Today in church we had a wild experience. Thirty minutes into the first of three services at our Cordova campus, the power went out. We have had some bad storms and thousands of homes and businesses have been without power. Our guest speaker for the day, Pastor Dino Rizzo from Healing Place Church didn’t miss a beat. After power went out, he preached his whole message with the emergency lights on (really no light at all and no a/c on).
Then the next two services we did old school worship, just acoustic guitars and voices. Our team is so awesome, they kicked into gear…put some candles on stage, opened all the doors to get some breeze and had some church. It was pretty amazing as we had church, many people gave their hearts to God despite having no A/C, no light, no videos…no anything. As Americans we normally can’t flow without precious A/C, but people were charged up to have church regardless. I was reminded as Pastor Dino preached, when Jesus is in the mix…ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN! What an amazing day! For all the people that made a Fresh Start with God, they will never forget the HOT day in church, when they made a decision to follow Christ. Coming out of the darkness, into the light. A day that we will not soon forget. Thank you Jesus that you are not bound within our limitations.
