Provision

"But even then he didn't leave them without a clue, for he made a good creation, poured down rain and gave bumper crops. When your bellies were full and your hearts happy, there was evidence of good beyond your doing." -Acts 14:17, The Message
We have a Lord that provides.   Amen!  Last Sunday, the Hollywood Presbyterian Church Young Adults and the Dweller’s hosted an open house and garden work day at 5846 Gregory.  Not only did the weather remain merciful and mild, the work was joyous and productive.  Many neighborhood kids turned out to help too!  We finished laying the basic brick path design in the garden, planted new flowers, new tomato plants, and citrus, and removed the nasty poison tree!  Brandon, our self-proclaimed DOOR-door repairman, also took it upon himself to fix several doors within the houses and begin the work to bringing light to our sign.  “Let there be light,” said he.  We say, amen to the amazing ways the Lord provides!

Last winter, our current Dwellers prayed that more men might be called to come serve in Hollywood.  Again, the Lord is listening and acting!  Curtis and Alex are already on board to come serve in Los Angeles as Dwellers this fall, and several other men and women have expressed interest and are currently in discernment processes.  How great is our God!

      

Next week we really begin to prepare for our summer Discover groups, which will start heading our way in June.  There is still some availability, so please click here if you’re interested to come see all the amazing ways God is working and providing here in California!

Amen!

Matthew
