Tonight Jesus is moving again into the neighborhood. He's going through his people. Jonathan, Mandy, Clay, Jessica, Raymon, Lindy, Nathan, Melissa and other Jesus-followers showing up at Hurst Apartments for a party.
Parties were and are one of Jesus' favorite places to meet people and have them catch some of the fresh air of kingdom life. There will be food, laughter, neighbors getting to know neighbors, games, love, and the spirit of God, brooding over that little piece of real estate. He's beginning the process of transforming it and helping us see the direction he wants us to go.
So tonight, come Lord Jesus. Do it again. This time it won't be fish. It'll be pizza. But use it and the games and your people to begin a transformation we can only imagine!
We're going to the people--the people you miss most. The poor. The broken. The skeptical, The bruised.
Use us. Help us to see you in the faces of the youngest child, as well as, the wrinkled granmother.
When the night is done, may they want to hang out more with some crazy folks who want to come beside them and love them and help make life more hopeful for them and their neighbors.

Wow! I really wish I could come too. That sounds great. Take pictures. Especially of kids, and then in a week or two, take the prints to the parents. They will love you for it.
This is sooooo cool. I am happy for you.
Many blessings...
