Prayer Requests

•November 2, 2007 • Leave a Comment

Here are things that are on our hearts right now:

- the sale of our homes in Bryan/College Station and the purchase of new homes in Irving

- jobs for Brad & Laura

- friends for Samuel & Jeremiah. Samuel is especially anxious about starting a new school. He will be in 2nd grade at Farine Elementary.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. We are banking on them. :)

Who we are….

Today this is less metaphorical and more practical. I’ll save all the metaphorical stuff for later. :) But I wanted to introduce those moving to Irving (as of now) so you can get a better idea of who we are.

Brad & Laura Tilton have been married almost 2 years. Laura works in an architecture firm in Bryan and Brad works for College Station ISD in the IT department. Both are looking for jobs in the metroplex and hope to move to Irving sometime before the end of the year. Brad & Laura have been at ComChurch since they got married and are very excited about creating community in Irving. They are gifted in hospitality and look forward to having people in their home.

The Parks

David, Shelley, Samuel (7) and Jeremiah (3) Park have been at ComChurch for 3 years. David works for Atmos Energy in Rates & Regulatory Affairs. Shelley stays home with the boys. They enjoy getting to know new people, being involved in their boys activities and being involved in the community. Samuel is in a Dual Language program and will continue that once in Irving. Jeremiah is very active and loves to be outside.

The Parks close on their house in Irving (see map) on Nov. 8 and will move in the following week. Samuel will continue 2nd grade at Farine Elementary beginning the week after Thanksgiving.

We are looking for former ComChurchers who may be in the area and may be interested in getting together (no pressure). If we find enough, we may have Ross come up for one of his house tours to give us all an opportunity to get to know each other, worship and dream together.

The next several weeks are crazy and stressful, but we are getting more and more excited about what the Lord is doing and what He has planned for us as we venture out. We would love it if you would leave us a comment and tell us what you think about all of this, even if we don’t know you, we’d love to hear from you. Don’t forget, you can also email us at irvingcomchurch@gmail.com.

Off to Irving

Welcome to the blog of the yet to be formed “Community Church of Irving.” We are a team being sent by Community Church of Bryan/College Station to start being church together in Irving and inviting anyone to join us in this adventure called life. None of us are paid staff, we are all living and working in the DFW area. We are excited about what the Lord has planned and will try to keep people updated of what’s going on through this blog.

If you are interested in more information about us and what we plan to be doing, please don’t hesitate to contact us. The easiest way is to email us at: irvingcomchurch@gmail.com

As of now, the Parks plan to close on a house in Irving on 11/09 and move in the week following. The Tiltons will follow as soon as job(s) are found.

Soon we will include more detailed information about who, what, when, where, but for now we’re just getting this blog thing started. So check back soon.
