The Community Fellowship News

Hey Church Family!

Just wanted to keep you up to date on all that is going on. We had a great time Sunday at our Small Group Bible Studies and at Worship. There were 95 people present for worship. This coming Saturday at 6 pm we will worship together at Spring of Life Christian Camp near Patrick Springs, VA. You won’t want to miss this special time of listening, learning and living what God has given us as a new church family.

Wednesday evening beginning at 6:30 pm there will be a business meeting to discuss my severance pay at The Orchard. I am told there will not be any discussion only a vote of YES or NO on the package that has been offered. If you feel the Lord leading you to go, please do so. If you feel like you should not go, stay away. It is my conviction that each of us do what God lays on our hearts.

Your leadership team will be meeting Wednesday evening to continue praying, planning and preparing to be all God has called us to be. Let one of the team know if there is something you would like discussed there. Further, please pray for a couple matters: a building for us to use and priority on what is important. I am so blessed to have these four people (Cindy, Lee, Tommy and Trey) joining me along with each of you.

Check Out These Two Links: http://www.thecommunityfellowship.org/ and https://thecommunityfellowship.wordpress.com/ where you will be able to get updates about the church in the coming days. They may look the same. This is only the beginning of the new church's presense on the internet. The Community Fellowship is off and running strong.

Remember that it is all about Jesus! Thank you for your prayers, your partnership and your patience. God is putting together His great work in and through our lives.
With GOD as my guide,

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
