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 ...

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....
