Open Doors

I wanted to share with everyone how God is opening some amazing doors right now for The Journey. Last week, a conversation with the Principal of Rutland Elementary, future home of The Journey @ Providence, led to many opportunities for outreach within the school and community at large. The principal was so thrilled about our coming that the following opportunities opened up:

1. I get to go next week to the faculty meeting of 84 Rutland teachers and administrators and cast the vision of The Journey to them about how we desire to serve the school by partnering with them.

2. The Journey will have the opportunity to serve and work at their Talent Shows that are on May 2nd and May 5th. May 2nd is on a Friday night, parents of children will be flooding the school for that event. (NOTE: This is just over two weeks away from Preview Service #1 on May 18th)

3. We have been given the go ahead to post Journey news and events in the school newsletter and have been given permission to hang a sign on fence in front of the school whenever we are ready.

The doors that God is opening serves as more evidence that we are moving in the direction that he is leading. We must continue seeking out those doors and having the courage and fortitude to walk through them.
