It’s the end of the world as we know it, a new church in SA

Behold, I will do something new, Now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, Rivers in the desert.  -Isaiah 43:19

God is doing a “new thing” in our city.  Amongst the great churches in San Antonio we are planning to launch a new one.  We are blessed to have been given the support of Community Bible Church as we launch out to gather this new community.  The journey begins today for The Park Community Church.

Does San Antonio need another church?
Without question!  As we can see the churches in the city are doing an awesome job and serve as a light to the city but we are all to aware of darkness that still exist. Our prayer is that God will bless our community to stand among so many others to speak the truth of God into a lost world.

The Park DNA is comprised of three building blocks: Passion, Compassion, & Wisdom

  1. The Passionate Pursuit of God. Each of us is hard wired by God to long for spirituality, to ask the question is there more?  We believe the pursuit of God is a life long quest, one we are individually called to.  In Christ we find God, but the journey continues as we daily try to know more of the heart of God.
  2. Overflowing Compassion for People. There is something deep inside of us that knows we need to be connected to other people.  Even more, we know we are called to make a difference in the world.  Our prayer is, as a church, we would extend daily compassion to one another and as a community we would be known for overflowing compassion to the social injustices of our world.
  3. Godly wisdom in every day decisions.
    Our attention is often divided between what seems to be wise and what the scriptures outline as actual wisdom.  We trust in God as the author of creation and; therefore, believe He offers us the very best way to live.  As we apply the scriptures to our daily lives our faith becomes alive.

We are asking 5 things of everyone we know, and anyone we can meet…

  1. Pray for us.  Our dream is to gather a community whose calling is the passionate pursuit of God, overflowing compassion for people, and Godly wisdom.
  2. Network For us. We are willing and ready to grab a cup of coffee, or a meal, and tell anyone about our vision.  Connect us.
  3. Support us. We have committed our time and money to this new church.  We are asking you to do the same.
  4. Join us. We will begin meeting soon, if you want to join us then e-mail me austintx1@mac.com and we will keep you up to date.
  5. Lead with us. Our passion is to build a leadership culture sending people into the city for ministry.  If you think God may be calling you to leadership in this new church then let me know your heart.  e-mail me… austintx1@mac.com

As we build steam we are looking forward to a citywide launch service on Easter Sunday, April 4 at Orsinger Park.  It’s going to be an amazing journey, you are invited to join us.
