New Saturday Night Services at the Orchard

I want to take a moment and post my thoughts about our first Saturday night service at the Orchard last evening.

I was on Welcome Team last night and I saw a lot of new faces! We were all praying for a big turnout but we got more than we expected. We set up rows of new seats to help take care of the overflow! God did exceedingly abundantly more than we can ask or think -- just like He said He would if His children would pray. We also saw people returning to the Orchard that stopped coming because their work interfered with Sunday morning worship. It was wonderful to see those people come back!

Personally, I like the new service. Pastor Scott calls it the "Guilt-free" service because you can sleep in on Sunday morning, go golfing (or horseback riding) without missing church! So, that's exactly what I did today. I slept in (just a little) and went out to spend time with my horse. This could be a great arrangement!
