Growing in Houston!

Sorry I haven’t posted much lately. It’s Christmas season which means I’m usually out of pocket more often with events, outings, etc. One of those events was last evening and I thought it merited a post.

Last night thirteen couples gathered for dinner to celebrate not only the season of Christmas but the fact that God has truly begun a movement of church planters for the city of Houston. I asked pastor Bill Streger of Kaleo Church, who was one of the first Acts 29 Network planters in Houston, how many A29 planters there were 24 months ago. He said there were only two or three at best. Here’s a snap of a few more than two or three of us…and growing.

(Some of you CCCC-ers will notice they let some of our staff came along. Hey, you know too well that Prater, Alston and I won’t turn down free food!)

Add this to the new Houston Church Planting Network that’s increasing in numbers and it appears that something wonderful really is happening in our neck of the woods. So, in your times of prayer over this holiday season, remember the Bayou City!

For the Gospel. For Houston.
