Our last enews just sent out: (Not receiving it?  Sign up on what's happening...)

1 Chronicles 29:13
       In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all.
Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.

 
Hi Friends!

We have so much to praise and thank God for!
 
We had an awesome, well-attended BHCC Rally Dinner! Thank you all so much for the very positive feedback about it!  One of the quotes I loved most was when someone said to me: "You could feel the presence of God there so MUCH!" Yes indeed, our God is WITH US!!
 
(Picture above thanks to Tom M.!)
 
 
We are also praising God for the very successful launch of THE OUTLET at the Mosaic Cafe last Friday evening!  It was totally packed out and I couldn't imagine it being any better!  The music was great, the food, the drinks and the people were all amazing!  Kudos to Brenda & Dave & Carole and all the many helpers and supporters! Praising God for His blessing on this ministry!  Oct. 1st will be the next event!  Remember, the OUTLET will be at Mosaic every first and third Friday of the month!
 
  
And WOW....we are praising God and thanking Him for an incredibly successful, awesome Food Give-a-way at Phillip's Village on Saturday!  We fed around 325 people for over a week, but the best part was that we shared God's LOVE with our community in amazing ways!  Remember, Ephesians 2:10 says: "We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works." And Jesus said: "For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. (Matt. 25:35)." 
 
We were very BLESSED to have YNN show up and film us! Anytime we can get God's name in the news in a positive way, it's a victory for our LORD! We want to see Jesus' name lifted HIGH!!!  Here is a link to the video in case you missed it: YNN VIDEO!
 
Whew...we sure accomplished a lot together in Jesus' name in the past week or so! It's important that we make the time to THANK GOD and CELEBRATE all the good He has done and is doing in our midst!
 
It was awesome that we had 14 people show up at our prayer group on Monday! Remember, Prayer Time is the third Monday of every month at 7pm in the Mosaic Cafe!  Put it on your calendar for next time and if you have any prayer requests, please send them to Pam@blessedhopecc.org.
 
TONIGHT we are inviting EVERYONE to come to the Mosaic Cafe to have an informal informational meeting about NANO Groups!  PLEASE COME and find out more about this exciting new adventure BHCC is about to make TOGETHER!!!  We want to hear your input, ideas and answer any questions you might have!  See you tonight at 7pm!!!
 
One last thing friends! We need EVERYONE'S HELP on this one!  Our BHCC Open House begins THIS SUNDAY but this time, we are totally depending on YOU to invite people to it!  Mailers cost thousands of dollars and are not nearly effective as your personal invitations!  We need to pray for this Open House!  We need to pray for all our unchurched and dechurched friends and then we need to be BOLD and INVITE THEM!!!
 “If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?"
 
Let's get searching together in Jesus' name! Everyone do their part!!! And let's welcome our new family members HOME throughout this Open House!
 
In His Unending Love,
Pastor Lin
