Easter 09 Recap...

This past Easter weekend easily became one of my top 5 Elevation moments. It was an incredible display of God's mercy and grace. Here's a recap of the weekend:

Saturday Night: We had a one time Easter only Saturday night worship experience at our Providence campus. Going into the weekend we guessed that we'd see around 400 show up...We did have 400 ish show up, but that was in overflow because the auditorium was filled to capacity. It was a first century church moment with people cramming in to hear the message. All total over 1,400 people came out Saturday night to hear the gospel.

This was Overflow Saturday night!!!

Sunday: We are all about the numbers at Elevation, the number of marriages God can put back together, the number of people who experience salvation and the number of people who experience the mercy and grace of Christ. There were two BIG numbers we were asking God for going into the weekend:

Attendance:
We were asking Him to blow out minds and bring 7,000 people to our campuses to hear the gospel and He blew our wildest imaginations....7,8999 showed up.

Salivations: As a staff were were not advertising the number we were praying for, but we were aggressively asking Him for 700 people experience forgiveness of their sins...guess what, He blew that out of the water as well...740 people professed faith in Christ!!


Monday: Absolutely exhausted in the best way possible. The best way to describe it is "a Holy hangover"....

God is Good!!!!!!
