With the fall season comes the regular start to a new season of ministry, including launching new ministries and kickoffs to existing ones. In this season, volunteerism has been accelerated, leaders are being trained, children, youth and young adults are being served, small groups are being launched and so much more; all with the purpose of serving and reaching as many people as we can with the love of Christ.
During this time as well, three of our CPC families have lost loved ones. So many of you have picked up a serving towels and with great love and compassion you have served these families in any way you could. These families have been so appreciative and comforted through your serving.
All this reminds me of the mission statement of Jesus when he said: "For even the Son of Man came not to be served
but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many." Mark 10:45
.......And as we heard yesterday, Pastor Jabin talked about paying attention and being willing to "make the most of every opportunity" Colossions 4:5 .......to make a difference in someones life. This includes opportunities to serve Jesus by serving others.
Thank You CPC
Pastor Dave
PS: I read the story about a businesman who asked his Bible study group, "How can you tell if you have a servant's attitude?" He answered the question himself: "By the way you react when you're treated like one. (Something to think about....)
