It's really a great honor to be with you guys. My wife and our five kids are here. We moved to Phoenix in July and everyone asks was it hot?

No a pizza oven is hot and Phoenix in July is very hot and so we're really enjoying the winter

and as soon as we got here started meeting with pastors around the valley and one of the most extraordinary things I've seen in all the places that I've been is the love, the fellowship, the mutual concern and goodwill between pastors and churches across the entire valley.

And so it has been a great honor and a joy to get to know some of the pastors here and

actually first found out about your church driving up the I-17.

You guys got the big billboard and you got the truck out front that says that you're buying the property

and moving there.

And literally, first time I drove by, it was a few months ago ago I can honestly say I pulled over I

raised a hand because I'm that charismatic and prayed for that piece of

property and prayed for your church and didn't know what God was doing

there but just felt wow what an extraordinary place for a church with all of the cars driving by and

the valley really growing up toward the northwest and all the way from Anthem all the

way down into Glendale and over to Peoria and Happy Valley and

all the people that Jesus loves there and what a wonderful opportunity there

was for that church and then got a call from your pastor and he was kind enough to give me a tour of the property that you all have purchased and there's a lot of work to be done so we're all praying for you and
