The clock is ticking!

Can you believe what God is doing in our midst?! In just two hours we will kick off 24 hours prayer in the new HPC Arena. At 7pm tomorrow night we will have our first service in the new sanctuary. Saturday we will hold a Servolution rally for ten days of serving leading up to Easter. And this Sunday we will have our opening weekendservices at 9:00 and 11:15am. We have prayed, planned, prepared and participated and before our eyes God is proving faithful. This building is more than just another facility, it is an opportunity to serve more and reach those who are not yet here! For five years we have anticipated this very weekend. You won’t want to miss it!

Serve Saturday at Donaldsonville

Our Donaldsonville campus kicked off Serve Saturday this weekend with a bang! The Mobile Medical Clinic and over 40 volunteers showed up at 7:00am to serve the community. They set up three teams to begin seeing patients, cooking pastalaya and doing a food outreach. They gave out over 500 bags of groceries, 2 pallets of drinks, served 300 plates of food and served 50 patients.They wrapped up the day with a celebration of the five year anniversary of the medical clinic.

 It is amazing to think that five years ago two volunteers came up with the idea to outreach to those in need of medical assistance who couldn’t afford it. What started in a small closet at the Donaldsonville Campus, is now an outreach that serves the poor and hurting around the world.
