The Church has left the building

This morn­ing is a morn­ing that will live on in my mem­ory for a long time.  We have been preach­ing about the true nature of the Church.  One that is not con­fined to a build­ing or an hour but is unleashed to change the world through the power of Jesus.

This morn­ing at @MCCExton (Marsh Creek Church) sac­ri­ficed their nor­mal time together to serve our com­mu­nity.  When we came up with the idea were excited by the poten­tial but had no idea what to expect.  A lot was put into the morn­ing by some great peo­ple to make it orga­nized and well run.

Then we saw the weather fore­cast.  Rain! Ugh

I will admit as pumped as I was this for this morn­ing when I woke up I was not feel­ing it .  I fig­ured on a sunny day if we got like 2/​3 of our nor­mal group we would be doing good.  On a rainy day I have to admit I thought we were toast.  This would be a test of our heart.

Well I learned a lot about the Marsh Creek folk.  Nothin get’s these peo­ple down.  Not only did they show, but they showed strong.  They were jacked this morn­ing and ready to roll.

I had the tremen­dous for­tune of serv­ing along side the crew at the West White­land Park right off of Ship Rd. in Exton. I would say we had a strong crew and a ton of kids.  The play­ground was rolling strong, we had a game of kick ball going and our crew rocked out 20+ wheel bar­rows of mulch in under an hour.  It was some of the most fun I have had in a while just hang­ing out, talk­ing green thumb, mov­ing mulch, and lov­ing life.  It was a great way to spend time this morn­ing just lov­ing God, and lovin each other while we did our small part to bless the community.

This after­noon I feel so blessed.  I look for­ward to post­ing some more sto­ries and pics from this morn­ing here.

Much love and respect to my MCCEx­ton fam.  You guys, rock and reg­u­larly rock my world
