NBC update 2

This past weekend we held a concert featuring an upcoming Christian Band, Altar'd.

We believe this was the best weekend we have had since we have been here.  The band consists of 4 guys and then Matt's fiance Jesi who traveled with them.  They all stayed at our home and we were able to visit with them 24/7.  It was awesome! They are living for Jesus and want to Glorify Him in every way.  From the time they walked into our home you could tell this and it also felt that we had known them forever.  They are and always will be a part of the Ellis family.  We all loved hanging out with them and miss them already.  Matt and Jesi will be getting married Oct. 11th in Dallas.  We will be traveling there that weekend because they asked Mike to do the marriage ceremony.  Yes, that is how close we all became.  We can't wait!!!  Please pray for them as they prepare for the lifelong journey of marriage.

NBC update

Well, as on the last newsletter, this has been a very busy last 2 months.  God has done amazing things in our lives and in the church.  I will start with the month of Aug '08.  We had a team from Rogers, AR come for a few days and help us promote the church and a back to school block party we held.  We had several come to the party, which was held at the park next to the school where the church meets.  There were water slides, bouncers and free food.  We were able to share who we are and what NBC is all about.  The Sunday after this we had over 20 kids and overall around 70 in attendance.  Praise God!!
