Great Sunday Services....... Faith Alive series



Well we are back at the blogging again here in 2010.





Our emphasis this year is "Faith Alive"





Preaching from Judges this morning the message was about Gideon, "the reluctant warrior".


Faith was realized, accepted and acted upon and God used 300 to route a multitude giving Israel the victory and God the Glory.





Tonights message was brought from Luke 7, Walking with Jesus, Faith Alive shown in the raising of the widow of nains son. One crowd broken and hurting from the death of a son, the other walking with Jesus in anticipation of a move of God. When faith is exercised great things happen. Jesus moved with compassion and stopped the tears of the widow and raised the dead son back to life. Faith moved to action caused the crowd to give honor to God and Praise him. The witness was spread about as some were moved to fear and others moved to faith.





Emphasis is to believe and put feet to the belief. Put faith in action and people will be drawn to Jesus. Jesus said if I be lifted up I will draw all men to myself.





A new sign has been commissioned for Lakeview. Brother Ed one of our newest members is an artist and will be putting our vision on the new sign. I am excited to see it come to life for our new sign.





Tuesday night Bible study we will gather together for a time of fellowship as we complete the purpose driven life study. It has been a great 6 week of study as we read the book by Rick Warren and watched the video series together. 19 people have participated in this 6 week event. Many who are attendees at Labor of the Field outreach. Thanks to Tony and Ken who transport a van full every Tuesday to our Bible Study. We will gather together in the felowship hall to see the movie, "Facing the Giants". This small group grew from 6 people to the number we see today because people shared their faith in Jesus Christ. Thanks to those faithful witnesses for Jesus Christ.

Souper Bowl 2010. Once again we are having a food drive to benefit our local food pantry. You are encouraged to bring in cans of soup or other non preishable food items on Super Bowl Sunday. I will take the cans and use them to make the Name "Jesus" at the front of the church as you bring in the items. Lets have a giant Jesus in cans at the front for our Souper Bowl drive.




and .... Oh yeah... Go Saints...

more later....
