RSCC Family Quarterly Update
Hello RSCC Family!
The start of the school year always brings with it a lot of excitement. There's a return to routines but also an adjustment to a lot of new: New grades, new teachers, new rhythms, and new relationships - all leading to new opportunities to connect with new people in new ways. And we have seen exactly that in the life of our church over the last couple of months. In August we saw the highest non-special event attendance in the history of RSCC. We had 530 people join us for church in person on August 2nd. That is so much more than a number. That is a new person finding a new church home. That is a person finding a new friend that they never knew they needed. That is someone who didn't know Jesus having an opportunity to be told about the grace that comes because of the cross. Our church is actively living out Matthew 28 and the call that Jesus gave to us to "go and make disciples of all nations." Keep going! Do not give up! Every Sunday, if there is an empty seat next to you - pray that God would give you an opportunity to fill it. And let's unite in prayer that just one more person would find freedom and forgiveness in Jesus!
As we wrapped up our David series with a reminder that David's life points us straight to hope in Jesus - we turned our attention to one of the most powerful and profound teachings of Jesus - the Beatitudes. This month we are looking at how these seemingly simple statements are actually earth shattering, life altering truths that turn the expectations of the world on its head and show us what the kingdom of God really looks like. We will be in this series through September, and then in October we will spend four weeks calling our church to a unified way of living. That series will be called "Rhythm: Gather, Grow, Give, and Go." In that series we will explore how RSCC does life together in this rhythm that not only helps each of us deepen our faith and grow our hunger for the presence of God, but also makes our life shine a light into the darkness and draw the lost home to Jesus.
There's a lot happening over the next couple of months between LifeGroups launching, student ministry having a retreat, the Wild, Wild West Trunk or Treat, and much more. Make sure to watch our social media and check our website regularly to stay connected to all that is happening at RSCC.
Thank you for all you do as a part of this church family. We will see you Sunday!

Staffing Update
A growing church needs a growing staff. According to multiple church statistic sources, a healthy growing church needs a staff ratio of 1:75-100 (1 pastor for every 75-100 people) in order to continue to thrive. This helps keep the vision aligned, the mission focused, and the people growing and engaged. That would mean that at our current size, we would need 6 full time staff members in order to keep up with the need. We currently have 4 full time staff. With that in mind, we are currently searching for another full time Pastor to help us meet the needs of our church. They will help provide more pastoral care and shepherding for our church while specifically overseeing all the music, media, technology, and the volunteers that make our weekend services work. The search is ongoing and we will provide updates as they come. Please be praying for this exciting season in the life of our church!
