The first quarter of 2012 has been a blurr....lots of great ministry activity...plus the renovation project for the foyer and halls is almost finished!

Last night our Fine Arts Students shared their ministry presentations with us...WOW!! O'Fallon Assembly has long been a strong proponent for students discovering and using their spiritual gifts. During the Fine Arts Showcase last evening our students were involved in:
  • Human Video
  • Sign Language Solos
  • Female Vocal Solo
  • Vocal Duet
  • Saxophone solo
  • Short Sermon
  • Song Writing
  • Percussion
  • Worship Team
  • Art
  • Poetry

We are proud of all of our Encounter Students! They did such a fantastic job. Many of them will be advancing to the National Finals in Louisville, Kentucky in early August.

LIFE Groups started in the month of February and will have four meetings in the first semester of 2012. Eight groups have formed and encompass the entire church fellowship! Great times of relationship building, group discussion, fellowship and interaction.

The New Members Class was initiated in early January and concluded the second week of February. We recently brought in a large group of new members here @ O'Fallon Assembly. Each new member comes with many wonderful spiritual gifts to be used in advancing the Kingdom of God in our community, county, state and world!

Recently we were privileged to have Howard & Margie Cummings as our pulpit guests. They served for over 27 years as Lead Pastors of Aurora First Assembly in Aurora, Colorado. Currently, Howard is the President of Global Mandate, a missions consulting and speaking service. We enjoyed a wonderful time of ministry and fellowship with this gracious couple!

There are less than two weeks left till the greatest event in Christianity: the Resurrection! We are planning a great Easter Weekend with lots of prayer, outreach and victorious ministry!

Let me invite you to attend one of our worship experiences. We would love to have you join us. Plus, I would love the chance to meet you!

Love to all!
