Today I took the first step toward membership at Watermark. I attended the first of two classes of Connecting Point, which are three hour sessions designed to inform people about the history, vision, and strategies of the church. Todd Wagner, who is the head pastor, covered the vision of Watermark, then we broke off into smaller groups to have a more intimate question and answer time. Basically they stressed the importance of being involved in community group, which is really my main motivation for joining.
I guess I didn't have to technically be a member to be apart of a community group, but I wanted the overall satisfaction of being apart of a larger community of believers before I plug into a small group. Small groups are the best way to meet people, make new friends, be held accountable and weave myself into this north Texas tapestry.
Next Sunday, Watermarks executive pastor will cover the goals of Watermark, than they will have a sort of ministry fair showcasing all the different areas where someone can serve in the church. I don't know where I will serve at Watermark, but hopefully seeing what they offer will point me in the right direction. Personally, I would like to be one of guys working the coffee counter every Sunday. Wonder why?
