it is #givingTuesday


 

Last week was thanksgiving and ahead is the Christmas season.  The last few days have been touted as the largest shopping days of the year.  Yet there is a day we might miss.


It is today.  It is called Giving Tuesday.  Many non profit organizations have a special request for giving and seeking resources to do the work they are called to.  


I see a lot of through the work that we do.  It is the season of giving, during Christmas, as people are often ready to share and serve others.  Be encouraged to serve and give from your heart.  Many organizations close to me are so worthy of #GivingTuesday …


Consider helping The Community Dream Center which runs two homes for homeless men getting their lives back together.  You can go online to our church website and choose the Dream Center.  (www.thecommunityfellowship.org)


Another is assisting with the warming center of MHC that is open each night that temperatures are 40 or below.  Homeless friends are offered a warm place to stay, an evening and morning meal, transportation to and from the center as well as support to make better decisions.


And another would be to help complete our new campus.  All money given goes to complete the project and get us in the building.  Go to our website and choose the Vision Fund.  Another would be our back2school program or our mission  offering.  Go to the church website.


There are so many other worthy causes asking for your help today.  It is #givingTuesday and each organization survives of such gifts.  Thank you for your support and your gift.  All donations are tax deductible.  Please let me know if you have any questions.


The following verses are my heart for serving others and living with purpose…


Proverbs 31:8-9  NLT

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. 9  Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice.


Consider giving.  It will make a difference.  But even more important, pray for the organizations and needs close to your heart.

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
