Laboring at the new campus (on Labor Day

We are blessed!!!  Have you noticed that?  2013 has brought lots of things and blessings into the life of The Community Fellowship.  It is time to be excited and gearing up for a greater future of impacting more lives for Jesus.

This weekend we have a mission team working at our new campus on Saturday.  They are all the way from Greenville, South Carolina, and they will be helping prepare our office building for the needed renovations.  You are needed to help with this project!  Join several of your church family on Saturday beginning at 8am.  There is a lot to be done.  Bring your gloves, step ladders, trash bags and more.  There is also work to be done outside so you can bring your weed eaters and rakes if you would like.

Your help is needed on Monday too.  Are you ready for this?  It's a big deal.  Our office building is getting WINDOWS!!!  From 9am until noon on Monday workers are needed to assist Kasim Adams to put in 25 plus windows.  You need a heart to help, tolerance of a little heat and excitement about a new beginning for our church family.  Bring glovers and stepladders.  If you have questions, see Kasim or Pastor Michael. 

Thanks ahead of time for stepping it up to help our new campus get prepared to be the new home of The Community Fellowship and The Community Dream Center!!!!

This Sunday we will continue our series JESUS IS___________ as we examine some of the characteristics of who God's son it.  Bring friends.  Invite your neighbors.  Even ask you enemies to come worship with us Sunday at 10:10am.  It may change someone's life (maybe yours).

God has set us up to demonstrate the love of God to our community by serving the precious people of Martinsville and Henry County as they have needs.  There is much more to come.  In fact, God is about to blow our minds as we seek Him and serve others.

See you this weekend as work and worship!!!!  It's Labor Day…..

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
