Spirit Check!

Not too long after I started as the pastor for the Oakfield and Tabor churches, I found about the "spirit check." In July, the Oakfield church does some special things to recognize and remember the tornado that went through the community in 1996.

There is a verbal exchange that became a part of the church as a result of that event:

L: Spirit check!
C: Praise the Lord!

There was something about today's worship service that move someone to call out for a spirit check. You could tell that the Spirit was definitely with us for today's service. We had a spirited celebration of Christ the King Sunday. We also have an attendance of around 50 people, many of whom were visitors. It was definitely a time to be excited for Oakfield!
