volunteer of the week MEN ON A MISSION mission team

This week we honor the MEN ON A MISSION team as The Community Fellowship’s Volunteer(s) of the Week!

Right now over 14 churches from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Arkansas are represented at our new campus. This Ministry team, Men on a Mission, is donating their time, skills, knowledge and hard work to making our dream of moving into our new church a reality.

The Men on a Mission ministry was formed in 1989 by Christian men who strive to put the Lord first and not turn down a challenge. Each year these men spend a week together framing church walls and have even built homes for people devastated by natural disasters, and they do these things free of charge.

Many of the men are spending the week sleeping on blow up air mattresses and more than one member of the team is camping in a tent to be ready to begin work at 5am and work till 7pm each evening.

Men on a Mission has opportunities to witness to others in the communities they visit as they are purchasing supplies and preparing for the work days ahead. One of their best memories is of leading a hitchhiker to the Lord in Fredericksburg, VA.

This ministry team feels that it’s a family reunion, God’s family coming together, when they travel to different areas each year to offer their time and talents in the way they are to us this week.

Philippians 2:4 --- Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

We are honored to announce that the Men on a Mission mission team is our Volunteer of the Week! We wish to thank each of you all your hard work and dedication to serving our Lord and so unselfishly blessing our church family.

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan. His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God. Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st. The book is Forgotten God . This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into. All of it is within the Holy Spirit. Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people. It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about. And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts. We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things. It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share. For me C.S. Lewis is one of those. He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class. It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before. He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born. It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian. He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
