150

by Michael Davis on September 19, 2015

Three worship gatherings… 9AM, 11AM, and 5PM. That will be the NEW Worship Gathering schedule beginning Sunday, October 4th.

We’ve done three services in the past, specifically offering an additional evening gathering on Sundays at 5:30PM.  We stopped… and now we are starting it again. Why?

In short, we need more space on Sunday mornings. It’s that simple. We are doing a 3rd worship gathering on Sunday evenings in order to make more space for the men, women, students and children that God is entrusting to our care. Will we meet NEW people with a Sunday evening worship gathering? Absolutely! But, the bulk of our guests and visitors are coming on Sunday mornings. More specifically, those that are either exploring Christianity or new to Christianity are predominantly coming on Sunday mornings.

At 35 Olympia Ave., our capacity of how many people are allowed in the space at one time is 300… which means, each week we are beginning to spill over that capacity number in both worship gatherings.

GENESIS is committed to ‘Helping ALL people walk with God’ – that is our mission!  And one practical way we can practice our mission is to make sure that every person that wants to begin the journey of walking with God has a seat when we gather on Sunday.

If new people are predominantly coming to the 9AM and 11AM services, then what can we do to make sure they have a seat? What can we do to make sure they hear the Gospel?  Answer…

150!

We are asking for 150 people to leave their seats at the 9AM and 11AM, and make the change to the 5PM.  That’s a huge number! But, again, if new people are primarily coming to the morning services, then we need some seats for them.  We need some space so that we can share the love of God with them! We need about 150!

We realize that giving up your seat on Sunday morning is a big ask, but this is not something you have to do, rather, it’s something you get to do.  If the very seat you leave empty would be filled with someone who does not know Jesus, then your sacrifice of switching services would be well worth it.

150 men and women have the opportunity to give up their seat to make sure that someone far from God, will have a seat to hear the Good News that God has made a way for ALL people to walk with Him through faith in Jesus Christ!

GENESIS… God is doing something special in our midst!  He is inviting ALL of us to be part of ‘Helping ALL people walk with Him!’  Have we seen a lot in six short years?  YES!!!  But does God have more of Him that He wants ALL of us to see?  YES!!!!!

Please prayerfully consider if you are to be one of the 150 to worship at 5PM… and remember, 5PM begins on Sunday, October 4th.

It is a great joy to be on this journey with you all!!  md4jc

p.s.  The 5PM worship gathering will have limited child-care to begin with.  We will offer The Garage and The Station.  Learn more about GENESIS Kids here
