It's starting to get very real! I'll confess that as we were about 30 minutes away from Patterson yesterday morning, my heart started beating quickly and I got butterflies in my stomach. I realized that we were getting ready to take a crucial step forward in the planting of Golden Valley Baptist Church in Patterson. Not only were we getting ready to put some money where our mouth was, but we were also getting ready to make some decisions that would have a tremendous impact on the success of this new church plant. I definitely wanted God's direction and blessing on the decisions of the day. I was thankful to know that so many of God's people were praying for our trip yesterday. It was certainly a profitable trip.
We were able to accomplish five goals for the day (besides eating at String's Italian Cafe!) . . . . . .
