Well we just wrapped up a week of Vacation Bible School here at Old Fort Church. What a blessing it was. We had kids and servants all over the place ever day this week. It was just a great and awesome experience. In total we had over 140 kids during the 5 days and we had just over 30 different servant volunteers. Our youth and older children got involved as well as they served the younger children and served as great role models. The children collected cans to turn in for money to start a children's outreach project for the future that is ongoing. Some of the money will go to pay for school supplies for children who cannot afford them for this fall. What a week!
It didn't end there because we had the children sing in worship today and invited all the families to come. We had over 310 in worship this morning. WOW! Let me put this in perspective for you. I have been here for two Easter's and have records of the last 5 years and we have never had a Sunday over 300. This may be the single largest attendance in a long long time at OFC...maybe ever??? God is so good an surely has been blessing us! I encourage you to take time to give thanks to our awesome staff team and our servant volunteers. Our children's ministry team did a fantastic job! Way to go God.
As I was looking out over the crowd this morning in worship I was thinking about how many of these folk have never been to our church or any church for that matter. Many may have not been to church yet this year or for many years. What a blessing. God is using us to make a vital and lasting impact on others. I am so thankful for His work and humbled that he is moving through our church. Blessings, Your Dreaming Pastor

Yes! Your blog is great, and I know something about the night elves, they are the race I WOW power leveling when I get my first account:The reclusive Night Elves power leveling[ were the first race to awaken in the World of Warcraft Power Leveling. These shadowy, immortal beings were the first to study magic and let it loose throughout the world nearly ten thousand years before Warcraft I. The Night Elves' reckless use of magic drew the Burning Legion into the world and led to a catastrophic war between the two titanic races. The Night Elves barely managed to banish the Legion from the world, but their wondrous homeland was shattered and drowned by the sea. I love this race and suggested everyone that start their WOW power leveling a rogue or druidof night elf
