CFC Christmas Project

Thanks to everyone that has been bringing items in for the Operation Christmas Child Shoebox project. IMPACT YOUTH will continue to accept items through October and their goal is to fill at least 100 boxes at their PACKING PARTY in November! A list of items needed is located next to the Mission’s wall and items can be placed in or near the totes provided. If you don’t like to shop, you are welcome to make a financial gift and we’ll do the shopping to you! Please make checks out to CFC and write OCC in the memo.

​

Last Sunday at CFC one of our family members experienced a medical emergency during the morning service. After praying for the situation, Pastor Tim asked everyone to quietly exit the building or to gather to continue to pray. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation & those that stepped up to help navigate the situation. We are thankful for our “In-house” medical professionals that responded immediately & that the young man is doing well.

​

How Do We Resist False Teaching?

Can we trust Scripture? Why is God taking so long to set everything right? What should Christians focus on in the meantime? Confusion about how and why God acts the way he does has always troubled the church. That’s why the apostle Peter warned the early church about patterns of false teaching that could lure people away from trusting in God.

In this six-session series through 2 Peter, author and pastor Kyle Idleman will show that regardless of the century, culture, or innovation, we can be confident that God will ultimately accomplish his purposes. As we wait for Jesus to return in judgment and glory, we must make every effort to become more like him in everything we do.
