What an amazing morning!!

Wow! That's all I have to say! Okay, I'll explain a little bit! :-) This morning was our first morning in our new building. You could just feel the excitement in the air as soon as you came in the front doors! The lobby was full of families enjoying the free refreshments provided by the cafe' and the preschool wing was buzzing with tons of little kids! The worship service was wonderful and Jarod and the praise team did a great job leading us in worship! Jarod put a video together of Northside's journey from its beginning till now accompanied by Chris Rice's version of 'Great is thy Faithfulness.' It is so clear that God's hand has been in this whole journey for this church, and we are honored to be a part of it! There was a baptism in each service and many moments to make you just pause and praise God. As Jarod said so well this morning and as I've tried to say too is that it's not about the building, but it's about what God can do using the building as a tool to reach many! Both services were pretty full- Jarod guesses we may have been near 1,000 people this morning. I can't put into words this morning... it was a great morning!
I'm going to go up to the church tomorrow and take pictures of the inside so you can see what it looks like! Here's a couple more of the outside of the church after they put the logo on.
