IF YOU HAvEN’T NOTICEd, WE’RE MAxEd OUT - BUT WE KNOW WHAT TO dO:
ANd WE’RE CALLING EvERYONE AT SCOTT STREET TO GRAB A SHOvEL ANd GET INvOLvEd
Bursting at the seams. Maxed out. Overflowing. Those are all phrases that
people are using to talk about what is happening at Central these days!
If you’ve been to the Scott Street campus on the weekend over the last
while you’ve probably noticed that we are out of parking, the lobby is
so full you can hardly walk, and when you do manage to get inside the
auditorium, there’s hardly a place to sit.
We’ve been setting record attendance numbers and seeing scores of
people connecting in our discipleship process (LifeGroups, LifeLessons).
Everywhere you go there are people of all ages, and lots of them! We are in the middle of
a very exciting time that is also presenting us with some amazing challenges. God is up to
something!
In January, we walked through a series inspired by the book ‘Greater’, by Pastor Steven
Furtick. One of the principles we discovered was “digging ditches” in order for God to fill
them (2Kings 3:16-20). At Scott Street, we need to work together to dig some ditches that
expand our capacity with parking, the lobby and our kids area. In order to do this we are
launching ‘Operation Dig-A-Ditch’ and we are challenging everyone to dig deep, and extravagantly
give your time, talent and treasure, because we don’t want even one person to miss
out on the transforming power of God in their lives.

You can dig a ditch by attending the early service or using our speedy
shuttle service. In doing so you will create room for new people in our
later service and by using our shuttle system you’ll be out the door and
in your car faster than anyone else in the parking lot.
**Just in case you aren’t aware, we also have two other amazing campuses
(Niagara Falls, Downtown) that you might be interested in checking out.

contriubute that will be rewarding and exciting.

The truth is, we’ll have to make some changes to make room
for growth. If God taps you on the shoulder to dig some
ditches by partnering with us financially to make room for
others, we’d welcome that too.
