Spring has Sprung!

Spring has sprung friends! This was the winter that I thought might just last forever, but according to my calendar it is officially spring. Not every day feels like spring yet here in Cleveland, but we have seen 60 degrees already so I’m content.

Tony and I have officially settled in to home ownership complete with fixing a running toilet, a door that fell off the hinge, and a door that wouldn’t shut. LOL consider us broken in home owners folks!

Things are going great with Gateway Church Old Brooklyn! We are coming up on Easter Sunday this Sunday and are celebrating our 12^th service! We are officially in the double digits! We continue to have people from the neighborhood check out the church on Sundays and already hear regular visitors calling Gateway Old Brooklyn their church home….how awesome!

We have officially multiplied our community group in to two groups, and things are going great! As with any change, it takes time for people to adjust, but we feel most everyone has found one of the two groups that works well with their schedules and is making it a priority to attend. We are super thankful to the Senal family for opening their home for the second group. While Tony and I are attending both groups at the moment-it is so nice not hosting both groups!

We had a mission team from Tennessee in town this week. We set up shop at our local Rec Center with popcorn, face painting, and games and promoted summer camps and events that we will be hosting this year. It has been such a blessing to have such a great relationship with our local rec center and has been such an open door to be involved in the community.

 
















Please keep us in your prayers friends as we enter Easter Weekend! We sent out another set of post cards to the local neighborhood for Easter. Please pray for the people receiving these post cards to come Sunday!

Please pray for us to be prepared for the people that walk through the church's doors Sunday morning whether that be a large or small number. Pray that we can show them the love and hope they can have in Christ.

Please also pray for the Lord to give us wisdom and patience as we continue to search for a music leader!:)

I hope everyone has an awesome Easter weekend! He is Risen!
