A Thank You From Pastor Degroot
Thank You Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, greetings to you in Christ Jesus our Lord. I would like to thank you for your most recent donation to the Mission work that is happening in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I thank God that Pastor Warren’s presentation moved you to consider supporting a mission that is far away from your front doors. I thank you for your kindness and would ask that you would prayerfully consider becoming individual ongoing supporters or consider supporting the mission work as a congregation within your annual mission budget. Currently I am tasked with raising $130,000 annually to support the work that we will be doing in Albuquerque and every donation is helpful but ongoing gifts are what really provide the backbone of the funding structure. Thank you again for your kind support. Lord willing we will see each other again as we fare forth on the broad highway.
In Christ, Pastor DeGroot

Not a Fan
If you would like to learn more of what it means to be a follower and not a fan check out the Bible Study on the book itself, on Right Now Media. There is a video Bible Study on Right Now Media lead by the author of the book, Kyle Idleman. There are six studies in this series. This study will help you dig into a few more topics from the book and learn what it means to completely commit to being a follower of Jesus.
