Praise
We have been blessed by God! He has proven himself faithful to our group, time and time again through this process. One of our first prayer requests was for God to give us influence and favor in our community. To say that he has done that would be an understatement. God has opened doors and made provisions for us that would have been impossible without him.
We praise God for these and so many more things: paint. Yep, paint. I found enough paint in a closet of the building to paint all of the sanctuary, foyer, sitting area, and coffee shop. FREE! Go God! Chairs. Someone from our group offered to pay $1,000 to start the ball rolling towards us getting new chairs to replace the very outdated pews. Then a good friend from our support church in MS gave $3000, then another gave $500, then another $300, then another $200 and the next thing we knew we were sitting on brand new chairs! GO GOD!
Then last week someone from our group said, “I’ll give money towards new parking lot materials.” Then another person joined in and the next thing we knew trucks were dropping crushed asphalt on our parking lot. Another friend loaned us his dump trailer, and another friend donated his time to spread the materials on the parking lot. It is amazing watching God work! GO GOD!
This week someone dropped by the church and volunteered to do some much needed electrical work. We NEED this big time and God sent someone to our door! GO GOD!
At every turn God has proven himself faithful and shown us influence and favor. God is working in Laporte, Colorado and we know it has much to do with your faithfulness to pray for us.
We are aiming towards an Easter launch date. That's April 12th and it's not far off! Please mark this date on your calendar! We'd love for you to come be a part of our launch team.
Prayer Requests
We are still searching for a worship leader. Please pray that we will find the person God has for our church.
Pray for our team, as we continue the final preparations on the building and rooms.
Pray for the first service to go smoothly and for people to feel the sense of community and love that we want to portray.
The first year of a new church start is especially difficult financially. Please consider partnering with us monthly. Also…
How can you help?
- By praying for the Revive team. We are sustained by your prayers! By praying regularly for us you stand in the gap on our behalf. Each time you do, you help build a hedge of protection around us. Please consider praying daily, weekly, or monthly for us and let me know! Your prayers mean more than you know.
- By giving to our ministry, you help us keep the lights on. We have regular tithes and offerings but as churches begin they usually find themselves in tight places financially. Finances will make or break new ministries. Will you consider giving to our ministry needs - Monthly? Quarterly? Yearly? To give, visit www.livevertical.tv and click on the GIVE tab. Drop down box to Perry Project - Colorado. Thank you in advance for your gift.
- By coming to assist us personally. If you are planning a mission trip this summer would you consider coming here? We need teams for canvassing, prayer walking, sports camps, service projects, and many other needs. Please let me know if you’d like to join us! We have some teams coming this spring and summer and are super thankful for those that can give of their time for this ministry.
