the Urban Restoration                                     Edition 5

HAPPY EASTER!

Starting over can be a daunting task. We get stuck in our everyday routines. We buy into the “we’ve always done it this way syndrome” that holds us captive to ineffective living and we allow ordinary activities to dominate our outlook. Before you know it, we have drifted into the land of complacency. However, the courage it takes to embrace a new and fresh perspective can be the difference between living stagnant irrelevant lives and becoming fully alive to the great plan that God has for our each of us. Easter is the radical display of God’s amazing love and the incredible opportunities that we have as believers to begin anew. No matter what our past has been, Christ’ victory over death is our earnest for a better tomorrow in every aspect of our lives!
This Easter represents a significant new beginning for The Urban Restoration. It marks a radical new ministry model, in which we are taking the message of the gospel BACK to the community! We are forging new partnerships with others who share our God given mission to return lost children and families to the plan that God has for their lives. We believe that God has called all believers to live abundant lives. Our new strategy will bring result-driven, Christ -centered programs and activities to targeted groups and communities. We will be more efficient and we will be more effective! We will bring more children to Christ and we believe their whole lives will be better as a result! That is the hope we have because of an empty tomb!
