Pastor's Weekly Email

Dear Friends

I hope you were able to join us on Sunday for worship.  I know that the sudden storm with heavy rain may have made it difficult to get through the city streets.  Mayan Drive was full of water and those who made it to church were sporting their best rain gear instead of their Sunday best!  But it was a wonderful communion service filled with beautiful music led by our amazing choir.  Each February at CBTS we highlight our mission program.  It’s an opportunity to hear what God has done this past year,and identify ways for you to join in and participate in what God is doing throughout our community. Our focus yesterday was our ministry to the homeless.  We partner with Hope South Florida; Lifenet4Families; Broward Rescue Mission; and Habitat For Humanity, contributing funds, donating to special projects, and providing labor and hands-on help for many of these ministries day-to-day programs.  We also had a special visit from one of the founders of Hope South Florida.  Fred Scarbrough gave a brief testimony about how his faithfulness to one family was used to start a movement in his church that grew into the largest homeless assistance ministry in Broward County.  How God works when we simply follow his command to help those in need!  I hope you’ll pay close attention to the ways you can get involved as we focus on a different area of our ministry each of the next few weeks.  In the meantime, have a wonderful Monday!
