Reaching out

Maybe this is one way I can reach out to people.
There are people on this planet whom only you will be able to reach, because of where you live and what God has made you to be. If just one person will be in heaven because of you, your life will have made a difference for eternity. The clock is ticking down on your life mission, so don't delay another day. Get started on your mission of reaching out to others now! We have all of eternity to celebrate with those we have brought to Jesus, but we only have our lifetime in which we reach them. "All of us must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent me, because there is little time left before the night falls and all work comes to an end." Matthewe 16:18 (TEV) If you fail to fulfill your God-given mission on earth, you will have wasted the life God gave you. Paul said, "My life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus - the work of telling others the Good News about God's wonderful kindness and love." Acts 13:22 (NLT) If you want to be used by God, you must care about what God cares about; what he cares about most is the redemption of the people he made. He wants his lost children found! Nothing matters more to God; the Cross proves that. I pray that you will always be on the lookout to reach "one more for Jesus" so that when you stand before God one day, you can say, "Mission accomplished!"
(Rick Warren) If only people know how breathtaking the bible described heaven and how awesome it is to be reunited with our Father, I know people will immediately want to experience that second life. Revelation 4:2-8 (New International Version) 2At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it. 3And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and carnelian. A rainbow, resembling an emerald, encircled the throne. 4Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and seated on them were twenty-four elders. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads. 5From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits[a] of God. 6Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back. 7The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. 8Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. Day and night they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come." It's not just about heaven, it's also about having a real relationship with Him at present. God accepts everyone, no matter what your past is..or who you are at present. CCF Worship Services St. Francis Tiangge, Mandaluyong 5th Floor Auditorium 8:00-9:00 A.M. 10:00-11:30 A.M. 12:00-1:30 P.M. 3:00-5:00 P.M. (Filipino) 6:00-7:30 P.M. Youth Services JZONE (High School and College) Saturday 4:00 P.M. Thursday Night Devotionals (Singles) Thursday 7:30 P.M Nag-promote haha. If you're interested, let me know. What to expect... 1. There is no complicated liturgical program. Each worship service usually begins and ends with singing (we use contemporary music), with the Sunday message in between. Someone also comes up to tell people about how God has been working in their lives. That’s it. We focus less on rituals and more on learning about God’s Word – how to understand it, and how to apply it to your life. 2. There is no dress code, no need to feel self-conscious. Just come as you are. 3. You are not obliged to give to the church. We don’t even pass around collection baskets during the service, so nobody feels forced. God would rather that you were cheerful about it (2 Corinthians 9:7). When you do feel moved to give to the church, you’ll find a Tithes and Offerings box near each entrance. Or, you can give online. 4. Worshipers with special needs (e.g. in wheelchairs) have a reserved area in the Auditorium so that they can participate comfortably. Just ask an usher to show the way. 5. Parents with small infants have seats in the Infants’ Room on the fifth floor, where they can hear the word without worrying about disruptions. 6. We have different Sunday School classes for children of all ages. Toddlers have a safe place to play and learn on the fourth floor, while bigger kids will find their space on the third floor. 7. A qualified staff is standing by, should you need medical assistance during the Sunday activities. 8. We want you to feel at home, especially if you’re joining us for the first time. Come to CCF on Sunday, meet new people, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. We actually welcome them, just like we welcome you. After the service, you can go to the Mini-Theater on the fifth floor to ask for answers, prayer, and counseling. See you around! http://ccf.org.ph
You have NOTHING to lose but EVERYTHING to gain.
