunday and Thursday we will be hosting our next Ownership classes. If you've been checking us out for a while and need to join, this class is your next step. If you want to know more about us as a church this class will also provide that information for you as well. Click this http://www.newspring.cc/nextsteps/commit/ to sign up and get more information!

Load-in is happening Saturday from 2-4pm. If you are available for all two hours or just thirty minutes, stop by and help make Sunday happen!!

CAN'T WAIT FOR SUNDAY!!

LAST SUNDAY/ THIS SUNDAY

LAST SUNDAY can be summed up by Perry's post from Tuesday...
"To say that this past Sunday’s service was awesome would simply be an understatement. I’ve honestly never seen so many people respond to an invitation like our church did this past weekend. The challenge to confess and repent of sin was so compelling that we actually had a guy in Charleston who watched the service online and literally became so overwhelmed with conviction that he got in his car and drove up to where we have church in Charleston and met with our campus pastor! I absolutely LOVE what Jesus is doing in our church right now!"

Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
Psalm 139:23-24

THIS SUNDAY it is Mother's Day!! We will honor the moms in attendance and will have a place for you to take pictures with your kids before and after services.

Also read this from Perry's blog to see what you can do Sunday to help the people of Alabama.
