What will Elevation value?
We are so excited about the things that God is doing already in Elevation Community Church that we are already beginning to celebrate the wins in the areas that we see are of value to this church. But for you are to be able to celebrate along with us I want you to see the things that we feel that God has shown us are important and that we are to value.
EvErything is covered in prayer (Before, During, & After)
Everyone’s weLcome, nobody’s perfect, anything is possible
LivE worship & relevant biblical teaching are a catalyst for life change
Everyone is inValuable & irreplaceable in community
SacrificiAl living means you cannot out give or out do God
Together we have fun while serving our communitites
EverythIng is an experiment (Change is constant)
EveryOne needs to grow (leadership development)
ONe church, many locations (Multi-site)
Over the next couple of days, weeks, and months we are going to take the time to go through each one of the areas of values so that everyone can understand how God has put this together. I do want to thank the different leaders that have had a hand in all of the preparation that goes into what we have here now. Pete Wilson, Scott Hodge, Mark Batterson, Ken Jensen, Tad Grandstaff, and Thom Ranier. With out the phone conversations, the talks, the books, and encouragement we would not be at the place we are today as we move closer and closer to launching Elevation Community Church.
Hey buddy,
Love your heart, love your family, love your planning, HATE that you’re leaving!! It really is strange b/c i truly thot you guys would be here “forever” (ok, maybe at least 5 yrs) and that we could grow our friendship and watch your kids grow and…well you know.
But we love you and pray for you daily and KNOW that God is leading you and that your success with be His success!!!
(Hey, is there any good skiing close to you??)
