I am blogging today over at Forefront's Blog, so there's no sense in doin' double duty people. I know this talks about Forefront people, but you're all family too *wink wink*
So it was about a month ago. A number of the staff were getting to the office as usual. Since my office is the first one in, I usually get in conversation as people get to work. But this day was different. Why? Well the day before our lead pastor and friend, Vince, announced the amazing work God had planned for him in Las Vegas.
As a staff we were proud and encouraged, yet sad to eventually lose a friend and close family. We talked about what the future looks like. How does Forefront look 5, 10, 15 years from now? We agreed that God has a plan and things are going to stay strong (I mean look at the reaction from everyone, Forefront is strong as a rock people, seriously). Then I said something that I wish wasn’t true…
“Guys, in this process Satan is going to look for every angle to attack the people and staff at Forefront.”
It’s True.
Believe it.
We’ve asked you guys to pray for the Cason’s and their family as they go from 0 kids to 3 kids, the Heilman’s as they look to God with Joe and his health, the Antonucci’s and other families as they head to Las Vegas and into an unknown world of ministry… but I bet the staff is not the only one’s to see trouble and pain creeping into their lives.
So it burdens my heart to know, “How can we pray for you?”
Nothing is more powerful than the power of people praying together and coming alongside each other with our suffering and hurting. So, let’s hear ‘em people.
