2019 In Review, and My Prayers for 2020

2019 In Review, and My Prayers for 2020

Tony Miltenberger

I’ll admit that I love the first of the year, not for the idea of resolutions (although I don’t have anything against them), but more for the intentional time, it takes to think back through what was. Like many people in the Dayton community, it was a year full of emotion. From the Dayton tornadoes to the Oregon District shooting, and everything in between - 2019 was a lot. So, as I review the year I thought I would share with you some of the amazing things, some learnings, and what I am praying for in 2020.

At our dinner, in December we were having a conversation about church shopping and one of the couples with children said, “We chose this church because there were so many young families.” Their words hit me like a ton of bricks. In my three years of being at the church, I had never described our worshipping community in that context. When the board and I met for the very first time that was my primary objective; bring in young families.
