The Past & The Future

On November 18-19 all of us at Community will be making 4 huge commitments for the next two years.

     Every Day With Jesus

     Practical Love

     Intentional Ministry

     Comprehensive Investment

On that same weekend, while we bring our commitment cards, we also want to bring a very special offering. This offering should reflect two very important perspectives.

First, it should reflect a serious level of gratitude for what God has done in our lives. I told you last weekend that 1,433 people have been baptized in our Worship Center since we occupied it in early 2004. Maybe you’re especially grateful for what He has done in your life right here at Community during this exciting time. Bottom line, our gifts should say THANK YOU for what God has brought you through and how He has used this place to provide you a family.

Finally, our special offering should also be focused on the future. Who’s next? Who’s your ONE you’ve been praying for at 1:11pm every day? What child and their family will be impacted as our new Children’s Building is completed and functioning? The future is exciting and I can’t wait to see what God is going to do through all of us. And remember, it will take ALL OF US if we want to see something miraculous!

Please be planning on and praying for your part in this special offering.

“But since you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you—see that you also excel in this grace of giving.” (2 Corinthians 8:7 NIV)
