volunteer of the week MEN ON A MISSION mission team

This week we honor the MEN ON A MISSION team as The Community Fellowship’s Volunteer(s) of the Week!

 

Right now over 14 churches from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Arkansas are represented at our new campus.  This Ministry team, Men on a Mission, is donating their time, skills, knowledge and hard work to making our dream of moving into our new church a reality.

 

The Men on a Mission ministry was formed in 1989 by Christian men who strive to put the Lord first and not turn down a challenge.  Each year these men spend a week together framing church walls and have even built homes for people devastated by natural disasters, and they do these things free of charge.

 

Many of the men are spending the week sleeping on blow up air mattresses and more than one member of the team is camping in a tent to be ready to begin work at 5am and work till 7pm each evening.

 

Men on a Mission has opportunities to witness to others in the communities they visit as they are purchasing supplies and preparing for the work days ahead. One of their best memories is of leading a hitchhiker to the Lord in Fredericksburg, VA.

 

This ministry team feels that it’s a family reunion, God’s family coming together, when they travel to different areas each year to offer their time and talents in the way they are to us this week.

 

Philippians 2:4 --- Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

 

We are honored to announce that the Men on a Mission mission team is our Volunteer of the Week!  We wish to thank each of you all your hard work and dedication to serving our Lord and so unselfishly blessing our church family.

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
