This past week our kids went to youth camp. We had four saved from our group. 60 overall. Of course the kids came back pumped. I wish we could have a camp atmosphere every Sunday. We have been going through the book of Revelation but Sunday a message on the 7 bowl judgments and the great harlot just didn't seem appropriate. So I deviated from that and pulled up I Cor 10:31. Here is the basics of the message:

Jesus Prepared Us for 2017 - Russell Johnson
Church Planter Report - Grace Life
Since our last update, we've had a few things worth sharing.
- We had over 600 people attend our Movie in the Park on December 17th. As people were arriving to the park, our church volunteers passed out information had several meaningful conversations about life, our church, and Jesus.
- We had our first KidLife Christmas play! We had over 20 of our kids in this production and personally, it was awesome to sit back and watch Colton and Merritt sing (or try to sing) a few Christmas songs.
- On a personal note, I was able to take two weeks off around Christmas time. Church planting is emotionally, physically, and spiritually exhausting for me and my family. To enjoy those two weeks at home with them and with God was rejuvenating.
- We doubled our LifeGroups and I officially only lead one, meaning we have 3 other couples faithfully leading their groups.
- Between October 1st and December 4th, our church brought 50 of their friends. This number only includes first time guests who were brought by someone who is a part of Grace Life.
- 57% of our church attends a LifeGroup.
- Are average attendance increased by 53%.
- We had 5 baptisms
- We have increased giving from internal resources. As we grew older, we knew we would approach deadlines on promised monthly support. However, as that has occurred, we have seen new families begin giving.
- We were given a truck for the sole purpose of towing our trailer.
- We have 43 adults and teenagers who regularly serve on the weekend.
- We started a Student Ministry and saw over 20 kids attend over 6 sessions.
Thank you again for all your prayers and generous support. I look forward to telling you more about what God is doing in Lake Asbury.
By His Grace,
Matt MacNaughton
