I've noticed that since the launch of Trailhead Church, it feels like I'm just living weekend to weekend. My week just goes by like it was nothing and then the weekend's here. It's as if every Monday, somebody activates my flux capacitor and it's Friday. Will this change when I'm actually living in Burlington? Will I still go weekend to weekend or will it slow down as I'm able to be more active in weekly stuff and evening services? I don't know, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
Anyway, on another note, I'm looking forward to Sunday. I'm really believing that we're going to have a great turnout this weekend and see some new faces. I like the Ramada but I can't wait until we have our own building down the road. Then, there's no more setting up and tearing down, and no more having to clean up after wedding receptions and having to enjoy the smell of dried booze at 7:30 in the morning.
It's hard to believe that these are someday going to be the moments of nostalgia (wow, that sounded like something straight out of an Alanis Morissette song). That someday we're going to look back in awe of where we started compared to where we're at. When we look in our sanctuary and think back to the Ramada or when we finally finish decorating our children's sanctuary and think back to that to that little cubbie hole in the back of the convention center. I mean, you never know who's going to walk in next at the Ramada Center. Quite possibly, one of the most influential people in our church's history may have their first Sunday with us this Sunday. We don't even know it, but elders, pastors, and missionaries could be just now coming. I can't wait for that day where we just look back.
