Up Next

What an awesome start back to Connect Groups this past week! We had two new couples join us and we started an amazing book study. Super excited about this "semester" of Connect Groups.


Next week - on Tuesday - we will be meeting at the church for our service opportunity to assembly-line-it and stuff the Turning Point bottles. The bottles have proven very resourceful at local gyms in getting the word out who Turning Point is, and obviously, where we are. The point isn't to advertise Turning Point for the sake of Turning Point, but to let people in our area who, based on research, don't know what church is or what it's about. And so we tell them about our church so that they can walk through our doors and we can point them to Christ. It's always about introducing them to Jesus!


Our goal is to have opportunities to serve that are family friendly so child care isn't required on a weekly basis for everyone. Plus, it allows us to schedule time to serve our church. For the time being, we might be serving in different ways at the church because we're still in our infancy and there is much work to be done. We have the ability and it offers family flexibility. Obviously, we would love to hear your ideas for serving opportunities - to help friends, family, co-workers or the community! 


THIS SUNDAY - is Next Steps 101. Come at 6pm for the "class"...it's your next step to joining as a member at Turning Point Church. You don't have to commit to 101, 201 and 301 all at one time. But make the first step of joining us on mission in Lexington - it would be awesome if you wanted to let myself (Next Steps Champion), Alex or Josh that you're coming. But if you can't give advance notice, don't let that stop you! Still come on Sunday - coffee and snacks. Child care is provided.



Finally, we're wrapping up on the series on Sunday mornings about Nehemiah and being a world changer. I have really enjoyed learning about Nehemiah and how he handled his God given opportunity to change his world. Very challenging!
