It is such a privilege to sit in our monthly Staff Meetings..I can remember sitting in service weekend after weekend as a Member of Flamingo wanting MORE, wanting to make an IMPACT, wanting to get OUT OF MY SEAT, come alongside our Pastors, and be a part of this VISION...the sense of urgency, VERY REAL. I have to pinch myself most days because I am honored to get to do what I do at Flamingo...being called to Ministry is such an honor....even though I knew in my heart, I would be going head to head with the enemy.
Tonight Pastor Troy would remind us to:
- Be authentic in our joy & sorrow with others...don't do life alone
- BELIEVE in your calling!
- Have COURAGE to do the work, and act upon results
- God's calling is on our entire family as even our kids have been chosen for this place & time
- He begged us to GUARD OUR HEARTS (which carry our dream, drive & passion!!)
- TRUST God with our DREAMS!!! (my favorite :)
- Be OBEDIENT TODAY...to be prepared for "picture day"
- Watch out for our enemy - Satan, who wants to DESTROY you (my least favorite)
- Persevere, persevere, persevere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God, help us use ministry to BUILD people, to partner with the lives you entrust us to Shepard to reach their God-potential...give us the STRENGTH to persevere...to TRUST YOU unconditionally no matter what we are facing today, and to be reminded that we were created with purpose and destiny.
Give us the tenacity to LIVE and not just exist. -L

i am so proud of you! keep following your destiny! - mom
are these meetings open to anyone? i would love to sit in them & hear Troys heart in person
Our Staff Meetings are open to anyone who feels the nudge to be part of Flamingo Staff, yes! Whether its paid staff, or volunteer staff, we believe in bluring those lines since our VISION is huge, our resources limited.
If you are interested in being on staff, see one of our Ministry Leaders, or come by Connection Corners on volunteer opps. We have many!!!!
