Pastor Mark's Weekly Update - October 26, 2018

Greet and Treat

Have you ever hoped people in your neighborhood would stop by your house so that you could give them information about your church? Would you be willing to stop by your neighbors homes and give them information about your church, if they were expecting people to knock on the door or ring the doorbell?  Seems too easy, right?  Well, on Halloween many of our neighbors are walking house to house expecting to be received and given a treat.  Others are at home waiting on people to ring their doorbell.  So, as a 12 year tradition we will be using Halloween as a way for CHBC to Greet and Treat our neighbors.  The Children’s Ministry has prepared bags for us to hand out.  Please pick up bags Sunday morning and use them on October 31, as another way we can extend the gospel to our neighbors.  There will be no activities on the campus on October 31, but it will be a very active night of ministry.  Several homes are even doing a small-version block party in front of their house.  As an example, we will be playing games in our driveway and serving warm drinks while giving out candy and our Greet and Treat Bags.

Members’ Meeting

Following the AM worship service on October 28, we will have a brief Members’ Meeting to approve a recommendation for application to Southeastern Seminary for Alex Meyer.

Thanks-for-Giving Banquet

Every year as a way to celebrate Thanksgiving as a church family we host a banquet on the Sunday night prior to Thanksgiving.  This year, that will be November 18 at 5 PM.  Tickets will be on sale starting this Sunday for $9 per person, or a family maximum of $45.  The meal will be a traditional Thanksgiving menu.  We use this opportunity to show appreciation to all of those who serve in CHBC ministries.  Come enjoy a night of fellowship and show gratefulness to all those who serve us.

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.
