LBC Weekly SPARK – September 22, 2010

Dear LBC family and friends,

I hope you are doing well and walking in the Lord. I’m so excited as this is the first week for our regional flocks to meet! I know many of you are just as excited because of how encouraging flock groups have been in the past. I really think these will be great times of fellowship to sit together and talk about God’s Word. Let’s really make the most of these times and look to bless one another as we meet.

The regional flocks meet this week at various homes around San Diego and at various times. Here is a breakdown of the different flocks meeting this week:
