Since her beginning, The Church at Sun Valley has had the privilege of serving Festival Ranch with positive results. In November of 2007, we hosted our first block party with a tremendous response of 90% of the neighborhood in attendance. On New Years Day, again, most of the families in Foothills attended our BBQ and family activities. Then, in January, Saturday morning Basketball began.
February was the advent of the ever popular Family Movie Night at the park as well as the Thursday play group for kids and moms.
March proved to be a busy and productive time with our Spring Break Sports Camp followed by the great Easter Egg hunt at Foothills Park. Our Easter service also formally launched our new church with a Grand Opening of 175 people in attendance! All the excitement continues through April with the newest activity for the community: 4-4 Flag Football. Each Sunday evening, many families come and play with their neighbors in this well organized league. It continues to prove to be a good time for visiting old friends and making new ones.
The Church at Sun Valley is a church Family doing our part to love God and love our neighbor. The fruit of our love is remarkable and compelling. Smiles and kindness continue to be our billboard. Because of this, it is not surprising when new families and neighbors, many who have not been to church in a while, make the decision to come to our church. It's good to know that we have never asked for money for any activity or event and people notice that. Rather, we consider ourselves part of a larger family, your other family, and we are here for you. May the Lord continue to grant us favor as we serve Him and each other.
