The Mission of CHBC – Exalting Christ

We should not think of this part of our mission statement as a word about singing. We do exalt Christ when we sing songs of praise or hymns reflecting biblical truth, but public gathered worship is more than singing, and exalting Christ is more than our public gathering. We also exalt Christ as we pursue personal, practical holiness. The Bible says in John 14:15, ““If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”

 

AWANA Training – August 10 @ 6PM

If you are a church member who would like to serve in ministry through AWANA please attend the AWANA Training and Leadership Kick-off next Wednesday night in the Worship Center. If you are already serving in this ministry, then you must attend this meeting in order to be prepared for the start of a new year for AWANA. “The mission of AWANA is to equip leaders to reach kids with the gospel and engage them in lifelong discipleship.” (AWANA International website).

 

CAMP BIG Enough – August 7 @ 8:45 AM

CHBC preschoolers who will be turning 4 years of age are introduced to what it is like to attend Big Church. Our preschool ministry prepares moms and dads with resources and tools to navigate this big change in the life of your child. This is a step worth celebrating, and we are excited to help with this transition. Camp Big Enough is Sunday, August 7 at    8:45 AM.

 

EXPLORE CHBC – August 7, 14, & 21 @ 9 AM

Membership in the local church is not attendance without accountability, but commitment with responsibility. Membership matters, and we want to help all members of CHBC to find their way into meaningful community at CHBC. Our Explore CHBC course is designed to explain the importance of membership, introduce you to the history and vision of CHBC, and connect you to ways to love and be loved by the body of Christ at CHBC. This is a three-week course taught by our Senior Pastor and meets in the church conference room. No pre-registration is necessary. Any guest is welcome to attend.

 

120th Anniversary – August 7, 2022

We will mark our 120th Anniversary as an organized, local body of believers on August 7th. The day will include a regular morning schedule. Special displays will be in the hallways to be seen before Sunday School, before Worship, and following Worship. We will have some moments during the morning worship service to mark this special occasion. We will also be serving a catered lunch following the service.

Scripture of the Month

Hebrews 4:16, “Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Each week CHBC says aloud a passage of Scripture during our morning worship gathering. This is done for two reasons. First, we are commanded in Scripture to encourage one another with the Word of God. Second, we want to emphasize the spiritual discipline of Scripture memory. Receive a text to your phone with this verse set to music by texting the word “CHBCVERSE” to the number (302) 207-SONG (7664).

 

Prayer

Prayer begins with praise to God who hears and answers prayer. Adore the One who hears us and speaks mighty things.

Jeremiah 33:2-3

“Thus says the Lord who made the earth, the Lord who formed it to establish it, the Lord is His name, ‘Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’”

The Mission of CHBC – Equipping Believers

The church exists to teach people to follow Jesus. God’s pattern for producing disciples is displayed in the family structure created in the book of Genesis. Parents who have children, who are commanded to teach them and train them about who God is, how to have a relationship with Him, and how to honor Him as Lord. The New Testament church uses that pattern as the epistles teach us we are the family of God, we are to spiritually reproduce, and spiritually parent younger believers, who are all brothers and sisters in Christ. Parenting by teaching the Scripture and living as a model of following Christ. This is why it is important to remember, the church is not a building people meet together in, but a people who gather to worship Jesus Christ as Lord.

Love Your Neighbor – Little River Park

Sunday night at 5 PM we will gather as a church body at Little River Park in Moore, at the south end, next to the splash pad and playground. We will sing, have a devotion, and serve hotdogs. Our desire is to meet out in public and minister to those around us by inviting the children and families at the park to have a hot dog with us. Come enjoy fellowship with one another so that the world can see we are disciples of Jesus. “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35)

Scripture of the Month

Romans 4:20-21, “yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not waver in unbelief but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.” Each week CHBC says aloud a passage of Scripture during our morning worship gathering. This is done for two reasons. First, we are commanded in Scripture to encourage one another with the Word of God. Second, we want to emphasize the spiritual discipline of Scripture memory. Receive a text to your phone with this verse set to music by texting the word “CHBCVERSE” to the number (302) 207-SONG (7664).

 

Prayer

Pray for one another to press on. Some are tired, some are discouraged, some have been disappointed, and some have failed. Pray for one another.

Philippians 3:14

“I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
