Coastal Community Church Update

This adventure of church planting has been amazing for Shayla and I so far.  It feels like we are on a roller coaster that is in the process of climbing the first hill before the big drop and adventure begins.  Maybe you know the feeling, it is where you are hearing the tick, tick, tick of the coaster being pulled up the hill, the excitement of what is about to happen is mounting and your not sure where your going from here but at the same time you know it is going to be a blast.

We find ourselves right there, pushing our way up this mountain of getting ready to launch Coastal Community Church.  It has been quite a journey up to this point.  We have had some amazing things happen along the way like:

• Getting office space donated to use for our church.
• Building our Dream Team up to 40 people.
• Seeing tons of people come to our informational meetings on Tuesday night.
• Getting a 16 foot enclosed trailer with children and sound equipment donated to us.
• Having the opportunity to purchase a used Portable Church Industries trailer and equipment for an amazing deal.
• Doing tons of outreaches where we have physically touched over 4000 people through random acts of kindness in the community.

I could go on and on about what has been happening with our journey so far, there are so many stories to tell of opportunities we have had to show Christ’s love in a practical way to our community.  God is up to something BIG here in Ft. Lauderdale and He is ready to do a GREATER THING.

Thank you so much for your prayers, your encouragement and your support.  Without these, this dream of planting Coastal Communtiy Church to reach the unchurched, uncommitted and undecided people of Ft. Lauderdale and helping them to become a fully devoted follower of Christ would not be possible.

Please continue to believe with us for peoples lives to be changed, eyes opened to the reality of Christ and for us to make Jesus famous in our community.

Loving God, Loving People and Showing It,
T.J. and Shayla McCormick
