Christian Service Committee
"The committee recognizes milestone anniversaries. Unfortunately, when pictures were taken for our new directory, many of the congregation did not put the year of their marriage down. If you did not add the year to your date, please call Rayma or Jeanine , with the year and date. We do not want to miss recognizing these anniversaries!"
Christian Family Fellowship Visitation Ministry is a group of volunteers who enjoy fellowship.
● Our purpose is to visit church family, neighbors and friends who are in care facilities, hospitals or homebound, or just appreciate our visit.
● We visit, pray and share Pastor Mike's sermon CDs with those who are unable to make it to church.
● If appropriate, we offer to supply meals through the Meal Ministry of Ava Burbank and others.
● We meet bi-monthly to evaluate our ministry and who we could encourage with a visit.
If you'd like to be part of this important CFF ministry, have questions or know someone who'd be blessed by a visit, please contact: John Repar or Bob Saulmon , or the CFF Church office.
The ten members of the Visitation Committee have been active this past year. We have made phone calls, sent cards, visited in homes and nursing homes, and prayed for one another, helped with meals if needed, and given rides to doctors appointments and shopping.
We meet every two months to pray and review the progress or changes and needs for visitation. We pray that God would lead this group, bless us and those we visit, and help each one of us grow in His work; help us to be stronger as a team when we pray with people we visit; help us to be encouraging to one another and all the people we visit. Let us know if anyone new needs a visit. New volunteers are always welcome to join us.
The Buildings & Grounds Committee is looking for a Finance Committee Representative. If you are interested or would like more information, please contact Wayne Ireland
Provide Transportation
Do you know someone who needs assistance getting to church on Sundays? Would you be willing to provide transportation for someone who does need a ride? If you answered yes to either or both of those questions, please contact the church office so we can put together a team of individuals to meet a growing need at CFF. If driving is a challenge or no longer possible, you don’t have to stay at home on Sunday mornings! Don’t be shy… let us know how we can help you continue to be a vital part of God’s work here at CFF!
HELPFUL MEALS
Ava Burbank helps coordinate meals for members of our congregation who may experience a severe illness in the family, or in the event someone is hospitalized. If you are in this situation and would like to have meals delivered to your home, please contact her at 719-671-6479 or by email at as1003@ gm ail.com .
We are looking for volunteers to be added to the ‘meals ministry’ roster. Volunteers are typically called on 1-3 times per year to provide meals for families in our congregation that have had surgery, illness, etc. This a wonderful behind-the-scenes ministry that is simple but means so much to those blessed by it. Please contact Ava Burbank.
