That's right...on Sunday, September 20, we had our 6th Annual 911 Honor Service where we honored Law Enforcement, Firefighters, EMS and all emergency services personnel. This is the biggest day of our year and our church did a super job planning and preparing for this day.
I preached a message on "The Five Most Disturbing Things About Hell" and God really moved in the service. We had 321 people in attendance and 15 people were ARRESTED by the Holy Spirit of God and put their faith and trust in Christ as their Savior!
I want to thank all those who labored and worked and prayed for this day. God has truly blessed us with a great church who loves people and has a heart to reach this community for Christ. I am blessed to be your pastor!

Whew! I'm Dizzy!!!
We have just finished up one busy summer! We had a lot going on but I would rather be in a church that is active than one that it dead! We have had some exciting activities but the biggest blessing to me is the people we have seen saved. Seeing somone trust Christ as their Lord and Savior beats every activity put together! Of course, when we get right down to it, that is really the purpose of our activities; to reach people for Christ.
Not only have we seen people saved in our services, but others are being saved during the week, as well. Recently, while our "GO" Outreach Team was on visitation and our Jeremiah Prayer Team was praying, Bro. Chris Stephens was able to lead his wife's 97 year old grandfather to the Lord! That is what it's all about, folks!
I mentioned our prayer team, just now. When we began our new "GO" Outreach, we also started the Jeremiah Prayer Team. This group of people meet every visitation night and while others are out knocking on doors and witnessing, the Jeremiah Prayer Team is at the church praying for them and also for all the special prayer requests which have been turned in. If you have a special prayer request you would like for them to pray for, just go to our church website at www.cbcsilercity.com and click on the "Submit A Prayer Request" link. Or you can go directly to the site at www.CBCPrayer.com.

Give Me A "G"...Give Me An "O", What Does That Spell?
It spells our new "GO" Outreach on Thursday nights! Our church is real excited over this new outreach ministry we have started, and I can't blame them! What a blessing it has been, to me as a pastor, to see people getting excited over ministering to others and reaching them for Christ. That is what Christianity is all about.
To also help with outreach, we have some special events coming up that are very exciting. Our Homecoming is May 17. We have some special music along with a Bar-B-Q afterwards. Then, on June 7, we will be having "Help For The Hurting" Sunday with our special guest, Bro. John Bishop. You do NOT want to miss that Sunday!
If you are a member of Community Baptist Church, let me encourage you to make sure you not only attend each of our special events throughout the summer, but invite someone to come with you. You may not realize this, but the last two people we've seen saved here at church came because someone invited them. Sometimes that is all it takes.
I really believe if we will do OUR part, God will do HIS part!
