Present at creation
Tonight, the church I've had the good fortune to work with for the past two years, Mission Bay Community Church, moved from being a New Church Development to being a fully-fledged chartered church. After eight years of incubation in eight different locations, the church has come into its own as a congregation.
The service tonight, a combination of MBCC's typical worship service and the typical chartering service, was a true witness to the wonderful mystery of God. How else to explain the emergence of such a fantastically diverse group of people coming together to be God's hands and feet in this little corner of the world?
I have truly enjoyed working with and for this community for the past two years. And I look forward to many more to come, always offering many prayers for God's blessing on the work that we do together.

And thank YOU for being part of the MBCC story! Quite the night, not sure why I had so much anxiety about it, but of course, God all went and showed up! What a wonderful ride we are on!
