Dear Invitation Church family, friends and first time visitors,

God is so good! We are growing and seeing new faces each week! As we continue to try and live out our mission of loving God, loving His Word and loving people we are beginning to see results for the Kingdom of God. Weather permitting we are ramping up our outreach in the local community around the church and we have had a number of good conversations! To God be the glory as we are His hands and feet in our community. The harvest is out there and it is our job to go and gather it in the strength of the Lord!
2017 Was an awesome year in ministry here is a quick summary:
134 Saved directly or indirectly through our ministry and partnering with Heart for Monroe
14 people baptized
Over $ 20,000 donated directly to the mission field
We have seen true growth in our own people as we learn to be a better disciple of Jesus Christ together!
We are looking forward to the rest of 2018 as we serve God in our community and beyond for His Glory!
Are you a person who has never come to a church service? I want you to know that God welcomes all people and the Bible tells us He does not want any to perish. We have established our church as a “come as you are” church meaning that jeans and tee shirts are fine. We are not concerned with the outward and neither is God so don’t let the lack of “church clothes” keep you from coming. Jesus was open to everyone from the leaders to the little children and so are we! Our music is simply songs that bring glory to Jesus Christ! Our musicians are not trying to impress or entertain. Their heart is to lead us into the worship of our risen Lord Jesus Christ!
If you want to check out our small group family discipleship class arrive Sunday morning at 9:45am. If you simply want to grab a cup of coffee before our main service come at 10:30am for 15 mins of coffee and fellowship. Our main service starts at 10:45am and is over right at 11:45am. In this service you will hear a message from God’s word that explores what the writer wanted to convey to the original hearers but also how we can apply the truths to our lives today. If you have small children we have a children’s ministry during our main service.
In His Faithfulness,
Darrin Deese
