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 ...

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....
