Blue Oval City Church Plant

We pray this message finds you well. It is a joy to connect with over six hundred individuals and families through this newsletter, and we are deeply grateful for each of you. Our prayer is that the Lord would richly bless you and your family.

God continues to work in remarkable ways, faithfully guiding each step we take. As we plan and look ahead, we are committed to seeking Him in all things. While we are making preparations, we desire to move forward only as the Holy Spirit leads and confirms each step.

It has been such a joy to begin preaching in our living room to the launch team for the past month! We are studying through the book of Acts. I literally cannot wait for Sundays. These people are incredible!

Worship Leader

As the Lord continues to build this church, we are prayerfully seeking a worship leader to serve alongside us. We are looking for someone who has a heart for the Lord, a love for the local church, and a desire to lead others in Christ-centered, Spirit-led worship.

If you or someone you know may be interested, we would love to connect and begin a conversation. Please join us in praying that the Lord would clearly lead the right person to serve in this important role.

Building the Launch Team!

The Lord has recently brought two more wonderful families to join us, and we are deeply grateful for all He is doing. We are also currently connecting with three additional families and are encouraged by how He continues to provide and grow this work.

As we look ahead, we are seeking to continue building our Launch Team in preparation for the church’s beginning. If the Lord has been stirring something new in your heart, we would encourage you to spend time in prayer, asking if He may be leading you to join us in this mission.

The first picture is of Tim and Mary Gray. The Lord recently brought our paths together, and we are truly thankful for His provision in connecting us.

The second picture features longtime friends, the Sanders family—Robert and Michelle. It has been a joy to reconnect, and we are excited to see how the Lord continues to work through these relationships.

If you are interested, have questions, or simply want to learn more, please email me at: derekewalt@gmail.com
