SPARKS FLY FOR ANNA
This has been a busy and exciting few weeks for Anna Richey. She recently got engaged, and amidst wedding plans, she is also working toward a big finish for her IndieGogo campaign for her upcoming EP. Anna is a spirited solo artist and talented music writer and we love to brag about her, because in addition to her solo career, she shares her talent as a powerhouse vocalist for SPARK! She is a force for good in everything she does and we are excited about her new EP so she can share her music with the world!
A WARM WELCOME
SPARK gained 3 new members this past week! They fit in so well that you probably can't even tell which ones are new in the video below (which was filmed unintentionally while posing for our first group photo). The new members even speak "SPARK," which kind of sounds like happy fleas. Be watching for more details about new members Jason Bromley, Stephanie Goodwin and Jordan Bromley! We are so excited to have them in the group!
SPARK MASCOT
This new little guy joined Alyssa and McKay Crockett's family just before Christmas (and we were lucky enough to have him be part of our Christmas show at the Covey Center)! He is THE most heart-melting creature you have ever seen! His name is Davy. Davy Crockett. Stay tuned for more adorable pictures.
WE ARE ALL HIS
Romans 8:16 - The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. Among the greatest treasures of knowledge that we have been given is this: we are all the children of God. This truth carries with it great blessings. It should guide us in how we treat those around us and in how we view ourselves. Each of God’s children are of great worth with immeasurable potential.
In this painting we see children from many different cultures and backgrounds. They stand with Christ, bearing witness with him that they are children of God. All of the kids look directly at the viewer confident in the joy they feel in the presence of their Savior. When we strive to see others as God would see us, our hearts are softened, our minds are opened and the Spirit comes to dwell with us, bringing peace and joy.
