A Day of Commitment

Today, as we do one Sunday every fall, our church (http://www.sevierheights.org/) dedicated part of the morning service as Commitment Sunday. On this day each year, church members are asked to make a financial commitment to support the capital needs of the church for the coming year. It's a beautiful sight to see families, couples and singles file down the aisles of the worship center and lay their commitments on the altar. God is blessing Sevier Heights in amazing ways and we look forward to what He will do in 2011 and for many years to come.

Just over the mountain in Burlington, North Carolina, another commitment was made in a church service this morning. Following the morning service in which he preached, the church family of Fellowship Church in Burlington unanimously voted to call my brother Mike as their Senior Pastor. We are very excited for Mike and his family. I pray that this morning's commitment of Fellowship Church to my brother's leadership and his dedicated and committed service to them in the years ahead will be much blessed by God. Congratulations Mike! Congratulations Fellowship!
