Blood Drive in honor of Catrina Lawless



Monday, August 18th is our annual Red Cross Blood Drive at The Community Fellowship, and we want to invite you to take part in helping make a difference.  It is our desire to make a difference  by demonstrating the love of God to our community.  By giving blood you have the opportunity to not only make a difference but possibly save 3 lives.

We also want to announce that this year's blood drive is being given in honor or our own Catrina Lawless.  Catrina, her daughter Ashlyn and her husband Dennis have been attending The Community for several months.  Catrina and Ashlyn volunteered during our back2school outreach earlier this month well.  She has been battling cancer for sometime and will begin hospice care later this week.

During the blood drive we will ask participants to pray for her, to sign cards, to make financial donations and to give blood in her honor.  Please help us pass the word about this event.

To make an appointment call the church at 276-647-8231 or send an email to cathylorenmartin@gmail.com stating the time you like to give blood between the times of 1 and 7pm.  Thank you ahead of time for honoring Catrina and for making a difference!

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....
