volunteer of the week BROOKS JONES

The volunteer of the week at The Community Fellowship is Brooks Jones!!!

 

Brooks Jones and his wife, Jessica were married May 12th of 2014.  They have been an active part of The Community Fellowship family for over a year. 

 

Before coming to The Community Fellowship, Brooks served 4 years in the United States Marine Corps. 

 

Brooks is the Mobility Manager for Martinsville & Henry County.  He writes grants and uses money to start and lead programs that help people in our community with barriers in transportation. 

 

During the Uptown REACH event in September, Brooks was instrumental in helping with announcements and being on hand to assist the speakers, volunteers and those that participated in the events.

 

Brooks and Jessica are also valued members of the REACH Team and are much appreciated by those they serve with, as well as those they strive to serve.

 

In August, Brooks was the Leader of our B2K (back2school) Ministry and was hands on during the months of preparation leading up to the actual event where 3000 children received new shoes, socks, back packs, haircuts, clothes, prayer and encouragement for their new school year.

 

Brooks is very excited about our new campus and would love to see a 24 hour church ran for the community by the community, basically a Dream Center in Martinsville.

 

In his spare time Brooks likes to watch sports, be in the gym and spend time with his wife and 6 year old son, Brycen.

 

Brooks favorite Bible verse is Luke 9:23 "Then he said to the crowd, "If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross daily, and follow me."

 

We are indeed honored to do ministry alongside of Brooks Jones and recognize him as our Community Fellowship Volunteer of the Week!  Thank you, Brooks for your service to our country, our church and our Community.

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
