Worship with Your Life

by Joe Webb, Senior High and College Ministries Pastor

I can’t believe that it has been over 6 years! I can’t believe I have had 3 boys! I can’t believe that I have lived in 3 homes, owned 4 different cars, had 3 different job titles and have had 2 different offices. A lot has changed since my wife Kristi and I came to Anderson so I could fulfill the role of Jr. High Director. And let me tell you, it has been wonderful! My life verse since I have been here can be found in Romans 12:1. It says (in Joe’s paraphrase) to live out your life as a worship song to God. It’s been a journey, and I have loved seeing God at work in my family.

Well, now in my journey, as many of you know, the worship song must change. God has been calling me to lead worship full-time with my voice and guitar. I am excited and nervous all at the same time.

That seems to accompany many adventures with God. Kristi, Jake, Luke, Kaleb, and I will be moving to Walla Walla, Washington in mid-November to take on a new role. I will assume the position as Worship Pastor at Blue Mountain Community Church.

I wanted to write to let you know that we love you! We will miss you! We will never forget you! Our time here in Anderson has shaped us, matured us, challenged us and grown us. We want to thank you for believing in us, supporting us, encouraging us, and reminding us of your love on a frequent basis. We truly will hold all of you close to our hearts. If I could say one last thing, I guess it would be: Offer your bodies and lives as a sacrifice to God! This is your spiritual act of worship. I can’t tell you where it will lead you, but let me tell you, it will be an amazing journey with the Creator.

We love you,

The Webbs

Covered in Prayer

by Jeff Matas, Senior Associate Pastor

As a pastor who has moved across the country, I know how important it is for a pastor and their family to be covered in prayer. Please join me in praying for Joe, Kristi and the boys as they prepare for this move; and also for their families back home in Indiana.

A search team is being formed that will lead the process of filling the Senior High and College Ministries Pastor position. If you have any questions, suggestions or comments please contact me at the Church Office. Your input and voice are important.
