OUTREACH IS NOTHING WITHOUT GOD IN THE MIDST

Michael Ryan

This summer, Bethany Place is hosting many great events/outreaches to serve our community.  Up first is the Block Party (July 15th).  Next we have the Student-Led VBS (July 24-28), and finally, Sports Camp (July 31-August 4). We must remember that outreaches are nothing without God. As the body of Christ, we need to remember to pray for each outreach.

The purpose for the Block Party is to serve our community in a fun way by letting them know about upcoming events. We are praying for 100 to 200 non-church members to participate. If you feel led to help make this event great, please contact Brooklyn Mazza.

Pray for the Student-Led VBS as students continue to make preparations to reach out to the community.  Vacation Bible School touches the lives of many young people and we pray God will use this event to bring the gospel to the youngest members of our community.

Sarah Moore and Bethany Egland are continuing to organize all that goes into our Sports Camp. This energetic event reaches our athletic neighbors with the gospel, while sharpening their athletic skills for that sport in an environment that is exciting to them.  Ask God to raise up the volunteers needed. Contact Sarah Moore if you are able to help serve.

I have been hearing about a lot of Spiritual Warfare taking place at our church. This actually excites me, because Satan does not attack when the church is doing nothing. Members of Bethany Place, I ask you to pray together for these events. Help to attract attention by inviting neighbors, building bridges, communicating Christ. Above all, pray that in all we do, we bring glory to God and lift up the name of Jesus.
