Great Commission Women National Project 2013-2014

Back in September, we re-launched our Women's Ministry. Great Commission Women is what our Headquarters is calling our Women's Ministry. Our women's ministry focus on being Women of God as well as missionaries. 


Below is a summary about our National Project that we are participating in. 

Our National Project “Let’s Have Coffee” is all about building relationships with resistant people through prayer and financial resources by partnering with:
  • Ø  Cafes
  • Ø  Study Centers
  • Ø  Discipleship Initiatives

The goal is to fun four projects: one each in Russia ($88,900), Spain ($76,200), East Asia ($57,150), and CAMA Kosovo ($82,550).

The South Pacific District, our district, is part of TEAM SPAIN…wherein
funds we collect in our district will be going toward a Cultural Coffeehouse in an area of Spain where the work is mainly among Moroccan immigrants who move to Spain in search of a better life. These are mostly Muslim immigrants, and a variety of avenues are used to share the Gospel with them.


The coffeehouse is a proposed new place of ministry that would eventually be both a self-sustaining business, and also a very active place of ministry where Christ stands out even in the mix of cultures. The sweet aromas of North African mint tea and the rich roast of Spanish café con leche bridge two nations on common ground. The cultural coffeehouse will enable Alliance workers to meet new people and have spiritual conversations over a warm beverage. Christian resources, Bible studies, and discipleship will round the coffeehouse experience.  

If you would like to contribute to this project please send all contributions to the Church. 

Our address is 

340 East Evans Street

San Bernardino, CA 92404.  



Prayer Requests

Each week we receive an email from our Headquarters. This email contains prayer requests from around the world. Each week, these prayer requests are printed and posted to a Prayer Bulletin Board in our church foyer. I have decided to start posting them here as well, so that those that read our blog can prayer for these requests as well.

If you would like to receive these prayer requests in your email, please click here and visit our Headquarters website to sign up.

Words of Encouragement

Thank You, God for Everything

By Helen Steiner Rice

 

Thank You God, for everything--

the big things and the small--

For every good gift comes from God,

the Giver of them all,

All too often we accept,

without any thanks or praise,

The gifts God sends as blessings

each day in many ways.

And so at this time we offer up a prayer

To thank You, God, for giving us

a lot more than our share.

First, thank You for the little things

that often come our way--

The things we take for granted

and don’t mention when we pray--

Oh, makes us more aware, dear God,

of little daily graces

That comes to us with sweet surprise

from never-dreamed-of places…

And help us to remember that

they key to life and living

is to make each prayer a prayer of thanks

and every day Thanksgiving.

Generous Missions Contribution

The following is a personal hand-written note from the President of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, Dr. Gary M. Benedict. He wrote this note in response to the generous missions contribution of $2,100 that Pastor brought with him to our General Council in Tampa Bay, Florida in June.

“Alan,

Thank you and the good people of the church in San Bernardino for the generous support of Great Commission Sunday. It is a great blessing and a huge encouragement.

God Bless You,

Gary”

Kid’s Club

Introducing our newest ministry…Kid’s Club. Kid’s Club is a fun place for children to learn about God.

Slide6

Kid’s club takes place on Tuesday night while our Adult Bible Discussion class meets. We are continuing to explore the themes we briefly touched on during vacation bible school.

Slide8

Right now, we are focusing on the theme of Love…God’s Love and how God loves us. Each week, the children listen to a brief story, expand on the story with a craft to remind them of the story and the receive a memory verse to memorize.
