I am so fired up about the Harvest Party in Homewood tonight. Over 600 people from the community have signed up to attend, and over 200 volunteers from North Way are planning to participate in the fun. It is really an inspiring thing to see such a tangible expression of service on the part of the student ministries and kidz teams at North Way, as they have taken a major step to become more externally focused. God is so good for opening the door to such a cross-cultural event, and I know God will be glorified tonight no matter the outcome.
I also have that interesting feeling that you only get before a special event. Anxiety tries to creep in, and nervousness or stress want to take over. But... the excitement brings the adrenaline of possibility, or that the risk could pay off! People will be stretched from their comfort zones, and breakthroughs in relationships will occur. People will be blessed by both giving and receiving. I believe that God shows up in these types of scenarios, when we as Christians take steps of faith.
So, if you're in the Pittsburgh area tonight, come on out to the Faison Primary School in Homewood from 7-9pm. It's going to be a great time! If you can't make it, please cover the evening activities in prayer.

Once again...it was an awesome night! We had such a blast and my kids didn't want to leave! I heard the same thing as last year..."can we do this next year?". Thanks so much Bryan for your vision and your heart! Your family continues to challenge and inspire us. Thanks for the fudge - it was amazing! :)
Thanks Kristin! So glad your family is a part of LAMP!
