The Journey has begun!

Posted by Heath Houston on Wednesday January 9th, 2008

After months of planning, the Journey has finally taken it’s first baby steps. It is no longer a dream, it is a reality…a very young and infant reality but a reality none the less.

The plan has been kick-started by efforts to build partnerships and raise funds to support the church for the next few years while it gets on solid footing. We have received both pledges for monthly financial support and one time monetary gifts . We have established partnerships with other churches who plan on supporting us financially and sending workers to help us in the coming months as we prepare for our launch. Though we have received a good first response, we still have a ways to go. We will be speaking at several churches and meeting with many individuals over the coming months asking for financial support .

We have a lot of people ask how they can help. The number one thing you can do is pray. Pray for the following:

  • Pray for the people of the Journey and their leaders.
  • Pray for the people of Mableton and Austell.
  • Pray that God would bring us new people to be on the launch team.
  • Pray that the property we are selling closes soon.
  • Pray that we will be able to raise the financial support we need.

There are other ways to help. As mentioned above we need financial support so let us know if you can help out. We are also looking for individuals or groups who will come up this summer and do some work. We’ll let you know more on this later.

Welcome to The Journey

We are a new church plant on the west side of Atlanta in the Austell and Mableton area. At the Journey, we are trying to re-form the church around the teachings and example of Jesus Himself while building relational bridges to people in the current culture. Out with the self-righteous, judgmental attitudes and the useless religious traditionalism, and in with the fresh wind of the timeless teachings of love and forgiveness, acceptance and repentance.
