Support Sarah Fergus!

Here's a note I just sent to the church about Sarah Fergus. Check out her blog here.

Hello Everyone,
Sarah Fergus and I have been e-mailing back and forth over the last day, and here's where she's at:

1. She has bought her tickets, and she will be leaving the country--Lord willing, of course!

2. She does have enough support to go, but she really needs another $100-150 per month of support to be at an optimal level. Please pray about joining her support team, and feel free to forward her blog address to anyone who might be willing to lift her up in prayer or offer financial support (sfergus.aimsites.org--Sarah's contact information is on the blog-site).

3. Please consider coming to Sarah's send off party from 4-9 p.m. on December 29 at the home of Dave and Susan Fergus (19352 Carson Cir NW, Elk River, 55330).

4. Please attend the worship service on December 30 where we will be commissioning Sarah for the glory of Christ.

5. Please put Sarah on your prayer list and intercede with her as she gives her life for the glory of Christ and the Bara people. I pray that our church will have a real sense that WE are on a mission with Sarah and AIM in Madagascar!

Thanks so much for reading this note, and for your sincere love for the Lord and his work in the world. Oh how I pray that the Lord will increase the fruitfulness of GCF so that we can send many more across the street and around the world for the glory of Christ!
With joy and hope in Jesus who gave it all for us,
Pastor Charlie

To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord, by George Muller

By Anonymous
To Have My Soul Happy in the Lord By George Muller “It has pleased the Lord to teach me a truth, the benefit of which I have not lost for more than fourteen years. The point is this: I saw more clearly than ever that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not how much I might serve the Lord, or how I might glorify the Lord, but how I might get my soul into a happy state, and how my inner man might be nourished. “I saw that the most important thing I had to do was to give myself to the reading of the Word of God—not prayer, but the Word of God. And here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God so that it only passes through my mind just as water runs through a pipe, but considering what I read, pondering over it, and applying it to my heart. To meditate on it, that thus my heart might be comforted, encouraged, warned, reproved, instructed. And that thus,...

Catechisms: Building a Heritage of Sound Faith - By Pastor Kevin Feder

By
This is an article I (Pastor Kevin) wrote in 2005 and updated in 2017. It is featured in a new resource available through Children’s Desiring God called Discipleship through Doctrinal Teaching and Catechism by Sally Michael.  It is our desire to encourage parents to use a children’s catechism as a tool in building and strengthening faith in children. A simple definition of a catechism is “organized teaching.” Catechisms are not the only things that can or should be used to instruct the next generation, yet they have useful purposes. Listed here are ten specific benefits a catechism can uniquely offer. Hopefully these ten points will help parents understand how a catechism can be effectively used in their families. 1.  A catechism is a very clear and complete gospel message. A catechism is, among other things, a very clear and concise gospel message to children. Everything a child needs to know for salvation is embodied within a catechism. The gospel is truly ama...

We post these worship songs leading up to the worship service so that parents may listen to them in the house or in the car within the days leading up to the worship service.
