What an awesome day we had at Lighthouse Church. Music and preaching were awesome. Our worship leaders, Daniel and Andrea were back from a week of vacation. They did a great job and we had missed them. Terry preached on "What Makes A Hero", learning that celebrities make a big splash but heroes make a big difference.
It was a little different celebrating Independence Day in Mexico with people from all over the world, but many of the American's were thrilled with the emphasis. We had 35 in attendance and then 25 of us spent the afternoon at the beach with pizza, and baptism. It was a day of fun and fellowship and obedience through next steps. Many first timers yesterday from here in Tulum and from the states. God continues to bring new faces weekly.
Bill and Renee will leave tomorrow, July 6th for a 3 week visit to Alaska. We are thrilled they are getting to see friends and family. We will miss them. Our progress on our Civil Association is progressing each week and God continues to bless us in reaching this goal to be a legal entity/church here in Mexico. Many of our attenders are beginning to feel the connection at LC and stepping forward to use their gifts and talents through Lighthouse Church; nursery volunteers, continental breakfast hosts and hostess, children's weekly camp (in the planning stage) and small groups continue to be the backbone of our unity. Thank you all for your continued prayers and support. Each week we see our church family develop into a mature godly church. Keep us humble and grateful to you, Lord.
