It seems like forever since we updated you with how things are going here in Katy. My last post was at the beginning of the summer and so much has happened since then.
Our family took a couple of weeks of vacation this summer which was great and much needed time to get away from the business of planting/launching a campus. We were able to see both sides of our family traveling to Oklahoma and the panhandle of Texas. We also were blessed to get to spend a week at One Way Camp. I was the speaker and the family got to tag along. This is a high school summer camp in the Palo Duro Canyon Basin. IT is where Kim and I met and the boys have been raised. There were over 600 campers and about three hundred students accepted Jesus or re affirmed their commitment to Him as we talked about Lordship and covenant. It was great!
Grace Fellowship North is moving steadily along and God is moving. Summer is always a challenge especially for smaller bodies like we are as so many people are out of town. This summer was no exception. July was abysmal but good for our people to get to rest. Now School is starting we are getting back into the swing of things and looking forward to seeing what God has in store for us.
One area of prayer would be our pursuit of more permanence. We are looking to lease some space that would be dedicated for Grace North that could be used whenever we want. Right now we are still setting up and tearing down in a school and only have access on Sundays. We feel, after much study and consulting, like we have hit a sealing on our growth potential for this area in transitory space.
Pray that God would lead us to the right space that would communicate to the community that we are here to stay and that it would become a home for us!
Love you all!
Jeff, Kim, Max, Joshua and Tate
