At Village this week we will be discussing how you can identify your unique style for reaching people for Jesus - a style that is both effective and consistent with the personality God has given you.

Drew Hage update Drew is better and coming home
Many of you have known that Drew was very sick with the Swine Flu. We have been very concerned for him. Drew and I spent an hour on the phone last week. It was so good to hear from him! He was a very sick man for two weeks with not only the Swine Flu but also other viruses that hit him when his immune system was weak. But he has recovered and we are praising the Lord! Drew is coming home early this week. He'll be at our planning meeting on Saturday. Drew is the acting Executive Director at Great Oaks and a tremendous blessing to our new congregation.
