The Latest Happenings

Hi there. I thought it was well past time to update the blog with some of the latest happenings at Logos. We've been going through some transitions lately. Here are a few:

1. Two Logos folks (Nnena & Joseph) returned back to their schools (Mercer Law School & Brewton-Parker, respectively) after spending the summer with us here in Atlanta. We enjoyed our time with them here and now pray for them as they seek to share Jesus with the students around them.

2. At the end of August, Heather followed her lifelong dream of moving to New York City. She is now living in Brooklyn, working at a coffee shop on the NYU campus, and meeting with a simple church seeking to infiltrate NYC with the love of Jesus. You can keep track of Heather's journey at her blog .

3. Danny has taken a consulting job to help make ends meet financially for his family. Although this usually takes him out of town during the week, he's still hard at work with his normal Logos responsibilities.

4. In October, we'll be bringing together our groups with some other simple churches for a time of worship and celebration. This gathering will become a monthly occurrance. We'll be sharing more details on this as the time draws near.

So change has been the norm for us lately. Luckily, one of the strengths of the way we do church is our adaptability. The more complex something becomes, the more difficult it is to adapt to change - and the church must always be able to adapt to the constant change that is life. Adapting is rarely easy and can often be confusing and uncomfortable, but if the church is to be an effective missional agency, it must learn to embrace change and thrive in uncertainty. Thank you so much for your continued prayers.
