Feeding the Faculty

We are 34 days away from the launch of Celebration Cedar Park! Everything we are doing between now and then surrounds building our launch team and getting the word out to our community. We had an amazing opportunity this morning to feed the faculty and staff at Cox Elementary in Cedar Park.


This school is on the same street as Summit Christian Academy, about four miles down! The President of the PTA at Cox, DeAnna Trujillo, attends Celebration Church and she asked us to sponsor this breakfast. We were so happy to participate and had no idea if we would be able to say anything about the church or if it would just be a matter of a one sentence "thanks to Celebration Church for the tacos" inserted at the beginning of the meal (either way would have been fine).
Well, much to our surprise, DeAnna was able to introduce Pastor Greg and give him the floor. He talked about the new campus, gave the start date (September 20th) and service time (10:45am). They even allowed him to pray for the school year, the faculty, the staff, the lunch lady (as we know Pastor Joe would have done:)), as well as any second grade teacher who might have Brett, our son, in her class this year! Cox has a new principal so it was wonderful to meet her and to have the opportunity to thank this school for all of the great things they do. We anticipate a great year ahead!
