I am writing to you today to inform you that the Men s IRC67 team is refreshed, re-energized, uparmored, and ready to serve. I am in awe of His power, and His beauty, and His joy, every time I meet with the IRC67 Team. What a phenomenal team of Strong, Solid, Loyal, Loving, Godly, Sharp, and Ready men. We are ready! We are ready to serve the candidates! We are ready to serve each other! We are ready to serve Jesus! We are ready to feed His sheep! I truly appreciate their readiness to serve on Team. So the big question is, are you the community ready to serve? Are you Ready?! Ready to serve the team and the candidates behind the scenes on IRC67?! Ready to bring and sponsor candidates?! Ready to serve Jesus?! As we know, we cannot do this alone - we cannot be effective Christians without each other. The IRC67 Men s Team has been working closely together - encouraging each other, helping each other, building each other up, sharpening each other, and studying his word together. We have also been trained together, and are working together as a cohesive team. Proverbs 27:17, As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. That is our theme scripture for IRC67, Iron Sharpens Iron! The IRC67 Men s Team truly appreciates the readiness of the community to support the weekend. So what is God putting on our hearts today? Readiness - Readiness to say Yes when you receive His call. God loves you and so do I.
