it's almost time ... 3 days till the work begins


So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.

It is almost time.  At this time on Monday all the Men On A Mission team will he working hard moving toward the completion of our future campus.  This team is composed of men of all ages, many different backgrounds but all have the same goal.

They have come to our town to help us do what God called us to do.  Yes, we are working hard to complete a building, and we are working hard to complete the building so we can pour life in to the people of our community, and beyond.

Will you join the team?  You really, really can.

First, you can (and we beg you) pray.  Pray for the property, the safety of the team, the finishing of each piece of each part of the work and pray that God gets every bit of the glory while we tell the stories of changed lives and expect even more from our God.

Second, you can give (and we ask you to give).  Go to www.thecommunityfellowship.org and click “give online”.  As you go through the process choose “vision fund” as all those gifts go toward the work on our future campus.

Third, get your body over here and help with the work (and there is plenty of space and plenty of work for you to help with).  Whether you are close by or far away, there is still time for you to join us.  Let me know if you want more details.  We need men who will build walls, men who will work on the roof, men who clean us messes and more.  There is a place for everyone.

I cannot wait to share with you each piece of the work next week.  Follow me and the church on Facebook to see the process, and thank you for taking part of this important week at The Community Fellowship!

Nehemiah 5:16  NLT
I also devoted myself to working on the wall and refused to acquire any land. And I required all my servants to spend time working on the wall.

2 Corinthians 12:9  NLT
Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

This is going to be one of the best weeks of our church’s life!  Thanks for joining in.

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
