Un-be-liev-able

This was taken from my husband's blog Sunday night - you will have to go to his blog to view the many comments from people in attendance.

Today was Elevate’s Grand Opening service and I have a few Sunday night reflections:

My wife had a thoughtful card laid out on my nightstand this morning that encouraged me - thanks Kristen

Big thanks to those from CedarCreek who came up to help fill volunteer spots & show support.

Worship rocked this morning - good job Elevate Band - loved the Coldplay intro jam.

As people were streaming in this morning, I saw the faces of those who already call Elevate their home church - awe, tears, shock, smiles - just to name a few - it was beautiful.

Highest attendance for a Sneak Peek service was 62 but today 364 people attended our Grand Opening : un-be-liev-able!

The Elevate team was amazing today! From production to First Impressions to Kids - you guys were awesome!!

It hit me hard after service when someone said something like “thanks for this, I had given up on church” - its good to know that God doesn’t give up on us and that’s why Elevate does church the way we do.

Was great to come home, put on some comfy clothes then watch MSU make it to the Final Four and Tiger win his first golf tourney since knee surgery while I played with my son Addison.

I love hearing all the stories of how God is touching lives through Elevate (email yours to mystory@elevate-church.com)

Humbling to see what God has done in such a short time: 20 months ago, my family moved to Monroe to plant a church knowing only one family here & today hundreds of people joined us for worship.

Thanks for all the encouraging emails, text msgs & calls this afternoon - I appreciate the enthusiasm & support.

Can’t wait to see what God will do in the coming weeks, months and years at Elevate!
