Getting Started

GETTING STARTED

Yesterday the members of Faith Community unanimously voted on a motion to re-plant Faith Community. Your prayers and thoughts over the last few weeks are greatly appreciated. Our leadership has been working diligently over the last several months to see this process begin. And that’s where we’re at, a beginning. Thomas Carlyle once said, “In every phenomenon the beginning remains always the most notable moment.” It is no small thing that we are beginning anew, but we also have a great task ahead. These daily newsletters will give you snapshots of our future and help keep you up-to-date on all that is going on. You can also email daily prayer requests to faithcommunityhouston@gmail.com and requests will be added to the left side of this page each day.

The next several newsletters I will begin explaining the formation of a cell-church. We will closely follow a design described by Joel Comiskey in The Church That Multiplies. We will endeavor to answer many of these questions: How will we grow through re-planting? What exactly is a small group/ cell group? What do these groups do? What will my role be in the process? What will it take for this to work? Many of these questions will be answered, but as you grow in understanding many more questions will emerge. I encourage you to continue reading these updates each day, and I believe the peaces of the puzzle will begin to fall together.
