This month, our church is having a special focus called “Global Focus 2010 - ASK HIM”, as the next step after our October Focus of the “Big Reach”. We are obeying the Lord to Reach our neighbors and the nations with the gospel of Jesus Christ. We’re not saying it is one or the other, it is both! We know that the Lord has gifted and equipped each member of the church to do His work together (Eph. 2:10) and accomplish the great commission. Over the month of November we have many opportunities for you to meet and pray for direction and empowerment, just as the early church did. This will lead you to ask Him, “Lord, what do you want me to do?” We’ll give you a hint...the answer is not nothing. Then, in December we’re asking you make your commitment to the Lord regarding how much you will give (the Global Missions Offering), where you will go (which 2011 Project), and to whom you will tell the gospel (neighbors & nations)!
There are 5 points of engagement I want to highlight for you:
Friend Day - Sun. Nov. 7, all 3 morning services. Invite a friend to come to church with you.
Passport to the Nations - Wed. Nov. 10 & 17, 6:30pm. Come hear what God did in 2010.
Houses of Prayer for the Nations - Sat. Nov. 13, 6pm. More on this below.
Missions Thank You Banquet - Fri. Nov. 19, 6pm. Share a meal and give thanks to God.
Glorify Your Name - Sun. Nov. 21, all 3 morning services. Worship led by our Choir & Band
declaring his glory among the nations and his deeds to all people!
If you do nothing else in November, do not miss the Houses of Prayer for the Nations. These are hosted by our Adult Bible Study Groups. There will be plenty of homes for you to gather in. Whether you teach children, students, adults, or you’ve never been to one of our Bible Study groups, come and pray in one of these homes. You and your family will be blessed through this interactive time with God and your entire family as you seek His face for what He has for you in 2011.
