An Anniversary Bash

We started holding public meetings in Pereira on the first Sunday of June in 2002.  That first Sunday we had our family (six of us at the time) and one other family – of three at that time.  Since then the Lord has blessed us and many have joined us in worshiping and studying God’s word.  Many of those have moved on to other cities and other congregations, but the Lord has preserved a remnant here and in the past year has blessed and increased the number of His people here.  Lately we’ve been stretching the folks a bit, encouraging them to move past their “comfort zone” to seek what the Lord is wanting to do through their life.  But I digress.  On June 1st, 2008 we had our annual “Anniversary Bash” This year we held it here at the house and were joined by 39 people, including two new families.  For some of them it was the first time they experienced a “party” in which they didn’t have to drink to have “fun”.  What a novelty to wake up the next day and remember what all happened and to not have a hangover… :)
