it is time to PRAY

notes from The Community Fellowship (January 20, 2012)

We continue our series called CHANGED, and last week the message was about the spiritual battle that is going on around us.  As we seek God, Satan tries to distract us and destroy what God has already done.  Please continue to seek God, and join us this Sunday as the series continues and we seek God.

Spiritual warfare is happening all around us.  Because God is working through us and making a difference in many lives, Satan is trying like mad to hurt, confuse, and even cripple people.  That is not going to happen as we keep seeking God.
 
Your church leaders and the Dream Center team continue to seek a building for us to use for the homeless ministry and transition/discipleship program we have.  In the coming weeks, we hope to share some of the victories ahead.
 
You are invited and encouraged to be part of the 24 Hour Prayer Vigil for our Dream Center that begins at 6pm Sunday and goes through Monday at 6pm.  Go to this link on FaceBook (http://www.facebook.com/events/343026302382065) to get more information and sign up, or you can sign up Sunday.
 
Pray for Bryant (20 years homeless man we are serving who is currently in the hospital), for Patrick (also a 20 year old homeless man we are serving and is struggling) and others we serve with as well as those who are hurting that come our way.
 
Thank you for praying for Pastor Michael, our leaders and each person who is part of our church family.  This is an important time in the life of our church, and you are an important part of the family.  Keep seeking God and we look forward to seeing you this Sunday!

for more information email info@thecommunityfellowship.org or call the church at 276-647-8231.  The Community Fellowship worships every Sunday morning at 10:10am

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....
