Nice welcome
Just got this post from our neighbors at Granger Community Church. They've raised the bar for creative ministry and reached thousands of people in Michiana over the last 20 years, and blessed us at CLC though various conferences and seminars. In fact, one of the things I most appreciate about Pastors Mark Beeson and Tim Stevens and their whole team is their willingness to share what they've learned with those of us who are still learning.
It's definitely a little intimidating to be in the shadow of such a great ministry, but as Tim says in his post, it's going to take a lot of different churches to reach a lot of different people, and we're excited about the opportunity to reach some of them starting this Sunday, March 2!
CLCers, it's not too late to join your prayers with mine for hundreds of people to respond to our invitations this Sunday.

Hi Pastor Jerry!
I went to the posting and there are some really positive things being said about the South Bend Launch from the Pastors of Granger! Ken and I visited their campus for a conference and yes the campus is massive but so are the hearts of the people serving there. It's all about reaching people and connecting them to the Lord -- wherever we are!!

Speaking as one of the Pastor's wives from GCC, you need to know we are always thrilled to hear about churches that are starting in our area. Why wouldn't we be? It's all about Jesus and his kingdom.
We are just regular people who love a great, great God. Our hopes and dreams for this community are that multitudes would come to Jesus, and I know that will not happen through one church alone. I am personally so grateful for your ministry. God's best to you!

Thanks, Michelle. I couldn't agree more - but it's great to hear it from fellow believers who know we're not in competition w/each other!
By the way, I had the chance to hear your hubby at a Granger Conf. a few years ago, and I LOVE his passion! Blessings to you & your family and all of GCC!
