Church Is No Longer In The Living Room

Yesterday was the first sunday in Doxa's new church building. What an incredible and surreal day that God made happen. It is so crazy to me to think that in the beginning of July we were still in the house throwing around several ideas as to how to get more into the community to connect with those that live in Renton. Now a month later we have our own building that Doxa can call home! God is so good! I can't even believe how quickly He wove all the details together to get us moved in so fast. And I have hopes that we will soon be filling up the place(with just our regular attenders we had the place comfortably filled) like for next week with our Grand Opening. I can't imagine how many people we will have to come and celebrate how God has used Doxa so far and how He will continue to use our church to share truth with the community of Renton. I can't wait to find out though!
Not only that we were given a building, but a church in Seattle donated much needed chairs What an incredible blessing.
Its going to be such a new routine for me to not just simply walk out of my room for worship practice on Sunday mornings, but I don't mind it in the least. The excitement of getting to go into the city and have church brings me so much joy that I can't be anything but grateful to God. I have been so blessed by God leading me to Doxa. I can't imagine what my life would be like without His guidance and provision in allowing me to be apart of a church with so much heart--for Christ and for people. I continue to pray that people would come through our doors and be wooed by Christ. That our affections for Him would be contagious and that we would continue to pursue his glory through this new chapter and growth of our sweet little church. http://www.doxacc.org/

Here's to new chapters.
