SEPT 2023
“Finally!”
CHURCH UPDATES
EVAN IS BACK!
September was a month full of transitions. Evan returned from Sabbatical and, as much as I Love LNE, I couldn’t have been happier to hand back over the reign to their rightful Pastor.
With Evan returning, it also meant it was time for me to “say goodbye” as I stepped down from Pastoral responcabilites at LNE in order to focus my attention fully on Bristol. For now, Laura & I will still primarily serve and be served at LNE as memebers, but we now have some freedom to mvoe around, visit other churches, and prepare our new home in Bristol.
Durring the Month of September I contined to work with a consultant to refine the vision God has granted us for Bristol, and using what came from there, I prepared for the offical Launch year of Liberti Bristol! On October 1st some leaders from the communion along with our core team will gather to celerate, pray, and prepare for the road ahead. - I am very excited for this moment. It will mark the announcment of a new assembly in God’s church family; here, but not born yet!
PERSONAL UPDATES
FINALLY! After months of sickness, work, and prayer, little Brynn is finally at a stage of healing. At the end of the month, we fianlly found the right diest for Brynn. We couldn’t be more releived to see her happy and comfortable. She still has to heal and mature before all will be 100%, but we are on the road to recovery! Thanks to everyone who has been praying for her and supporting us.

Liberti is a church in the heart of Bristol with a heart for Bristol — who seeks to live, speak and serve as the very presence of Jesus to our neighbors there.
PRAYER
Would you commit to including Liberti Bristol in your prayers? Would you pray for softened hearts? Would you pray that God would open doors and opportunities for us to be ambassadors for His kingdom? That we would have eyes to see opportunity and the willingness to pursue it — even when it’s difficult?
THIS MONTH
Be in prayer that supporters like you would partner with us to support what God is doing here.
Be in prayer for Laura for high spirits and for stregnth. For Brynn for healing and good health. For me for perseverance and patience.
PRESENCE
We desperately need your prayers, but we also need your presence! Liberti Bristol needs mission-minded people like you; willing to do the work and take the risks to participate with God in the expansion of His kingdom! If you'd like to consider joining our launch team, then I invite you to stop by our house on a Wednesday night. Every Wednesday from 6:30 - 8:30PM, our team comes together as a family — adults and children — for a time of fellowship and prayer. Come meet us and see if this is where you belong!
PROVISION
And finally, provision. Listen, we believe that God will provide for that which He has ordained. Liberti Bristol isn't a project of our own, but rather it's our effort to be obedient to God's call on our lives and to be his ambassadors and priests, declaring the good news of God's Kingdom; inviting others to repentance and to come and see that He is good. And so, we believe that God will provide for us. But we believe He'll do it through people like you! Would you consider being a part of God's provision to us? Be it a monthly, annual or even a one-time donation? We need your help to make Liberti Bristol the church that this neighborhood needs it to be!
