A New Toy and Way For Communication

I just learned about this whole blogging thing. I know, I'm a bit behind. I thought this might be a nice way to keep you all informed on what is going on in the lives of Dan & Jamie Henderson.

As many of you know, Dan will be completed with all his requirements from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School at the end of this August. Currently he is interning at Cornerstone Church of Blaine. It's been an incredible opportunity for Dan and he is learning so many things, including preaching. - He preaches next on July 27 in case you want to come here. 10:00Am at the Blaine High school.

Dan is feeling led to become a Church Planter. We are currently looking at three different possibilities and I'm getting excited/antsy to begin.


1. Medford, OR - this project is still in the beginning planning stages. It sounds like there are some churches in town that would like an Evangelical Free church to join them. Dan and I will need to take (and pass?) a lengthy church planting assessment for this project and we just got phase one in the mail yesterday.


2. Airway Heights, WA (Near Spokane)- We are still finding out info on this. It sounds like there was a church, is no longer a church, but wants to be a church again. We are very excited about this possibility and are planning a road trip the first weekend in August to go visit them. I'll post more info on them as I know more.



3. Ron, the pastor at Cornerstone, asked Dan if he might like to do a one year church planting internship with him. I think the idea is that Dan would continue to learn the areas of the church and what would be involved in starting another church. Cornerstone is a 5 year old church plant so Ron would be a good mentor for this. They have also talked about planting another church at sometime in the future and Dan may be a good candidate for that position.
