Title: Come Together! Post by: Freak on January 07, 2005, 11:33:10 PM Well, our church is doing this thing called "Come Together!". It is where we are calling all the churches in our community to come together in biblical unity, put aside our differences and reach out to our community. We have a service the first Friday of every month. It is held at one church, with the pastor of another church preaching. We rotate churches and pastors. Tonight, the service was held at an Assemblies of God Church, with a United Methodist pastor preaching. The call from God was heard and accepted by a Southern Baptist church (my home church family). Members from all three congregations were present praying for biblical unity. I come from a town where there is a lot of division. The community is around 7000 people, and we have over 25 churches. Less than 25% of the community attends church regularly. (That's not counting how many are authentic believers of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is probably much less!). So that's what God is doing. I am just on the music ministry team. I probably shouldn't say "just". It's a big responsibility. I play bass and sing with my pastors wife who plays guitar. Most of the time I sing lead cuz she's still learning, so that's kewl. This is just getting started out. I can't wait to see what God's up to next! So that's it! :)

I myself preach in other church sometimes. So this way we can grow up together in our faith. It is really blessing. Title: Re:Come Together! Post by: Sweden on May 08, 2005, 03:03:50 AM ...
