Day one of our
mission team working at our new campus was yesterday, and it was an incredible
day with more accomplished than I thought possible. These men are from several states and serving
as volunteers to help our new campus become a reality.
The “Men On A
Mission Team” will mostly likely save The Community Fellowship more than
$70,000. You read that right. These men are using their skill and giving
their time to us be more and better prepared to serve hose in need. That’s about 70 working about 12 hours a day
all week long.
All of us have to
keep some things in mind. First, we all
have skills. Second, we are to use our
skills to serve others. And third, our
skills are to be used to serve and by so doing give glory to God.
Romans 12:7 NLT
If your gift
is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher,
teach well.
Our skills are from
God and to be used by Him. I am grateful
for these men. I draw your attention to
the poem below. May God help us serve
well and use our hands and skills to point to Him.
