This Sunday after church we will be having a Partnership Party for anyone interested in learning about officially partnering with Netcast. You do not need to register for this event as we want to make it as easy as possible for you to join us.
No matter how long you've been attending Netcast, if you have any interest or curiosity about what partnering with Netcast Church looks like, come on out and party with us as we talk about this! There will be plenty of space, plenty of babysitters for kids and plenty of food.
The party will be held at the home of Robert and Sherry Gould and there is no cost. I look forward to seeing you there.
Pastor Matt

Netcast Church (Launch Update)
At this point I think that it is easy to say that we are all in awe of what God is doing here in Greater Boston. We are clearly wrapped up in something much bigger than we ever would have imagined. Our great God, by his Power, Might, and Grace; is doing something that I have never seen done before. Our goal has become less of "Plant Netcast Church" and is becoming more of "Keep up with the Lord because He is moving fast."
As most of you have been following, Beth and I got here only 4 months ago to plant the gospel in Greater Boston, starting in Beverly MA with the hopes of seeing 100 churches planted in Greater Boston in 40 years. We started with a "Vision Meeting" in our living room and then began to build a team. After a few meetings we realized that this is moving faster than we expected and originally desired. We out-grew our home in only a couple of months and just had our first Sunday Service.
This church would not be remotely possible without the incredible people who have journeyed with us along the way for almost 4 years. We are seeing the fruit of your faithfulness everyday as people are being broken of sin and falling in love with Jesus. Disciples are being made and God is using people like you and me. On Sunday; We had to keep adding rows and rows as people flooded in? I was told that there was a total of 120 adults and children who visited. We only set out 70 chairs, so that is way more than we ever expected. Some of those people were "well wishers", but most of them weren't. The majority of the people were from our community and Christ is adding to our numbers daily.
I have already gotten emails and messages from many people. People want to be baptized, people re-dedicated their lives to Jesus, others want to get plugged into a small group and some more want to partner with us. More than numbers or anything else, it is most exciting to see God working in the hearts of people. All of this would be worthless if we weren't drawing closer to Jesus as he continues to reveal himself to us.
Please know that your financial support and prayer support has gone further than any of us could have dreamed. Continue to pray for us as we work towards assimilating some of this. Please also pray that we pursue humility and never take any credit for what is happening. Pride got Lucifer kicked out of heaven and it is the same temptation that we face everyday. Our desire is not to grow a huge church, our desire is to reach as many people as possible with the life changing message of the gospel. God gets all the glory and praise. Bless his name. He is worthy.

Netcast Vision Party: Tell us your thoughts!!!
I don't know about you, but I sensed the presence of God at my house on Sunday night. The two scriptures that come to mind is in Matthew 26 where Jesus says "I will resurrect and go ahead of you." and in Nehemiah 2 where Nehemiah says, "The hand of the good God is upon me and given me favor." It is evident that as Beth and I were praying for you, before we even knew who most of you were; God had been at work. He had gone before us preparing your hearts and situations for this ministry. Having talked to many of you, it is clear that the hand of God is upon Netcast. He has placed YOU, where YOU are, on the North Shore in October 2010, in the situation that YOU are in, so that "Man would seek God and perhaps find Him"; like we talked about out of Acts 17.
I'd love if everyone would share something (even if its just sentence). Please ask questions, share a thought about Sunday, or poke fun at how I talk to much; haha.

The first 30 days for Netcast (Vision Party)
We are finally getting all settled into our new home in Beverly. It has been amazing to see all the neat stuff that God is already doing. The small article that the North Shore Magazine was doing on us has now turned into the "Featured Article" of the magazine and includes photo's on the front cover. CRAZY!!! Not to mention that this is the most distributed local magazine on the North Shore.
We also have been meeting so many people. Beth and I have gotten to know some awesome people who have similar visions pertaining to the local church. We'll be having our 1st Netcast Vision Party; This Sunday 10/10/10 @ 5:30pm - 7:00pm. We'll provide dinner, a chill atmosphere and I'll share the vision of Netcast for about 20 minutes. I'll give info on where and when we'll begin meeting as well as some upcoming events. We will be meeting at our new home and would love anyone who is local to visit with us.
The address is:
15 1/2 Pierce Ave
Beverly, MA
01915
Please spend 10 seconds as you read this and ask the Lord to do big things this Sunday night. Looking forward to seeing who shows up and what happens.
