January is an important month in the life of WHBC! It is the first month, of the first year, of our second decade as a church! We know that 2008 will set the course for the next decade, so starting the year off right is very important to all of us!
Therefore, we are devoting the month of January, and some of February to prayer and planning. As a leadership we have already met several times and for many hours over the past couple weeks to do just that.
We want your help to shape the direction for the year and Tuesday the 8th is the start of a series of 8 Tuesdays devoted to prayer and planning for 2008. We know not everyone will be able to attend, but if at all possible please do.
The evenings will be recorded so all Team Leaders can keep up with the progress via free CD's. There will be no child care because we want everyone who is working with the children to have the opportunity to attend, so please either arrange child care, or if only one parent can come the other will need to order the free CD. We can help each other out too. Maybe swapping weeks to watch each others children.
If attending Tuesdays and also doing your life/kgroup is too much... please make the Tuesday's your priority for the first five weeks of the year, otherwise you are free to run with both your kgroup and the Tuesday Team Leaders Vision evenings.
More information will be made available and questions answers/discussed at the first Tuesday, January 8th - 7:30pm so please do your best to attend this first Tuesday in the series.
It's going to be a great year!

I will like to get on board with this time of prayer and planning and would like to know more about the focus of prayer so that i can spend time weekly praying along the same vein.
Thanks

Hia John,
You can keep up with all that’s taking place by downloading the Sunday messages.
Also, we’ll be putting the audio recordings from the Tuesday Night Vision and Training evenings up on a separate Leadership page. So once it’s up and running we can tell you about how to log on.
I trust that this New Year is everything God has planned for you, Annie and Nathaniel.
Blessings,
PM
