Why Pinwheels?
During the summer months we are studying the book of Acts. The series title is “With the Wind.” While creating a design and look for the theme, our team used a windmill in place of the letter “I” in the word wind. The design became alive as Pastor Rick described how we can be just like a windmill in our life. The windmill essentially is just a pole with no power until the wind blows. We need the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives in order to be effective and operate at our full potential.

On July 1, we passed out pinwheels to everyone who attended and used them as another reminder of our need for the wind in our lives. Pastor had people write down an area in their life that they would like to see more power (ie: family life, connected to God through prayer, reading the Bible, overcoming addictions, battling depression, etc). We placed the pinwheels out on the front lawn as a reminder to ask God for his wisdom and power in our lives.
We will be praying over the needs in our church in the weeks ahead. The plan is to keep the pinwheels out on the lawn for a couple weeks.
