Today (Palm Sunday) the room felt empty as we began, then, in typical baptist fashion, a mad rush of people began filling the back rows and then working their way toward the front. (Wish I had some photos to show you... maybe of our Easter service next week). We ended up with at least 84 people (maybe more... we didn't officially count during the service, but we are certain that at least this many attended).

Afterward Jacob led a teenage lunch. 12 (TWELVE!) teenagers stayed after to grow together. Jacob's push is toward their becoming spiritual mentors to impact their community... not just playing games. They'll be lunching it together every other Sunday.

As they left the morning service, people took 150 copies of the below invitation to our Easter celebration. We will also have our first baptism next week! Please pray for us!
