back2school celebration (this Sunday at 5pm)

It is this Sunday at 5pm. Please join people from all 6 churches that took part in back2school 2013 as we celebrate what God has done as we serve almost 3,000 students (over 2,000 on the weekend of August 3rd and many since by sharing with schools and others).

It will be at Jaycee Park in Collinsville (103 Parkwood Ct., Collinsville, VA; near corner of Colonial Dr and Parkwood Court; turn east off Kings Mt Rd onto Plantation and turn left onto Colonial).

It will be from 5 to 7pm.

There will be 2 inflatables. A huge obstacle coarse and a big bounce house.

There will be food and you need to bring some. Hot Dogs will be provided by The Community. Please bring the stuff that goes with hot dogs ... buns, condiments, chips, beans, potato salad ... anything you think that goes with it. Plus bring desserts and drinks. Bring it for your family and some to share with others.

That's all the details. Pass these along to others. Let me know if you have further questions. I am looking forward to seeing many people, celebrating what God has done and beginning to plan for back2school 2014.

Thank you again for taking part in this awesome event! There is more to come because we serve a great big God that loves people! Invite friends who love this events and those who helped as we celebrate this event that meets our motto head on.... demonstrating the love of God to our community.

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....
