Monday reflections

Mother's Day 2007 at CLC was a blast! Besides the energy from that amazing choir/praise team that kicked off the service, and the even-more-incredible energy from the Wildfire dancers that closed the service, I thought my wife hit it completely out of the park! Chris really gave us all a needed-challenge to start a new habit of celebrating regularly, even the little 'wins' we experience every week.

So I'm starting today - by celebrating the wonderful woman He's given me to experience life with; the terrific family He's given us (including a new addition this weekend); the amazing people that I get to work with on our CLC staff; and, last but certainly not least, the wonderful folks who make up this church family - YOU are the reason that Chris and I have often said, this is where we'd go to church if we lived in the south suburbs!

All in all, it was a great day, with many new visitors, overall attendance of over 1,500 for the weekend, and how 'bout that video tribute to mothers?

You heard it hear first: you don't want to miss this coming weekend when we close the 'Pleroma' series with a pointed message about what it's all about. Invite a friend to join you!
