I celebrate 2012 - God is good!!

My name is Travis, I am a grateful believer in Jesus that struggles with control and gambling.   As I look back over 2012, I see God’s hand in everything we’ve done…

·         In January 2012 we had our 6^th CR anniversary, and had a wonderful family testimony that evening. God is good!

·         In April we cancelled CR for the first time in many years due to some fake tornado warnings that never panned out however you never know how the weather will be in Oklahoma.  God is good, and HE was in control, not us!

·         In late April we had our Missions night that we raised over $700 toward missions.  We took a look at many different areas in the world where we have helped start Celebrate Recovery programs.  God is good. 

·         In May we had a wonderful couple’s testimony from Micah and Tara.  Their story was a story where God was in the center.  God has prepared both of them through Celebrate Recovery and we got to hear how their lives have been forever changed because of it.  God is good!

·         In June we sent out 6 people back to Honduras to continue the training and help finish the Ropes Course at Cerepa.  God is good!

·         In July we had our Annual CRT training that was a huge success with several different Churches of Christ in attendance.  We had over 60 People at our Monthly Training.  God is Good! 

·         In August we sent 17 adults and 2 children to the annual Summit in California.  We gained more tools to bring back to Oklahoma and share with our CR Program.  The trip was very important to gain more knowledge, build relationships, and further our relationship with God.  God is good! 

·         In October we had our Annual Fall Retreat at St. Groves Camp in Stillwater.  We had a wonderful time.  Scavenger Hunts, costume party, kids got to Trick or Treat, campfire devotional, and of course we got to worship together on Sunday as a body of believers.  God is good!  

·         In December we had our first annual Healthy Challenges and Healthy Risk night that was a huge success with several people that have never lead before lead in large group.  Also we had a special evening where we collected money for Anna’s House to donate gifts to foster children.  We raised almost $800 in one night for this ministry.  God is good!  

God has blessed our program so much in the past year.  God continues to lead this program.  Yes, we do have leaders that step up every week to serve, but it is all because of what God has done in their lives.  I cannot say it enough...God is GOOD!!!!

Grateful Believer,

Travis
