Mission Team Speaks

We give praise to God for the safe return home of the 27 people on our missions team.  The team experienced God’s provision and presence in a powerful way as we served alongside the Herko Family Mission team. 

We worshipped at Old Harbour Church and saw 3 people baptized on Sunday.  The work we did included: painting at the church and constructing shelving; construction and painting a new house for a church member; and holding VBS for over 350 children and parents. 

Thank you to all our CPCC family who upheld us in prayer, supported us financially and donated the many supplies we needed.  It was a privilege to be the hands and feet of Jesus. 

"When you think of a mission trip what comes to mind?  For me it was doing something for God that stretches my faith.  What I didn’t expect was to grow feelings for a community of people in some county so far away so quickly.  It was tough to leave with so much more to do.  We are often willing to help people next door or in our church but we draw some intangible boundary on how far from home we are willing to go.  God has no boundaries though.  I understand that so much more now.  We forget that people everywhere need to know about Gods love.  Can’t wait to go again."   Tim Cassidy

On July 12
, our Sunday morning guest speaker will be our missionary partner in Jamaica, Dennis Herko.  Please plan to attend one of the 3 services to hear his message and see a detailed presentation about the recent Jamaica mission trip by team members.

A team of seven from Center Pointe took part in a mission trip with FAME (Fellowship of Associates of Medical Evangelism) February 17-24, 2006. FAME exists to spread the fame of Jesus Christ to all nations through medical evangelism--leading people to Christ while meeting real physical needs.

Center Pointe financially supports FAME and host missionaries Trevor and Valerie Colby in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The team of seven from Center Pointe were part of a group of 20 people--lead by host missionaries, the Colbys--who traveled to poor, rural areas and set up medical camps. About half of the team of 20 was medical personnel, while the other half had little or no medical backgrounds. Each person was used to his or her abilities, with the overall purpose of the medical camps to make a presence in the villages, to share Christ's healing love, and to be the hands and feet of Christ to the Hondurans.

Because of the mission team's presence in these villages, the Colbys and other Honduran-native church workers could build foundational relationships with the Honduran people so that in the future, a Honduran pastor could come and start a church plant in each of the villages. The team of 20 also visited several hospitals in the capital city of Tegucigalpa to pray and give hope to those suffering.
