Pastor’s Article
Happy November,
It is the month we celebrate
Thanksgiving, but truthfully,
we should be thankful each
month and each day. We here
at Antioch have so much to be
grateful for that I hope you
will not just wait until the 27th,
but take some time each day of
this month to thank God for
his blessings on you and our
church family.
It has been a busy month as
we have ramped up to Antioch
2.0 and now, we are on the
precipice of a God-sized
vision. Thank you for your
faithful prayers and
commitment to the task before
us. I know God is honored by
what you are doing.
Let me make you aware of a

elsewhere, but I want to call
