Dear Beloved HPBC Family,
I am writing with a thankful heart.. During the month of October, You all showered Donna and I with much love and gifts. We are thankful everyday for God allowing us to lead you, His people. I am also grateful for the progress we have made in the last few months of our “Mission To M.A.R.S” Ministry Model. Additional Deacons have been voted into service, the elected Leadership Recruitment Team has met and we have begun the coaching process by meeting with our First Impressions Team. We all must be grateful for the critical elements God has established and given us, which make our mission possible. Now that our leadership team is beginning to move, we are in the recruitment phase of staffing our teams for lift off.
You Are the Fuel for Lift Off!
This is the most challenging initial phase, requiring immense effort and momentum to get our teams and ministries operational and effective. Just as a rocket requires tremendous effort and fuel to overcome gravity and inertia at launch, our church needs fuel to get off the ground. Your participation, dedication, and willingness to "do the work defines this fuel" according to your giftedness. As we begin this mission, let your thankfulness for what God has established and given find expression in active service. Please pray and search your heart for where God is leading you to join us on our mission to M.A.R.S.! - Pastor James
