As I look past over this past month and all the lives have been touched here in the Chattahoochee Valley area not only through Take the City but also by all the other amazing ministries and churches I am really excited. I believe that the Kingdom of God is truly advancing in our area and that God is doing a great thing here through His Church. As more and more churches and organizations are connecting and working together I see that the Church is only getting more strong and effective in reaching our city that desperately needs the HOPE that can only be found in Jesus Christ.
One exciting thing I noticed this past outreach event was how diverse the Church is in our area and how much of a blessing the diversity is. I noticed this when one of our outreach teams returned overflowing with joy and excitement because of all they had seen God do. The thing I noticed was that the team was made up of a middle-aged white brother, middle aged black sister, two young Hispanic brothers and a young black brother. I sat and thought about it and realized that they were all from different churches and cultures but they had all been able to come together and agree that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is worth sharing to our city. God is bringing people together from various races and denominations in our city in ways like never before!
I wish I had more time each month to simply write down and record the testimonies of all the amazing things we have been seeing! God has been giving us an amazing amount of favor in many of the communities we have been serving, especially in the Lakebottom and Wilson homes areas. We have seen many new people coming to Christ and are still working with them to get them plugged into local churches, support groups and places where they can be challenged and grow.
Thank you all so much for your continue support and prayers. Please let me know if I can ever serve you or help each of you in any way.
For the Kingdom,
Andrew Chalmers
