Meet Kazika

I have had a bunch of wonderful African memories flooding through my heart and mind this week. You will get to share in some of those memories this weekend. In our services, you are going to see my first meeting with Kazika, the Global FingerPrint Orphan Deb and I support monthly. The fact that I was able to go to Africa is on account of our shared desire to influence and touch our world with the Good News that Jesus saves. Each one of us shared in the blessing. It is building for each of us "eternal heavenly treasure that will never be destroyed"(Mt. 6:19-21).

Right Sight-New Freedom! This weekend we will be challenged by Jesus' words. Namely, that in the practical living of life, our vision of Kingdom Principles really matters. Almost every person with whom I come into contact desires their life to count for something. And I believe wholeheartedly Jesus wants that for each of us more than we probably do for ourselves.

I hope you make weekend worship a priority in your schedule. It's my prayer that God will meet you as we worship together. I am confident he will, for it is a stated desire of God. As we" draw near to God he will draw near to us".(James 4:8)

Financial Peace University begins this weekend. At last count I heard over 250 have signed to take this course. It is a wonderful tool to help all of us find financial freedom. I believe almost every person at Constance can profit from this great teaching by David Ramsey. I encourage you still to take steps to sign up for the Sunday, Tuesday or Wednesday night sessions. I know this teaching tool will be a factor in your growing toward Christ this year.

I know we have all been travelling and very busy this last month. During that time, I was reminded what a blessing the body of Christ is in our lives. It's such a blessing to serve as your Pastor. I am continually amazed by the heart of this body and know your love and service is making an eternal difference for the kingdom of God.

See You this Weekend

God Bless

Pastor Randy

  1. I am so excited to be starting the Financial Peace University! My husband and I have attended the church for many years and we have really struggled to stay in line with God's word when it comes down to our pocket book. It will be great to be able to have somewhat of an accountability with the people we study with. I am ready for freedom in Christ when it comes to our wallet! I want to give to God first even when I think it won't work out in the end. I know that it always somehow manages to work out when we are faithful to him.
