Pastor Mark's Weekly Update - October 19, 2018

Put to Death the Deeds of the Body

Sunday morning we will call up Christians to fight the flesh and pursue holiness. Not in order to be justified, but as a sign of our justification. Come join the call and the fight.

Pray and Love

Women, Sunday afternoon you have an opportunity to pray for and show love for one of our members, and one of your sisters in Christ. Diana Tennison will be going soon to Dallas, Texas to prepare to receive a bone marrow transplant. Patti Harris is organizing a time of prayer for Diana at the church at 2:15 in the afternoon, Oct. 21. They will meet in room 200.  Any of our women are invited to attend, but please be aware that you should not attend if you or anyone in your home is sick or has been sick. Before coming into the room make sure you wash your hands, or use one of the sanitizing stations next to the doors. 

Extend Moore

On October 27 and October 31 we have the opportunity to share Christ with community and neighbors. We would love to have you help us serve at one of our booths we will have at the Haunt Old Town in downtown Moore. Several thousand people will be in attendance. We are providing popcorn, and a couple of games as a way to be engaged with the community, to provide our presence as a church to this community, and to share the gospel. You can sign up to help online on the CHBC website, by clicking this link: Extend Moore.

For October 31 we will provide Greet and Treat bags, and we will be having 4 homes for block parties within neighborhoods around the church. You could help at the DeMoss home, the Swain home, the Crosby home, or the Ross home. Or, you could use your home to be a point of outreach to your neighborhood on a night when lots of people are out walking home to home. If you are interested in helping or doing something at your home please contact one of our staff and we will glad to give guidance.

Pastor Mark's Weekly Update - October 12, 2018

1 Church 2 Languages

Did you know that CHBC is one church in two languages?  Every Sunday members and guests of CHBC worship at 10:15 AM in two different languages.  Normally we do that in two different worship areas.  But, certain times each year we worship together.  This Sunday is one of those weeks.  It is harder, but it is worth it, because we express the beauty of diversity that is the nature of God.  We practice preference for one another, and we express that all people regardless of ethnic background or language is a valuable member of God’s creation.  This is a moment to taste of the heavenly experience.  It is not perfect now, but it is a reflection of what will come.

Lord’s Supper

“…do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” (1 Cor. 11:25)  As a church body we attempt to remember the Lord through the Lord’s Supper on a bi-monthly basis.  There is nothing special about the timing, it is just part of our rhythm.  Our desire is to do it often enough to experience the gospel with the physical senses of touch and taste, and not do it so often that we are numb to the freshness of the experience.  This Sunday as we are one church in two languages we will celebrate Christ’s death and resurrection and express our unity that comes only through Jesus Christ by gathering to the Lord’s table together.  All believers present who have followed the Lord in believers baptism are welcome to join us during the portion of the service when we take the Lord’s Supper.
