Today marked a major milestone in our journey to start a new church in Austin. Our team of 19 adults and 10 kids was commissioned this morning by our mother church Hill Country Bible Church Northwest. It was a moving moment to stand together with our team in front of several thousand people at HCBC Northwest being prayed for by the current and former elders of the church and send out to continue the vision to reach every man woman and child in Greater Austin with the life changing reality of Jesus Christ.
This closes a chapter of our lives, namely the Residency phase at HCBC. We are being lovingly kicked out of the nest to see more people impacted by the grace and love of God. For our church-plant, the City community church, that means in particular the people of Central Austin. We are now gearing up for our public launch on September 21st 2008, excited to see what God has in store for us!
