Today will go down as one of the greatest days in the histroy of Lifepoint. Today was our final day at Myrtle Grove Middle school. I knew it was going to be a powerful day when we called an audible a few weeks ago and began laying plans for today. Here are some of my thoughts.
- I couldn’t sleep much last night because I was too excited.
- I started balling like a baby before the service ever started. I was overwhelmed thinking about everything that God has done at this school.
- A friend walked up to me before the service and said that if it wasn’t for this place he and his wife wouldn’t be together. PRAISE GOD!
- God planted a powerful message into my heart a few weeks ago about Daniel.
- Big Idea: Take a Stand!
- I felt like my heart was going to beat out of my chest during the first service.
- My message was supposed to be 15 minutes…I think it was more like 25.
- The gym at Myrtle Grove was electric!
- We gave people who have chosen to follow Jesus the opportunity to get baptized and 60 people took a stand!
- I got soaked!
- I can’t think of a better way to end our run at the Middle School.
- God was definitely in the house today.
- I got to baptize homeless, spouses who are fighting for their marriage, a young lady who just got out of prison, my two aunts from Pennsylvania…it was amazing!
- Watching Daryl baptize his son Philip was awesome. I can’t wait to baptize my kids.
- Drew and the band did an incredible job creating an atmosphere of celebration during the worship.
- the first service ran 15 minutes long and the second was 25 minutes…oops.
- We have people sign the baptistery..take a look
- Believe it or not but it was sad saying goodbye to our custodian Sam. He’s been good to us.
- I want to say thanks to Jill Barbour, my assistant for helping purchase everything to make this baptism happen.
- I also want to thank all the dream team members who help point people to Jesus today!
- This is a big week for Lifepoint.
- We move to Ashley High School this Sunday!
- We are giving away FREE GAS near the High School on Saturday morning.
- We have a 30,000 piece mailer going out this week.
- This is the last week of the Daniel Fast. I have enjoyed it but I think I hear fajitas calling my name.
Pray big prayers this Week! Our God is Able!
Here’s a pic of me and Daryl just after the second service
We are living a dream!
[...] my good friends Jeff, Daryl, Drew, Brad, Tiffany and the Lifepoint Crew tore it up on their last day at Myrtle Grove [...]
Awesome job today man and thanks for allowing me to be apart of this! I can’t wait to see what God does next Sunday! This is just the beginning!
Where’s Daryl in that pic and how the heck did you get Reggie there?
i think your shoe left a puddle. Today was aaamazing.
Yesterday was so amazing I don’t even have words to describe it. Watching people lives change right in front of our eyes…Thank you Lifepoint
Jeff & Daryl,
I am amazed and proud of how the Lord is using the both of you.
Keep up the great work! Look forward to hearing news from the new location.
Jeff… DITTO all the above comments! Sunday was a day I will never forget! Several reason! My babies got baptized…. you will FOREVER be remembered for that if we all ever part ways, my parents were there, Jeff’s parents were there (& actually liked it, but thought music was too loud!) lol!, my ATHEIST/Agnostic friend was there AND wants to start coming to “keep trying it”! lol:) So it was one of my best days ever! Thanks to you & Lifepoint!!! Thank you for all you do & have done…. we look forward to moving to Ashley, and if Jill (or whoever) needs help with those 30,000 mailers going out please tell her to call me!
Love ya!
Lisa
