Ekklesia

What a wonderful, wonderful day it was Sunday on 10/10/10. A few photos are attached.


God was so gracious to us. Not only were we able to launch Ekklesia, butwe are already starting to multiply more churches. Here are the finalnumbers for our opening day:


Corpus Christi -
Ekklesia: 124 people
Kingsville: 24 people
Alice: 19 people
Sinton: 10 people
Total: 177 people


Please pray that our Corpus campus would multiply soon. It was completely packed. They say when a worship service hits 80% capacity we need to do something to create more space. We were right around the 80% the previous week and at about 99% this Sunday. We need to get it down to about 60-70%
So pray that at least one house church will begin meeting in another part of town soon.
We also have a few Huddles starting soon. One in Corpus, another in Taft, and a youth Huddle in Portland.

What a great way to start. Thank you for your prayers and to God be the glory.

Blessings,
Bob Gomez
Lead Pastor of Ekklesia &
President of The X Movement
