Pardon the Interruption

Unfortunately, something has gone wrong with the server, causing us to lose the last month or so of blogs, sermons, and updates (that was one powerful Daylight Savings…).  Hopefully this will be remedied soon and we’ll be able to get everything back to normal soon.  Sorry for the confusion!


“Meant to Live” as performed by J Pru & Rich Lacoss
Posted by Eric Stillman on October 2nd, 2007 under Uncategorized. [ Comments: none ]

You’ve got to hear this: in case you missed it, here’s a copy of Sunday’s acoustic performance of Switchfoot’s Meant to Live by Jason Proulx (J Pru) and Rich Lacoss. Sound quality is fair at best, but the vocals & guitar work more than make up for it. Jason is a talented singer/songwriter (check out his MySpace page at www.myspace.com/jasonpru) and Rich is one of our worship leaders and an accomplished guitarist (check out www.richlacoss.com). Some day when they hit it big, they can include this bootleg on their “Rarities” EP.

The Switchfoot song is an incredible call to wake up to the fact that there is a quality of life available through Jesus Christ that surpasses anything you could ever experience apart from Him. He called it “eternal life”, and contrary to popular opinion, it’s not just “life after death” but something you can begin to experience right now. Over the next four Sundays, we’ll be awakening to that call and unleashing the limitless power of God in our lives so that He might bring us to that place where we truly, as Switchfoot puts it, “live for so much more.” Come and check it out - you won’t be disappointed.


Fido & Whiskers’ Big Day Out: The recap & pictures
Posted by Eric Stillman on September 26th, 2007 under Uncategorized. [ Comments: 1 ]

The first annual Fido & Whiskers’ Big Day Out was a huge success this past Saturday, with approximately 400 people, 200 dogs, and 0 cats in attendance.  We gave out tons of free food & drinks, Sarah took lots of free photos, and people won all sorts of free prizes.  Plus the vendors did an incredible job, from the Central K-9 agility curse to the fun competitions.  Kristin Burns was an incredible MC, of course, and Rachel Lutzker was a great judge for the competitions.  Here are some of the best pictures from the day:
