Couldn't help but share with all you clowns this email I received from the Jacob Family (Al, Joanne, Josh and Abigail are NB peeps). Reminds me of our vision to take church TO the people...
As we are walking in from the from the parking lot (this was the week we were at the Heldrich Hotel), we sort of walked with this other extended family grouping looking dressed as if they too were heading to church.
We were talking among ourselves and the word Liquid may have been uttered and then a young boy in the grouping said, as we parted ways with them entering the lovely Baptist church on the square, "look Mommy, those people are going to the OUTSIDE CHURCH."
What a joyful glimpse that our peeps are, in fact, taking church to the people and that we would have the blessing of being known as the OUTSIDE CHURCH.
Thanks guys for reminding us how great it is to be taking (outside:) church to the people!
