We wondered last night as practice was taking place and sleet began to build up on the cars whether anyone would be in service today.....
but woke up this morning with better temperatures, no rain
AND 49 IN ATTENDANCE!
Our record was 35. We had three new people in the altar this morning with tears on their faces. I spoke about "The Broken Place." That is where God really comes to life. Some of those in attendance today are in the broken place, and God became very real to them.

Several new things happened today:
We had our first children's Sunday School class, but we have no pictures. :(

We had our first sign language song...
No Greater Love, given by Taqueria and Phylicia McClain as well as Lindsey and Kayleen Stephens. They did awesome! The presence of the Lord moved as they signed.

We had our first group song. Karla put together a ladies ensemble to sing, “Revelation song.” Wow! There were two new soloists in that song and Chad really showed out on the drums. There is a part of the song that says, “Flashes of lightning and rolls of thunder.” When they sang that, Chad did a deep roll that sounded like THUNDER! He shocked me! They practiced last night when I wasn't there, so it was so cool. The crowd was on their feet!
Excitement was in the air, the conviction of the Lord dealt with many hearts and we proclaimed the joy of the Easter story. It was a good day.
