AND A GREAT RESURRECTION DAY WAS HAD
AT DEER FLAT…
My Dear Friends,
I have two really important things to share with you, so I’ll get
right to it…
#1. WE HAD AN OUTSTANDING EASTER WEEKEND AT
DEER FLAT – Between Good Friday and the end of the morning Sunday, we
had over 2300 people attend events! I
think you know that I’m not a big numbers guy, but you guys OUT DID YOURSELVES inviting
friends! Saturday at the Kids Egg-stravaganza
we had a HUGE turnout of children, parents and grandparents – well over
500! I had a ball with your kids! The musical presentation was FABULOUS! Julie and her team knocked it
out of the park! The place rocked and the kids heard the story of Jesus like
never before. Then, Sunday – WOW! The
Lord’s House was filled twice. Over 1400
people showed up! And, we had
·
First
Time Commitments to Christ
·
Renewed
Commitments to Christ
·
Significant
Spiritual Business transacted
·
A
tremendous amount of prayer requests shared
·
And many
new families and friends - YEA GOD!
None of this would have been
possible WITHOUT OUR AMAZING,
UNBEATABLE, TREMENDOUS VOLUNTEERS! You
guys are the BEST! We have so much to thank God for. He’s AWESOME!
#2. A CALL TO PRAY AND FAST – APRIL 4th-8th,
6-8 pm
I’m asking ALL DEER FLAT PEOPLE to commit to pray and fast next week. We need some miracles to happen for a number
of our people. The prayer requests from this past Sunday alone are heavy with
impossibilities, but as I read through all of them, I found nothing that God
can’t do! So, it’s simple:
·
Attend a
prayer time any evening between 6-8 pm in the Sanctuary
·
Bring a
friend or neighbor who needs prayer
·
One of
our Staff will be there each evening facilitating our prayer time
·
If you
love to pray, come and pray for those who need prayer
·
If you
need a miracle, come believing and we’ll join you in prayer
·
Let’s
“go without” (fast) as a way of saying, “Lord, I want to see an answer to
prayer more than I want to eat, more than I want anything else.”
·
Why not
bring your Life Group/Small Group for an evening as prayer support?
·
Need
prayer for healing? Come and let us pray over you
Let’s believe God for
breakthroughs, answers to prayer like we only read about in the Bible, and
allow God’s Spirit to refresh our spirits!
I can’t wait to see you this
Sunday. You already know we’ve got a great day in store. A brand new series: “Little
Known Stories In The Bible.” Come expecting!
Loving You and Him,
Pastor D
By The Way – Let me encourage
any of you who are serving or are interested in serving in a Leadership position
at Deer Flat - whether it be as a LIFE Group Leader, Sunday Class Teacher/Leader,
Board Member, Support Group Leader, etc. – I encourage you to attend the Leadership
Development Classes coming up on April 10, 17 & 24 from 3-5 pm at City
Pointe. This is a wonderful program that will help you obtain a better
understanding of who we are as Deer Flat and will also give you great tools to
use in your ministry.
