Three years ago I set out on the amazing adventure of launching a new church in the East End of the city of Pittsburgh. There have been so many ups and downs over the past three years. Many people who were with me from the beginning are still standing with me, shoulder to shoulder, as we seek to participate in God's redemptive mission in our little part of the city of Pittsburgh. Others who were with me in the beginning have moved on for various reasons, but I'm still thankful to those individuals who helped get our church off the ground. God has brought many new people to North Way East End over the years. I'm just as excited today to be a part of the transformational work of the Holy Spirit as I was three years ago. I have to admit, I've learned many lessons along the way and I've made some mistakes. There have been times when I've done some things well. The church isn't about me, though, The church is about God. We seek to make much of Jesus every week at North Way East End through worship, teaching, community, and outreach. As we celebrate what God has done in three years of ministry, we also recognize that we can do nothing apart from the empowerment of the Holy Spirit. We're expecting big things from God in 2015. Happy three year anniversary North Way East End!
