volunteer of the week BETTY HOBBS

This week we honor Betty Hobbs at The Community Fellowship’s Volunteer of the Week!

 

Betty Hobbs and her husband Frank have attended The Community Fellowship for 5 years. Betty volunteers in a number of ministries at the church, both through the week and during our outreach events.

 

Weekdays Betty can be found volunteering in our Clothes Closet organizing donations, which she has often helped to unload and bring into the proper locations. She works diligently to make sure the clothes are displayed orderly so the community can easily find the items they need during the 2nd Saturday Clothes Closet ministry and also during the week when people find themselves in emergency situations.

 

Betty is our back up receptionist, being quick to step in and fill a need whenever the opportunity presents itself.  She serves in our kitchen during outreach ministries and recently prepared many hot dogs and hamburgers during an outdoor event the church hosted.

 

At our annual back2school event Betty typically volunteers on Fridays showing the love of Jesus to the families we are blessed to minister to who have special needs and spend time with them.

 

While she is not serving others, Betty enjoys the outdoors while sitting on her deck. She also likes to sew, spend time with her family, travel and dance with her 10-year-old granddaughter, Emma.

 

Betty’s favorite Bible verse is John 10:10, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.”

 

We are indeed honored to recognize Betty Hobbs as our Volunteer of the Week. Thank you, Betty for all you do to show the love of God to our community!

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....

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 ...
