Family & Friends,

Your prayers have been so appreciated. We have been so blessed and encouraged to have eyes to see the Lord's faithfulness and presence in our lives this past month!
 
This month we are so grateful to the Lord for the 6 days of relief Jackson has finally had from his night terrors. They were initially brought on by a high fever back in January. About 45 minutes after he falls asleep each night, he sits up in his bed crying and still dreaming, eyes wide open. We are still praying for our little buddy to move past this. Aside from that, I was a best man in a good friend's wedding, Emily led worship for Pacific Church Network's Spring women's retreat, we hit up Legoland for the boys birthdays, got some cool 2-for-$5 sunglasses at the farmer's market, and celebrated Kobe's last hurrah. I'll miss him. #Lakers

CYNTHIA MOSSMAN & "SAVEONE"
I’ve shared with you in the past about a friend of mine who I had the chance to facilitate the Awaken & Activate workshops for. Following the workshops, Cynthia felt invited by the Lord to partner with SaveOne.org and offer a 12-week Bible study for women who have had abortions so that they may deepen their knowledge of God and learn to accept His forgiveness and healing.

One of the women in her study recently took a trip out of state to visit family. While there, she shared with a family member that she was attending the study. That family member expressed interest in attending something like that. They jumped online and found that there was a SaveOne study only a mile from her house! Praise God!

Cynthia shared with me how excited she is that the women in the study have been telling lots of other women who have had abortions about the study.

Would you pray that God would continue to expand Cynthia's ministry with SaveOne and that her dream of seeing a pregnancy center in Big Bear Lake, Ca would come to life!?

100% IN 100 (+ 28 AND COUNTING...) DAYS
Though we did not meet our goal of 100% in 100 days, we have been so encouraged this month by God's faithfulness through the 29 monthly ministry partners we have. God has been so faithful in growing our ministry support team as we've invited people along the way. Last month I let you know that we were trying to make up the remaining $800+/mo gap. Today I am thrilled to share that we are just $422/mo away from our 100% goal! Please continue seeking the Lord for our full provision. We long to freely dive fully into everything before us!  (Link to Partner)
I recently finished reading Beyond The Local Church: How Apostolic Movements Can Change The World by CRM's president, Sam Metcalf.
"Affirming the strengths of apostolic personalities, Metcalf shows how they can be deployed to cross cultural barriers, renew secular societies and transform the nations with the power of the gospel."

Thanks for asking! Our church is in an exciting season...

FIRST, after training 11 people over the last few months, we are launching 5 new "Discovery Groups" this coming week.

SECOND, several very tired rooms in the church are getting renovated by some very generous people. This is allowing us to up our children's ministry game and more!

THIRD, regarding our music ministry, God has finally sent me some administrative help. I've begun training a friend named Jeremy to help with some of the logistics.

FOURTH, next weekend I will be hosting another round of Awaken & Activate workshops where people will gain further clarity on how God wants to use them.

FIFTH, this Saturday (4/16) I will meet with our elders to determine where our church will focus it's outreach efforts in the community, and make plans to do so.
 


Thanks for all of your love, prayer and support! We’d love to hear from you!

Nick and the Greenwood fam!
