Hey everyone, here's the link to the page with all the info on the event coming up on November 15th at Epic designed to encourage area middle and high school students, root them in their faith, inspire them to live out their faith and make connections with others on the same journey. This night will be like summer camp on steroids! On this page, you can find all of the details including the ability to register and pay. If you are a student leader who would like tools to advertise this in your church, we have graphics, handouts and posters in digital format and can get them to you right away if you are interested! We can also drop off handouts and posters for you if you prefer. Let me know and we'll hook you up! https://epiclifechurch.com/one

So that text idea was very fruitful! I sent out 382 texts. Took about 20 minutes to send them all. I didn't receive any negative replies or "please remove me" texts but I did receive a bunch of bounce backs, "it's good to hear from you but we're attending another church" or "we've moved." Things like that which are helpful for cleaning up our list. But the real magic was in the responses to my question "do you have anyone you're inviting that I can pray for?". I've received 80 names of people to pray for and the reply rate was very high with a 50 responses (13% reply rate!) It also opened up some back and forth conversations and reconnected people I hadn't heard from in awhile. Be ready to invest a little time, though, as the response texts took about 1 1/2 hours to read and reply! I highly recommend giving it a try!

Hey everyone, as I mentioned today, we are looking to hire a part time student ministry director (10 hrs/week) if anyone knows someone who might be a good fit. I've attached the job posting. Feel free to pass it along!
