Right between two great weekends!

This weekend, Emily and I visited Rick Long and The Point Community Church in Frankfort, KY. I touched base with Rick, the lead pastor there, a few weeks ago. I invited myself to visit his church plant, and then he generously invited me to share with his church about God's vision for Ridge Church and our hopes and dreams for how God can transform our area of Knoxville. Rick and The Point also prayed for me, Emily, and Ridge Church. It was a cool day!

I can't say enough about the guys like Rick in the the Acts29 Network. The network is great for church planters--it's an awesome group of guys who are always there to pray for each other, assist each other, and encourage each other.

Today is Wednesday, and that means we're halfway through this week and almost to another weekend... And this weekend is a big one for us! We're having a Picnic in the Park this Saturday from noon to 3 pm at Fountain City Park. It's an opportunity for anyone interested in The Ridge and getting to know other people interested in The Ridge to come and hang out together as the summer winds down. Bring your own lunch and we'll provide dessert!

Bring your kids (if you have kids) and join us for a relaxed, no-pressure time to get to know each other a little better. If you have any questions, just call Emily on her cell phone at 704.579.2022 and she'll be glad to help!
