volunteer of the week JONATHAN NORMAN

This week The Community Fellowship’s “volunteer of the week” is Jonathan Norman!!!

 

Jonathan Norman, his wife Angie and their family have been part of The Community Fellowship family since its beginning.

 

During our back2school Ministry Jonathan volunteers in the Shoe Area making sure the right shoes are selected for each child that is blessed through this event.

 

Jonathan is a Diesel Mechanic and is instrumental in using his skills in our Mother’s Day Car Care Ministry where many women are blessed to be able bring their cars to the church and receive a free oil change and engine diagnostics. 

 

Angie Norman, Jonathan’s wife, describes him as a “Certified Brainiac” when it comes to trucks and equipment.  We are indeed blessed that he uses these gifts to bless our church family as well as others!

 

Our church recently was part of Raceway Ministries, and Jonathan makes a point of always being on hand to set up and take down chairs, serve coffee and minister to others while he’s there.

 

Jonathan has gone on Mission Trips with the church and also spends much of his time at our new campus using his skills as a mechanic as well as doing the work necessary to prepare for us to be able to move in soon.

 

Having found victory in the Lord over and over, Jonathan strives to lead his family in praying together regularly and watching Jesus work 100% of the time, no matter the circumstance.

 

In his spare time Jonathan loves to spend time with his dad, Larry Norman.  He also enjoys spinning wheels and being a dirt bike mechanic for his sons, John-John 11 and Hayden 8.  Jonathan and his wife have been married for 13 years and have never been on a honeymoon and are very happy to be able to take a trip to the beach this next month to celebrate. 

 

Jonathan’s favorite Bible verse is Joshua 24:15 “But if you refuse to serve the LORD, then choose today whom you will serve.  Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates?  Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live?  But as for me and my family, we will serve the LORD.”

 

We are indeed honored to recognize Jonathan Norman as The Community’s volunteer of the week!  Thank you, Jonathan, for striving to show the love of God to our community through your generous service to others.

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
