Sunday Brunches

One of the most exciting and encouraging things we did this Fall was to host Sunday afternoon brunches at our home as a way to gather a few friends who had expressed interest in our church plant.

When we started in October, we thought we'd get 10-12 people per week for a small prayer and vision time, since we're just in the very beginning stages of our plant.

Well, we had 6 brunches in all, and I am thrilled to report (a little stunned, actually) that we had over 50 different people attend, 32 of them twice or more, and by December we were averaging more than 30 people per week.

These brunches have been just one of the many different activities we are involved in as we lay the relational foundation for our church and begin to form a vision for the kind of church we want to begin, but they have been particularly wonderful times.

We'll be starting back up on January 4th and if you're in NYC or know someone who is, we'd love to have you and/or your friend(s).

The brunches meet at our apartment (for now), 242 East 71st St. Apt 2E, but we may soon outgrow our living room.

Have a very Merry Christmas and see you in the New Year!
