The Beginning of something huge…
It’s not too often in life when you have the opportunity to be a part of the beginning of something incredible. Well, this next week, May 13th-15th, about 150 people will be able to do so when the Aletheia Network will hold its very first Network Conference. I love grass roots events…Probably why I’m a church planter. And I’m not going to lie, I am really stoked about this. Other than promoting it to our own churches, we haven’t really gotten the word out to the public because we are learning as we are going. Next week will be a trial run. But by the looks of things, those three days in Richmond are shaping up to be amazing! And we do want as many people to know about it as possible.
10 years from now when there are 20 (or more) churches in the Aletheia Network, and our Conference will be attracting a thousand people, we will look back on May 2010 and smile and say that was the beginning of it all.
The purpose for this conference, which is called ReFLECT, will be to gather the leadership and some of the people from all of the Aletheia Churches under one roof for a three day celebration of what God has done over the past (almost) nine years since the first Aletheia Church was established in Harrisonburg, Virginia. We have so much to thank God for. His Word has taught us how to develop churches and during those three days next week, we are going to “reflect” on God’s Word and look at those Biblical principles that have catapulted this movement of God.
The Aletheia Bands from our various churches will be rocking the stage and leading us in worship, our pastors will be delivering the teaching, there will be breakout times for those in attendance to strategize for the future, and of course there will be lots of food and lots of time to hang out.
The price of the event is $150. This includes registration, hotel stay, and some food costs. Pretty cheap for a three day event. And guess what, there is still time for you to register. We are taking about 15 people from our church plant here in Tampa. Our people are excited. I can’t wait! It’s going to be amazing.
Please be there if you can, especially if you live in Virginia. Don’t regret not being at the first ever Aletheia Network Conference.

Looking forward to it. We signed up last Sunday. Can’t wait to see you guys on Wednesday.
Man!!! Can’t believe I missed this! Maybe next year!
Mark it in your calendar big man…May 12-14! Richmond, Va. Love you man.
