A HEALTHY CHURCH
Blessings Brethren !
What a beautiful day to attend Sunday Services at that ' Little Church on the River ', Advent Christian Church In Eliot, Maine. And I guess it was very 'appropriate' that Pastor Charlie Downes' message for the day was ' A Healthy Church ' ! ...... certainly no easy task with our culture's spiraling moral decline. Perhaps some day we'll ALL clue in to the fact that when 'The World' takes out G_d, The Evil One anxiously moves right in !
But there I go again, headed off track, and preaching to the choir ! Advent Christian Church & Pastor Charlie Downes....' A Healthy Church, the message was! , .. A Healthy Church, Advent Is ! '
The beautiful thing about Advent Christian and Pastor Charlies Shepherding style that is such a major contributor to the health of this church (which has close to doubled in size over the past 18 mos.) is indeed the fact that Pastor Charlie is a True Discipler. Pastor Charlie well knows, and shows, the Godly Message that there are indeed 'many' parts of the body ! And to maximize the production of the body, each congregant member, each 'disciple' has been blessed with very special Holy Spirit Blessings which must be allowed to and encouraged to, fluorish & contribute their blessings and ministry to the good of 'The Body', and to His Glory !
So Today, we are very Blessed to feature the ministry of Advent Christian Church Member,
Ms. Peg Byrne ! and we have fondly name her Ministry Initiative , ....... " PEG's CLOSET "
We've been able to help Peg distribute the mostly 'new' & 'gently used' clothing
to her heart's desire to reach out to those in recovery. Bless You Peg !
Please contact us if you may have a family, or needing group we could help you bless !
WHY ?
BECAUSE 'TOGETHER' WE BURN BRIGHTER FOR
YESHUA / JESUS
IF you have any unique examples of ministry initiative, or ideas you may like to share with our network of churches, please feel free to reply always !
Please include the ministry of Peg Byrnes to your prayers as she continues to be the light that she is within her walk, and within her burning desire to 'serve the body'. BLESS YOU PEG !
