Hey Everyone...
EncounterFest2 went Great !!!!

We want to thank the boys and Girls Club of Cypress. We had such a great time serving them, their families and staff. There was a lot of good food, good fun and good conversations.
God is definitely at work in the community and it is awesome to be a part of it!

Lets Do It Again!!!

There is also more we can do to serve the Boys and Girls Club.

ALSO........... Don't forget to bring all the bottles and cans you can get your hands on so we can provide as many warm thanksgiving meals as possible to the homeless in the area.
It is a good way to GIVETHANKS to God !!!

The guys are almost finished and back from Honduras so keep the prayers rolling for them cause they are very important. They fly back on Saturday Night.

Also pray for the families of the men in Honduras...they only have a bit longer without husbands and daddies.

The Women's Retreat starts today and goes thru the weekend, pray for that was well. It should be a great time for them....pray for the solo dads...I KNOW they need the help...:o)

HEY...ALSO, this is from Rhonda about Out of the Darkness. We are supporting it through Encounter. So click the links and check it out....It would be wonderful to be involved as well.

The walk is on October 10th. The lady at Out of the Darkness is very excited about volunteers! She said the best thing to do is to register and note that you want to volunteer. You can also volunteer and walk. She needs people for 6:30 am set and registration.Here is the link....

2009-09-21T08:28:00.000-07:00

HEY YOU...

SO HERE IT IS:® Friday Night Brian taught about Luke 6:11-17. We looked at the compassion of Jesus and how He was willing to touch others considered “unclean”. We looked at what Jesus does out of His compassion and love for people.

Question: How has Jesus’ compassion impacted your life and are there things you can do differently to share Jesus love and compassion with others? Please comment.
