Why?
Where it All Began.
Mobile Home Park and Apt Ministry? Why?
Trailer Park Ministry? Apartment Ministry? What’s the point?
I get it… There’s a church on every corner. Why do church in a trailer park or apartment? There’s too many churches! I agree, to a point…
But, even though there are so many churches, people are staying away in record numbers… There are too many “reasons” to list.
Since they are staying away, they are not hearing the Good News of salvation through Jesus Christ…
It affects this generation, and the next… There are children who have never heard the Word…
Broken lives are everywhere. Drug abuse and alcoholism is rampant…
If people aren’t coming… Why not go to them?
But, it takes thinking outside the box, doing things differently…
It means being willing to go in there and meet some physical needs too…
I won’t go into too much detail here, but let me finish this with a true story…
A few years ago, we did a Thursday night dinner/ small group in a small trailer park in Rome. We met in a small room next to the laundromat. I walked through the neighborhood to look for people to invite to dinner. I met Jason who was walking near his house. I invited him, and he said he needed to ask his dad. After getting permission, we walked together to the meeting place. Jason told me he had never been to church before…
That night, Jason raised his hand, and accepted Christ as his Savior.
That’s why we go…
“… Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house may be full.”
Luke 14:23
Community Church Ministries is a ministry dedicated to reaching communities with God’s love.
We are dedicated to the
Great Commission :
(Matthew 28:18-20)
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (NIV)
“GO” not “COME”
“ALL” not “SOME”
And, we are dedicated to the
Great Commandment:
Matthew 22:36-40 – “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment…”
” Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart all your soul and all your mind… And… love your neighbor as yourself…”
