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 ...

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....
