Community Baptist

April 3rd-7th
Community Baptist Church
Garner, NC

It was such a blessing to serve at Community Baptist this past week. We really enjoyed serving with such a sweet body of believers. Saturday night, after our arrival and setup, we were able to sit down with Pastor Mike and hear his testimony as well as how the church came to be 17 years ago! On Sunday, we celebrated those 17 years with an anniversary service, and afterwards we had a church-wide fellowship. The team set up nine-square and played with the teenagers that afternoon. There was no service that evening, so Pastor and his family took us bowling! We had a blast competing and enjoying each other’s company. Rachel was on fire!

Monday and Tuesday, we had regular services with teen pre-sessions and our kids program. On Wednesday, we had a family fun night, and we loved how excited the church was to compete in the activities. We had a wonderful time laughing together with the church. 

Thursday we had our Irish concert, and we were thrilled to have Aaron’s parents visit for the concert, as well as several of Natalie’s family members and friends. It is always so special when family is able to come to a service. 

Friday night, we finished our week at Community with a dodgeball tournament. The youth group and our team members were actively canvassing throughout the week in the afternoons for both the Irish concert and the dodgeball tournament, and we were able to see the Lord work through that at our dodgeball tournament, as several teenagers we met while canvassing came out to play dodgeball. The response after Aaron’s message was overwhelming, and a few even got saved. Praise the Lord! 

At the end of the week, the Coffey family added a new member to their clan. They adopted a sweet new puppy, Cuppa Joe. He and Brew (their other doggy!) are becoming fast friends! This little guy has brought so much joy to the whole team already.

We’re already looking forward to our next time of ministry with Community Baptist!
