| Outreach and Family Life --- Pastor Jonathan Gray A Little Encouragement This time of economic crisis has been incredibly difficult for almost everyone. Watching neighbors lose their homes, being the one who lost your home, struggling to keep our families financial afloat, and wondering where God is in all this. Times like this can be misleading for our faith. It looks like the worst is happening when in fact God has designed these times to produce the best in us. “For I know the thoughts I have toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11 God has said that His thinking toward us is for the best for us not the worst. So let me be encouraged that what seems dark and ominous will give way to the light of the Lord’s will. And His will is focused on what is good for me and for all who are His people. How can I be used right now? I hope that is a question you are asking no matter your financial situation may be. In this season God’s people to more to bless than ever have before. It is my pleasure to be able to provide several opportunities for you to be blessing to someone in need during these trying times. On November 22nd we will go out into the community and show the love of Christ by giving away over 300 complete Thanksgiving meals to those in need of them. We will be sending a team from Christ Chapel to the ACTS shelter to help them feed over 1900 families for Thanksgiving. Look for the sign sheet in the church foyer. The Fellowship If there is one thing that will keep a Christian going in these difficult times it is other Christians. We face so many challenges as Believers and it is our commitment as a church to help you face those challenges and to make certain you are not alone in facing them. To this end we have established several classes in our midweek ministry program to address some of life’s confronting issues. The Financial Management Class – The “Coming through the Darkness” Women’s Bible Study – The “Book of James” Men’s Bible Study – The “Downpour” College and Young Adult Bible Study. They are all on Wednesday evenings and they begin at 7:30 p.m. |
