Ready For Launch

Well, we've officially been on the Spokane launch pad for 14 months!  The Meek family moved at the end of July 2013 and it's now the last day of September 2013.  What a ride it's been so far!  We've immersed into new schools, new friendships, new jobs, new home, new everything it seems.  Over the past 14 months we've loved participating as God has drawn together a team of amazing people around us to help plant a new life-giving, Jesus-honoring, grace-saturated, Spirit-filled church in Spokane, Washington that exists to glorify God and to serve people.

As our team has been learning and growing, it's become clear that it's time to "go public."  We haven't been hiding, by any means, since we've been meeting in a rented facility at 303 W. Main on Sunday mornings since the beginning of March.  Our sermons have been online, our sign goes up every Sunday, etc., but we haven't really done a big, splashy, publicly advertized "here-we-are" event.  (If you don't count the outreach carnival and car wash we did in the West Central neighborhood in July!  I guess that was pretty splashy!) So, if you happen to read this and live in the Spokane, Washington area, you just might see some Facebook ads inviting you to come check out Grace Church Spokane this month, especially for the big "Launch" on October 27, 2013!  You might also see some posters or receive an invitation from a friend.

I promise one thing about October 27.  It will be a great day to bring friends who don't know much about Jesus, friends who are already Christians but are burned out on "religion," or friends who are looking to connect with a healthy local church because they just haven't yet!  Maybe you're reading this and you fit into one of those categories yourself.  If so, why not come see what Grace Church Spokane is all about?  Come and discover with us what Jesus meant when He said, "I came that you may have life, and have it to the full."
