Sunday morning in 'Lomas del Valle' (hills of the valley...? )

It was a great Sunday morning at the church on the dumpsite. I'm reminded that Pastor/Author Erwin McManus of the well known Mosaic Church in LA once built a mission church on a dumpsite near downtown Dallas................. so these folks are in good company :-)

And Pastor Griff never disappoints........ he preached on Mephibosheth (say that 10 times real fast) in 2 Samuel 9. I actually learned a few things myself. We saw a few professions of faith.

But I guess the most uplifting thing for me was the realization that these people took an idea plus nothing plus God and built a faith community in a pretty dark place. I think there's a big lesson there for us short-sighted Americans who sometimes want everything to be just perfect before we launch out on faith to follow the Lord's leading.............. Father give us faith like that ! ......................... I'm just sayin....












And while it might appear that Griff is providing the special music with Seminary student Cynthia as his backup vocalist, he is not. She is actually doing a fabulous job translating. After further discussion, we all agreed that Griff should leave the special music to Kirt Henderson.
