Rebuild With Prayer

9/3/2021

 
First of all, thanks to everyone who participated in our Good Neighbor Project this past Sunday.  We had over 50 people from both Parkside Fellowship and Bedrock Community Church, who came together to love our community through serving.  Many of you gathered at the high school, where you cleaned out a ceramics room and picked up trash around the campus.  Others of you met at the church in order to sort and fill 72 backpacks with much-needed school supplies.  Thanks to all those who donated school supplies, we could not have completed this project without your generosity.  Great job everyone!

Has it ever occurred to you that Jesus launched the church, not while people were singing or while someone was preaching, but while people were praying?  In the first two chapters of Acts, the disciples were doing nothing but waiting on God to move.  As the late expositor Harry Ironside once stated, "When God is going to do some great thing He moves the hearts of people to pray.  He stirs them up to pray in view of that which He is about to do so that they might be prepared for it."  Just like these early disciples, I want to invite you to set aside time this next week for self-examination through prayer and supplication, so that we might be ready for the tremendous thing that God is going to do in our church.

To help facilitate your time of prayer, beginning Tuesday, September 7th through Friday, September 10th, the Fireside Room will be open  from 9:00am to 6:00pm each day for individuals/couples/families to come and pray.  Each day will have a different prayer focus.  These include: love, humility, courage/strength, wisdom/discernment and hope.  There will be a communion table, kneeling options, chairs, a table with Bibles labeled with specific scripture based on the days focus and other elements to help guide you during your prayer time.

As you consider joining others in our church family for a week of focused prayer, I want to share with you James 5:13-14,16

"Are any of you suffering hardships?  You should pray.  Are any of you happy?  You should sing praises.  Are any of you sick?  You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you...Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.  The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results."

Please join us this Sunday at 9:30am, as we take a deep dive into the prayer of Nehemiah found in Nehemiah 1:5-11.  Prior to our 9:30am service, consider joining us at 8:45am in Pastor Doug's office, for a special time of praying for Parkside and the other churches that meet on our campus.

As we gather for our in-person service, Parkside church staff and leadership will be wearing masks and we are asking everyone to do the same.  Please consider joining us this weekend.  We were created by God to worship and praise Him together, in community, so plan on being at Parkside this Sunday at 9:30am and don't forget your mask!

Also, for those that are not able to join us in-person, you can still join us online

After the service, at 10:45am, we invite you to join our "after-church" discipleship class on the book of Revelation.  The book of Revelation unveils the glory of Jesus Christ.  Written by the Apostle John, Revelation is a reminder to remain faithful and trust God, even when things around us don't make sense. 

See class details below: 

Discipleship Study:  Revelation (The Christian's Ultimate Victory)

See you Sunday.
