louisville and millersburg

So here’s the scoop: This fall we’re launching two new NewPointe campuses—at the same time! Crazy? Maybe. But we’re dreaming big dreams. In fact, I don’t know of any other churches that have ever launched their FIRST TWO multi-site campuses simultaneously. It’s a huge challenge but we really feel like it’s what God would have us do. We’re absolutely driven to reach people for Jesus Christ.

We’re launching the two new campuses in Louisville and Millersburg. And I gotta tell you, we’re stoked! It is so much fun to be a part of an amazingly big move of God.

You may be asking, why Louisville and Millersburg? I would answer that question a couple ways; first, why not Louisville and Millersburg? Secondly, we’re convinced that those two locations are primed for the “NewPointe experience.”

I talked with several people Sunday who told me they were so excited about having NewPointe open campuses in their areas. They told me that the people they live near and/or work with would benefit so much by attending NewPointe. And they told me that they’ve invited folks to come with them but the standard response is, “I’d like to, but it’s just too far.” And we understand that. It’s really hard to invest in your neighbors, friends, and coworkers, and then invite them to a church that you drive 40 minutes to get to. So…we’re bringing NewPointe to them.

Over the next two weeks, Dwight’s going to share the details. Why we’re launching the campuses, how we’re going to go about it, and how you can get involved. In the meantime, just for my blog readers, here are some of the details:

• The Louisville campus will meet at the Louisville Middle School. The Millersburg campus will meet at West Holmes High School.
• It looks like both campuses’ services will start at 10:30 a.m. each Sunday.
• The music will be live. The experience will be very much like the Dover experience, the main difference will be that the message will be delivered via video on a huge screen.
• Launch date for both campuses is September 13.
• A bi-weekly Bible study has been meeting on Sunday evenings in Louisville for several months with about 70 people attending. A weekly Bible study will begin in Millersburg on June 21.
• There are plenty of opportunities for you to get involved with the new campuses. You’ll get more details each of the next two Sundays.

I can’t wait to rock Louisville and Millersburg with the love of Jesus Christ and the NewPointe experience. It’s gonna be an amazing ride. Hope you’re planning on joining us.
