Eternity + Jefferson City, Missouri

For every parent out there who has a desire to be a better mom or dad, you’ll want to be sure and check out the audio from a Biblical parenting conference that was recently held in Seattle, WA by Ted Tripp.

Tripp is the author of a phenomenal book that every parent should read entitled “Shepherding A Child’s Heart” and this conference will give all of us pheonomenal insight into how to guide and shepherd our children to see God’s glory.

You can find the MP3’s in our learning section at:

The Jefferson City News Tribune was gracious enough to do a story on our ongoing partnership with East Elementary and some of the needs that we were blessed to meet there.  This has been a great partnership and will be getting even better in the days ahead.  A special thank you to Angie Hutschreider at the Tribune for the great article.

Recently, Eternity decided to partner with East Elementary School in Jefferson City.  East is just a couple blocks away from where we are currently meeting in the Stained Glass Theatre and we felt that this provided us a good place to start in showing Christ’s love to our city.  We were able to meet East’s needs by providing over 70 pairs of gloves and mittens, 20+ pairs of sweatpants, a few hundred pencils, airbeds, blankets, and more.  Their principal, Julie Martin, sent us a wonderful thank you note and we wanted to share it here.   We look forward to many years of partnering with East and it’s been a very good beginning.

Well…technically it began a long time ago, but we’re excited that Eternity (the church) had its first core group meeting last night at the Stained Glass Theatre in Jefferson City. Before moving on, we want to express our heartfelt appreciation and excitement that the Stained Glass Theatre has agreed to allow Eternity to call the theatre home. If you want to check out what our digs look like, you can check out a host of digital photos here. 

For our first official gathering last night, we focused on “What Is The Gospel“..It was amazing to be with the people who have committed to Eternity. If you want to check out some photos from last night including what we came up with as a definition of the Gospel, you can see them here…God is doing something incredible and we would love for you to be a part of it as well.

Make sure to join us on Sunday night at 6:00 pm at the Stained Glass Theatre…this week we’ll look at what it means to have a Biblical understanding of conversion.

Last night, Eternity held it’s second vision meeting at the Stained Glass Theatre in Jefferson City.  After having 17 in attendance in late July, we didnt’ know what to expect for last night.  I think it would be safe to say that our time together far exceeded expectations.

First off, we would like to say a true heartfelt thank you to the folks at SGT for allowing us to host our meeting in their facility.  A big thank you also goes out to McAllister’s here in Jefferson City for their generosity and help in providing food for the gathering.

WIth 32 in attendance last night, it would appear that Eternity is off to the races.  With several families not in attendance due to unavoidable circumstances, it would appear that God is powerfully at work in the life of our young church plant.

We now begin looking forward to our first core group meeting on Sunday September 28th.  We’ll begin a six week series on the identity of Eternity and in-depth exploration of our values.  If you were unable to make either of the vision meetings, don’t sweat it.  Mark your calendars for our first core group meeting and come be a part of what God is up to here in Jefferson City.  We’d love to have you.
