Be Sent: Life-Changing Truth!

Welcome back! Ok, so we realize our last several posts look similar, but that's only because over the past several months, we have continued to have the privilege of baptizing more and more new believers! So, check out MORE baptism pics below!






In the News!
This past month, Lifestone Church was spotlighted in a Southern Baptist Texan article, "Utah-Idaho Partnership Bears Fruit Along Wasatch Front":
"The fastest growing church plant in the history of the UISBC [Utah Idaho Southern Baptist Convention] is Lifestone in Herriman, Utah, sponsored by Granbury’s StoneWater... Lifestone, founded in 2013, has quickly grown to nearly 100 members... Prior to the launch of Lifestone Church in 2013, Herriman, Utah, was the largest U.S. city without an evangelical church. Since that time, Lifestone has baptized 24 people, worships together in the local rec center and hosts seven Bible study home groups!"


Back in Session!
This past weekend, "Lifestone University" recommenced! LU is a "class" led by Dr. Travis Kerns. Travis and Staci open their home each Sunday night so that people can learn about the Bible! Sounds simple enough, right? You wouldn't believe the response we get! People here are so incredible hungry for God's Word, they take advantage of every opportunity to hear the Truth that so many elsewhere take for granted! 
We love this pic of the shoes of Sunday's 32 Lifestone University
 attendees piled up in the entry way at the Kerns' house! :)

Easter's On Its Way!
Sunday, April 5th will mark the second annual Lifestone Church Community Easter Service and Egg Hunt! Please pray as we iron out all the details for what is sure to be a life-changing celebration! As many of you know, Easter Sunday is the best chance we have to get a "yes" when we invite our friends and neighbors to come to church with us! With this in mind, over the next few weeks, Pastor Ben will teach a series he's titled "Opportunity Knocks", equipping the people of Lifestone with practical ways to build relationships and invite non-believers to join them for church services, and, more specifically, Easter Sunday. As we close our 40-day study of What On Earth Am I Here For with the fifth of life's purposes, BE SENT, we look forward to diving deeper into learning to BE SENT right here in Herriman to share the Good News of Jesus' Amazing Grace!
