Going Double

Guess what?  In less than 48 hours we will have done it.  That’s right, by this time in 2 days we will have survived a monumental day in our churches history.  In about 38 hours we will start the 1st of 2 services on Sunday.  Why is this so exciting?  Why not

1. since I started this job I feel like all I have done is prepare to go to 2 services.  It has been an exciting and sometimes a little overwhelming task for the first few months of a new job.  Though at times it has seemed difficult, I have had amazing volunteers step up, grab the vision and run with it!  I am so excited I can hardly stand it.
2.  Double services means no children’s volunteer will ever have to miss another service.  The teacher’s that serve our children will no longer have to depend on a cd to grasp the vision and feel burnt out after as they diligently serve their  month in Kid’s ROCK with no opportunity to participate in coorporate worship.  Now they get poured into so that they are full and ready to pour into our children every week.
3. Double services have will have a tremendous impact on our children.  Teachers will now serve every week, giving opportunity to build more consistent deep relationships with children.  There are also 2 new classes opening up for Kid’s ROCK.  Planet ROCK will be for preschool children age 2-5 and ReROCK will be for children ages 6-9.  This is for children of volunteers, since they will be attending both services.  The children will go to their regular class during 1st service and then will be taken to the Planet ROCK and ReROCK for 2nd service.  The kids will have a blast and parents can serve and attend without worrying about whether their kids are tired or bored.  (Trust me, they won’t be bored!)  Parents – get ready….your kids are gonna start begging you to volunteer so they can go to their second service.
4. It’s just the beginning.  Somewhere along the week, it hit me!  This is just the begining.  When we reflect Monday morning about how Sunday went and we all take a deep sigh of relief.  It will only be a brief sigh because getting through Sunday doesn’t mean we have arrived, it means we have just started a new era in our church.  I once heard someone say (wish I could remember who but) God won’t send us the harvest if we aren’t ready.  Going double means we have already created room to grow 100%  easy!  Look out ROCK Church….here we go!
