a word from andy

Thanks for the warm welcome! It's always difficult entering into a new community during a time of transition. Your handshakes, hugs and words of encouragement have meant a lot to me as I begin my time here with you.

It's amazing how God can transform our minds and hearts when we are open to His will. I wasn't looking to make a ministry change or for a new church. I called Pastor Matt to inquire about the position for a colleague of mine and in our conversations over the next few weeks, I began to discern my own ministry and call. After meeting with the staff, the band and a few members, I knew that this is where I was supposed to be serving.

I am still settling in and finding my place, but again I thank you and the staff for making me feel at home. I am passionate about creative worship planning and providing opportunities for you to experience God through the worship we present. I've got a lot of ideas to bring to The Gathering so you may see some changes over the next few weeks! I encourage all of you to stick around after worship and introduce yourself to me. Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday.

Blessings,
Andy
