Sunday Recap from Mother’s Day

May 11th, 2010 maurice 4 comments
  • Mother’s Day at Hope Church was absolutely incredible!
  • Our worship set: Mighty to Save, How Great Is Our God, Hosanna by Hillsong, and Revelation Song.
  • We playing 2 short Mother’s Day videos at different points during the service; both video clips were hilarious! People loved them and they really encouraged all of our moms.
  • One of my favorite moments was when we gave out a few special gifts in honor of our oldest moms present (oldest mom present was 86, second oldest was 83).
  • I took a break from our series through Galatians to preach a special Mother’s Day message (2 Kings 4:8-37). The title of the message was, “Take Him to Momma ~ She Knows What to Do!” You can listen to it HERE.
  • We had a beautiful time of altar prayer for all moms near the end of the service, which culminated with Communion. I’m still receiving reports from so many different mothers whose hearts were healed and mended by God during on Sunday.
  • We set up a free photo station for folks who wanted to take pictures as a parting gift on Mother’s Day…Thanks Kayla!

An introductory note from Joseph Hyde, HC’s new youth pastor…

Hello everyone!

I’m so excited to come on board as Hope Church’s new youth pastor! Here’s a little bit about me… I’m 33 yrs old, I’m a native Georgian, and I love GA Tech sports, the Atlanta Braves, Hawks, and Thrashers (sorry Falcons…I’m a NY Jets fan!). I have a BA in Christian Ministries and a minor in History from Palm Beach Atlantic University, an MA in Christian Education from Columbia School of Theology, and an MA in Political Science from Georgia State University. But most importantly, I’m a laid back, goofy guy who loves Jesus and who has a huge heart to reach, teach, and serve youth!

I’m so excited about the opportunity God has given me to partner with parents in ministering to your teens, and I look forward to all that God is preparing to do in our midst!
