We have set up a mission trip blog for the students (and adults) going on mission trips this next week. We are going to try to keep this blog updated daily, in order to share what we are doing with our supporters, family, and prayer partners. Check out our blog at http://rccstudentmissions.wordpress.com.
Ministry Update: Busy Days Ahead
I apologize for not blogging much. In the past several weeks, I have been a bit overwhelmed. Between mission trip fundraising/planning, getting ready for camp, and all other student ministry stuff this summer, I have been quite busy. It doesn't stop, though. We are almost finished with Camp Create at RCC. After that, I will … Continue reading Ministry Update: Busy Days Ahead

Because of your prayers and financial gifts, we have reached our goal to go on our … Continue reading We Need Your Help for Puerto Rico 2011
Still Looking for Support for Puerto Rico Missions Trip
As I have stated before, Yvette and I will join nine high school students and three other adults from our church for a mission trip to Arecibo, Puerto Rico, from July 17-23. This is a very exciting time for us and our church, since it is our first mission trip outside the United States. However, … Continue reading Still Looking for Support for Puerto Rico Missions Trip
Moving Forward After Orange 2011
The 2011 Orange Conference is now behind us all. If you were there or just kept up with all my blog posts, you know there was a ton of information. Often, one will be overloaded after a conference like this, wondering what to do first. I know I was like that last year, and I … Continue reading Moving Forward After Orange 2011
Baptism from April 3, 2011
Yesterday, I was able to baptize another student in our youth group. He's an awesome kid, and I'm really looking forward to what God is going to do through him. This is just another time when I am reminded of how awesome my job is. Thank you God for this blessing!! For some reason, WordPress.com … Continue reading Baptism from April 3, 2011
A Second Chance for Those Caught in Sin
Our lead minister at RCC was on vacation on February 27, 2011, and he asked me to preach in his absence. The topic was "A Second Chance for Those Caught in Sin" as a part of our "People of the Second Chance" series. The main Scripture I used was from John 8:1-11, and the main … Continue reading A Second Chance for Those Caught in Sin
Thanks Orange for Connecting Our Church’s Ministries
Last year, as you probably know, was our church's first time heading to the Orange Conference. One thing that I want to thank Orange for is connecting our church's ministries. While we were not the type of church who completely segregated our ministries, we sometimes did not know what was going on as much as … Continue reading Thanks Orange for Connecting Our Church’s Ministries
Orange Week – February 7-11, 2011
This is just a heads-up that that this week is Orange Week. I've been asked by the Orange Social Media Team to blog about the Orange Conference and the Orange philosophy this week. So, expect several posts (at least one a day) about Orange. If you have been curious about this way of changing the … Continue reading Orange Week – February 7-11, 2011
Excited About RCC’s First Elders
On January 16, 2011, Rockingham Christian Church made a big step forward in commissioning our first elders! This completes the process from us being a new church that depended on others to a church who completely supports itself internally. That's so cool. God seems to be moving and working in our growing church. Why does … Continue reading Excited About RCC’s First Elders
