We talked about a special time on the beach to celebrate the coming of 2008. We sought ideas and plans for the events that would take place that evening. We prayed and sought God’s guidance to make the celebration an act of worship that would glorify Him alone. We are thankful for the opportunity to follow God’s leading even in the smallest of details.
There were bonfires, lumineries, fireworks (planned only by God), great music, worship in dance, testimonies of God’s grace, and a gathering of the people of God. The beach in Bay St. Louis that was a place of unspeakable loss 27 months earlier was transformed into a place of peace and hope and plans for the future.
Enjoy some images from the evening–




I’ve gotta tell you guys that bringing in 2008 on the beach was absolutely amazing. From the music and singing, the dancing, the fellowship and well, all in all…..just being there it was a trip that will never be forgotten.
Being part of something so great and walking back afterwards and hearing the music just echoing in the streets was so powerful, you’ve gotta hope that the people that lived there were in awe that Christian music was being sung on the beach by 1,000+ people.
It was amazing, that’s all I’ve got to say!!!
