feeding the hungry BEGINS TOMORROW

Community Family -

Tomorrow opens a new door for our church family as we begin feeding the hungry.  We are now 3 years old and have seen God do incredible things at The Community, but I believe we have not seen even a little piece of what God is going to do.  Our theme for 2010 is "DREAMS COME TRUE" and just one part of that is our feeding ministry.  Will you be part of this?

Tomorrow from 9 until noon at the church we will be having some what of a soup kitchen.  This is the 2nd Saturday and takes place during our clothes closet ministry (and ever 2nd Saturday at The Community).  We will also be feeding every 4th Saturday from 4 to 6 pm.  That one is followed by our 4th Saturday night worship service at 6 pm.

Please help us get the word out about this ministry to those in need and to those who want to serve.

Next weekend, Sunday January 17th, we will celebrate and share what God is doing as we end one phase of feeding the homeless in Roanoke and begin feeding here in Collinsville.  Next Sunday is our last trip to Roanoke, and we will also deliver our Christmas presents of hats, gloves and scarfs.  Plan to be at worship to help us celebrate, to hear what God is doing, to share what you have seen God do, and go with us to Roanoke as this part closes out and opens us more opportunities in our community.

God is good ... all the time.  We are seeing this as we demonstrate the love of God to our community. So I ask you: how will you demonstrate His love this weekend?  Hope to see you tomorrow at our feeding ministry and Sunday for worship.  This will be a great weekend!

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

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
