Mission of the Week: Mexican Evangelism Now

Senior Week at CCYC begins today. Sammie Carter will be driving the bus, leaving at 1:30. Be sure you have your registration forms filled out and signed by your parents before you get on the bus.

There will be a meeting today after church for all volunteers who would teach Wee Worship on a weekly basis. We hope to have 8 – 10 volunteers.

"Two-by-Two Visitation Ministry" will begin tonight at 7 pm. The next visitation night will be June 26. Pray about your involvement in this effort to win the lost, minister to the hurting, and encourage the weak.

Next Sunday night is Youth Night, with John Belcher preaching. Our young people will be leading the rest of the service.

Beginning June 22, we will be having a series of lessons on "Stewardship" (Wednesday nights).

Thanks to all who helped in any way to make VBS possible! We had great lessons, wonderful music, delicious refreshments, fun recreation, and a tremendous group of students, teachers and helpers! Our mission offering greatly surpassed our goal, and will be given to Workers for Mexico.


The Need for Church Growth

Matthew 28:18-20

The primary mission of the church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ. Being a disciple of Christ means you learn of Him, follow Him, and carry on His mission of seeking and saving the lost. Every disciple of Christ shares the task of making more disciples.

I.  The Need

A. John 14:6; Romans 3:23; Romans 6:23

B. Acts 17:30-31

C. Romans 10:1-3; II Thessalonians 1:7-9

II.  The Message

D. Mark 16:15

E. Romans 1:16

III.  The Methods

F. Ephesians 3:8-11

G. Christians must share the message.

H. "Come and see."

If it is true that man’s sin has separated him from God for eternity; and if it is true that God sent His only Son to die for our sins; and if it is true that Jesus Christ is the only Hope we have for forgiveness of our sins, then the task of bringing people to Christ must be the highest mission or purpose that anyone could possibly have in life. And Jesus IS our only HOPE! People need the Lord! If you are not a Christian, we urge you to obey Jesus Christ today!
