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!

We are living a dream!
