2009 Recap

Hey friends! Happy New Years to you and your family! We pray that 2010 brings you lots of happiness, good health, and tons of blessings that come straight from God. 2009 was a great year for us, so we thought that we would recap a little bit of it for you...

Jan-We did "One Month to Live" at The Ridge and it went over so well. People are still talking about it!

Winter/Spring-We saw record numbers of people committing to neighborhood groups.

Summer- We participated in "One Prayer" again, and loved it just as much this year, as last year! We had over 20 people get baptized at the end of it! The Ridge sent 20 people to the Dominican Republic to help build a feeding a center and they started working on building a church.

August-Kate graduated with her Masters in Clinical Christian Counseling, and in October she received her license to practice counseling.

August- Molly turned 2!

Fall/Winter- Kate started her private counseling practice called "Restoration Counseling." The Ridge is still growing, we average 515-550 on any given weekend, in Dec. we had 20 people get baptized. We did a ReThinking Christmas series and gave money to building clean drinking wells in Ethiopia, and also gave money to a mission in downtown Milwaukee. We are still waiting to hear the total on the offering, but we will let you know what it is! Kate joined the staff at The Ridge as the Early Childhood Director. She will be working in the office 3 days a week, and all day Sunday.

We are very excited for 2010! We have a couple BIG announcements to share with you all! One of them will be this coming Sunday, after church. Thank you all for your support (financially and prayerfully), constant encouragement, and love! We feel so blessed and honored to have you all on our side.

Our door is always open for visitors!

Happy New Year!

Love,
The Ferguson Family
