Good morning Lord Jesus, you know where I need healed. So heal me this morning to use me completely for your glory today.
Last week we typed out and sent out invitations to all our neighbors inviting them to come to our house on Saturday for our neighborhood Halloween party. We opened our yard and home up and hosted our neighbors to come, have fun, connect, and share life together. Next week we want to invite our neighbors who want to come back to our home again next Wednesday Nov. 11th for another meal and gathering.
Here is our invitation for this gathering:
We Hope You Had A Happy Halloween!
We Love, care for, and wanted to bless our neighbors at Halloween because Jesus loves, cares for, and blesses us! Yep, we love Jesus, however we are not “weird” about it. We would love to invite you back to our home again to share a meal, connect, share our stories, share our faith, and be neighbors!
Your Invited Again!
When: Wednesday November 10th, 6:30pm-8:30pm
Where: Gary and Nancy Liederbach’s home 102 Champions Green Drive. Madison, Al
Who: All are welcomed, young-old; single-married; or any religious background. It is our story’s we want to connect.
What: Casual, get to know each other, laugh, eat, connect, share, pray
An RSVP would be helpful if you plan on coming so we can prepare for you! Can’t make Wendesday however you still would like to connect at a future dinner, or want more information, please contact us as well with your info and we will keep you connected.
Maybe you have been hurt by the church somehow in the past…sorry.
Maybe you do not understand “Church”…that’s understandable!
Maybe you don’t know or understand Jesus…that’s ok!
But you still may want to:
*Be accepted, connect with people, meet neighbors and form friendships.
*Grow with God and get to know Jesus.
*Make a difference and serve your community with others and impact poverty and injustice.
Maybe a simple church gathering in a home is what you are looking for. Where we can build real connections with our neighbors and really care for each other, a family of faith, that meets in neighborhoods and actually cares about its neighbors.
It may not look anything like you heard or pictured “church” should be like, but it feels more like it than ever!
My family, I am asking that you pray those who do not know Jesus and/or are hungry for Jesus come to our home. If you live near our house of course you are welcomed to come. Better still, if you have a home or an apartment. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to encourage and show you how to open your home and invite your neighbors over to share your life and stories of faith with them, in Jesus name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you my friends!
