WINTER WEATHER and The Community Fellowship

Hello Community Family and Friends -

Our policy is to have worship service every Sunday, but we encourage every one to take the most caution possible in getting to church. We will have our regular worship time at 10:10am Sunday morning and invite you and others to join us if possible.

We also ask that you take some extra time to serve others impacted by the winter weather. By serving others we are demonstrating the love of God to our community. Please pass this info on to others.

Have a great weekend. Stay safe and warm, and may God bless you big time!

With GOD as my guide,

Pastor Michael Harrison

-- James 1:5

PS - the Martinsville Winter / Warming Shelter at the Salvation Army is not open tonight (Saturday, February 20th) as the temperature is supposed to be over 32 degrees. The shelter is to be open Sunday night and the following nights as the temperatures are at or below freezing. Pray for those who do not have a place to stay and especially those who have been served by the shelter this winter season.

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?"

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....
