Big Weekend At LifeGate

Hey everyone, we are on the verge of our biggest weekend EVER at LifeGate. As everyone should know by now, Sunday is our Grand Opening service in our new home, Veteran's Park Elementary School. There is a ton of stuff going on around the Grand Opening that I wanted to make everyone aware of.

1. Final Door Hanger Push - We had a great team effort last Saturday, getting the word out to over 5,000 homes about our Grand Opening. Through the week we've had small teams working to get out several thousand more door hangers. Friday and Saturday are our last opportunities to really get the word out. We want to maximize this moment to reach as many people as possible. If you have some time either Friday or Saturday morning and would like to help, please call 699-0686 or send a message to Pastor Ashley and let us know.

2. Friday Night Set-up - 6:00 pm at the school. If you're free, come give us a hand for 30 minutes.

3. Prayer - We will be setting aside 30 minutes at 7:00 pm on Friday to gather in the auditorium at VPE and pray for this weekends service. We're asking Jesus to show up in a big way on Sunday to change people's lives and give them a fresh start. For that to happen we need a supernatural breakthrough, the kind that only comes through prayer. If you can't make it to the school, take some time Friday and Saturday and pray specifically for Sunday's service.

4. THE BIG DAY - Sunday is our Grand Opening. We're kicking off a series called Fresh Start which will be geared especially towards people who have never been in church or have been out of church for a while. Please use our Facebook event invite or our website e-mail invite to get the word out to your friends. Our door hanger campaign will draw some people, but the vast majority of people come to church because they receive a personal invite from a friend or family. We're counting on you to help us pack the place out for this big day.

I'm excited to see all the cool stuff God is going to do this weekend. I encourage you to jump in and be a part of what is going to be a pivotal moment in the life of our church.
