Milestones

Well, we are now in January of 2008 which means that we have about 8 months until we are to launch our new church.
In order for that to become a reality we will have to see God's miracles over these next weeks and months.
Some of the critical milestones we need to see happen in the next 4 or so months are the following:
  1. Prelimiinary Launch Plan and Budget by January 15th
  2. Missional Core at 10 people by February 29th
  3. 100 Prospects by March 31st
  4. 200 Prospects by April 30th
  5. 50 Gatherables by May 31st

This means that our small team of core members will essentially immerse itself in the community in every possible way. Meeting neighbors and mechanics and waiters, and hair-dressers and teachers and people at the gym and people we do service projects with and... Well, I think you get the idea. We believe that God has prepared people's hearts in Austin to receive his love, our job is simply to find those he has prepared and be a conduit of that love to them. Sounds easy enough, huh? Well it is not and it includes finding a lot of people who are rather hostile to that love! So pray for our team to be faithful in sharing Christ's love with the people we come in contact with and to be connected with the right people to see this city reached with the good news of God's love and mercy.
