'For now we really live, since you are standing firm in the Lord….'

More F.A.T. elders please…

By FAT I mean Faithful, Available, Teachable.

The world needs more guys that are FAT…….and leading churches for that matter.

Next week we (CCK) have the privilege of appointing three new elders (well, its God who appoints) to the high servanthood role of guiding, guarding and governing.

These men are FAT!

Don’t eat too many chocolate eggs!
