Is This What You Are Looking For?

Change is in the air!

Hi All,

Change really is in the air here at renaissanceofasoul.com. We are in the midst of finishing the new website’s basic features, pages and much more. We apologize for the inconvenience, however, after this site is complete, you will be able to contact pd, book him for your church / organization, motivational team building events and speaking engagements, download his talks, videos, and music, browse his writings, check the blog for new articles in religion, technology and more, or purchase some of his materials, creative arts or much more.

So, pardon the mess. We promise that it will be worth your while!

An-na-mazing Summer!

What a BUSY, AMAZING SUMMER!!! (Did you get it? Anna Amazing?!)

It really has been busy and amazing. Here are a few things that have happened since the last post.

1. First and Foremost, Anna Elizabeth Hedrick was born to us on July 5, 2007 at 2:15am. She weighed 7.0 pounds and measured 20.5 inches in length. She is amazing and a miracle. For all of you that know her story and how she has been miraculously healed, we want to say a special thank you. She is absolutely perfect and healthy. So, needless to say, I am a proud Poppy! (CLICK HERE) to see a small Flickr scrapbook of pictures online.

2. Our Humanitarian Aid Team will be going to Nepal in August and they just raised their full amount of money needed for the trip! Congratulations to Seung, Hoang, and Steve for their hard work and determination. And thanks to all of those who participated especially in the Pie in the Face contest and thanks to Su and Fidelis for your gracious acceptance of the pies! And thanks to Daeho for making sure Su’s jar was filled! HAHAHA! We will have tons of pix and stuff later. The Pie in the Face contest raised over $1400 for the trip. Now, they will be able to help serve in a Bhutanese refugee camp in Nepal, which we will also share information about as soon as they return.

3. We have enjoyed 3 wonderful summer cookouts, that Patrick has pulled off perfectly. I can’t tell you how great it is to enjoy a leisurely Sunday and eat burgers and such. The last one is coming up next month and I can’t wait!!!!

4. We hired our youth leaders, children’s ministry leaders and out Tapestry Life Ministry Leader. And they are AMAZING! WE LOVE THEM! I can’t wait to see what kind of ministry comes out of this. We will post another post with their details later.

5. Our Beach Refreshing was definitely refreshing. We had a great time in Delaware and have already planned our next trip and have booked two houses instead of one for next year!

6. Small group ministry is already getting under way, our Bethesda Sunday morning service is GROWING FAST and August GSF is coming up, so things are really revving up for the new school year as well. Don’t miss out!

So, again, it goes without saying, but things are really kicking up around here! Don’t miss out!

What a Great Transition!

fork in the road

Well, that went better than I would have EVER thought! I don’t know about you guys, but growing up in the church, we believed change was the synonym of “church-split!” Right?! Whether it was the carpet, the curtains, who mowed the yard or who led the hymns, change wasn’t a good thing.

Well, in our case, it seems that change is the very thing that’s stirring revival in our hearts!

I don’t know about you guys, but that was the best church has ever been! I truly felt GOD come in as usual and then at a point in the service, it just kicked up a notch! And the worship was so intimate! I am so excited about next week. I can’t wait to see you all again and I really can’t wait to plant the Sunday morning service in May.

Just in case you are reading this post and you have not heard about the change, just see our “Directions” page, (CLICK HERE).

Also, if you are on our mailing list, (Postal Mail, not Email), you should receive a letter with a little personal note from me. If you do not, we don’t have your mailing address. We will be sending periodic mail to your mailbox now that will be encouraging, will help you connect and updates on our events. So, if you don’t receive the email, please be sure to fill out another connect card the next Sunday you attend.

With that said, I hope to see you again this week or very soon. Tapestry, you are amazing! And you are only getting better every day!

Blessings!

pd

Also, don’t forget, the Mexico Mission team is due back today and we MUST pray for them! They need the cover.

The Tapestry has Moved!

Hello Everyone!

It is official! It has become a reality! Every rumor that you have heard has an element of truth to it! The Tapestry is going through some amazing changes!

There are two things that we want everyone to know.

We're Moving!
The first,

We heard your hearts loud and clear and after over 2 1/2 years, we are moving to a new location and a new better evening time. The era of meeting in schools has passed and we now have a wonderful, beautiful church building that we meet in. It is over 3 blocks closer to the metro, is fully equipped with all equipment we need and there will now be minimal setup and tear down. What this will do is allow us to minister to your needs better, longer and without as much stress! Isn’t that awesome! And we now have what many have what many of you have been longing for… More ministry TIME!!!!

So, here are the details:

The Schedule:
6:01pm – Doors Open
6:11pm – Prayer & Preparation
6:24pm – Tapestry Cafe
6:26pm – the Tapestry Service Begins

The Location:
the Twinbrook Community Church Sanctuary
5906 Halpine Rd. Rockville, MD 20851 (CLICK FOR DIRECTIONS).

If you are taking the Metro: (CLICK HERE)
Get off at the Twinbrook Metro Stop, get out on the Twinbrook Parkway exit. Walk out one block to Twinbrook Parkway, stand at the sign, look left and the church is there beside you on the left! It’s that close!!!!

(Please do not send mail here. Our mailing address is still “Tapestry Church, PO Box 2394, Kensington, MD 20891)

Sunday Mornings!
The Second,

We are beginning “Tapestry Sunday Mornings” Services!
the Tapestry Church will begin Sunday morning services on April 8, 2007 for our first trial morning. And will start meeting weekly on Sunday mornings on May, 6, 2007! This will be our official start date. We again heard your cry! We know that there are many families out there that want to come to the Vineyard who just can’t make that hip evening services and need something for the kids as well, so we have started the Sunday morning service and not only that, we chose a place that’s nearer to the families that we are already reaching. We found a great, central location with an amazing artsy feel!

Time:

10:30am until 11:30am

Location:

The old First Baptist Church of Bethesda
(Now, “Church in Bethesda”)
(Address to come in our next post. We don’t want to confuse our Sunday night guys!)

We will give you further information closer to the date, however, if you are interested in hearing more information about this new development, you need to let us know or keep your eyes here and we will give you the information as we get it.

We hope that all of our Tapestry family knows that we love you deeply and that is why we are taking some major steps to make sure that EVERYONE has a place here with us!

Tapestry, YOU ROCK!

Blessings!

pd
