Praying for new church

This is going to be a big weekend in Playa Del Carmen. We are launching what we hope will be a new worship that would attract 100's of working class folks. We are starting in the city park this Sat. at 6:00pm. We are going to have a Mariachi praise band and a fiesta in the park, we have plans to meet in the park for the next 3 weeks.

Please pray for this new start: Sat. 6:00pm

Also pray for our services in Paamul: Doug will be preaching and both services this week in Paamul English and Spanish.

Continue to pray for our mission house construction. The two groups that had planed to come help us with the construction of the house had to change thier plans. That means we are paying locals to do more of the work than we had plan. The house is small but very thing in the part of Mexico is higher cost. If you would like to help us finish the house you can send checks to :
Global Community Fellowship

Busyness

I am preaching on busyness this weekend. You would thing that would not be problem in Mexico but it is. Many Americans move down here to get out of the rat race in the States and in just a few months they are back to the busy lifestyle. There is a rat race here as well the only difference is the rats here speak Spanish.

There are three lies that keep us busy:

1. There’s not enough time to do everything I need to do.
2.“It’s just a busy season I’m in right now.”
3. This is really important

I could say I have had a really busy week that is why I have had time to post on my blog.

Here are our prayer needs today:

We are still praying for Darla's Mom as she waits for test results.
Darla is having a few medical test done as well so please pray for her.
Pray for us as we plan to launch a new work in Playa Starting Sept. 29th
Pray for wisdom for us as we are building a small house in Paamul.

Our Medical and Dental Clinic

We offer a free medical and dental clinic each Wednesday afternoon out at our Colosio Campus in Playa del Carmen. Pray for Dr. Daniel and Ana as they give their time and service each week.
Love is not just something you say it is something you do. The goal of our medical and dental ministry is not only to give great medical care to the poor. But it is also that the people living in Playa will know that God loves them and so does the Community Fellowship Church. Pray that this ministry will continue to be life changing.

Praying for our friends to the South

Hurricane Felix makes landfall fall south of us. We are now praying for our friends to the South. Many of you may know Marc Heffern he is now living on the Roatan an island off the coast of Honduras. I received this email from Marc this morning.

Hi Doug,
Were good here - It seems h-felix has missed us. We might get some wind/rain but it is still nice. We will not know what kind of help (if any) the main landers will need for another day or two.
The Roatan tourists was evacuated yesterday and we were preparing for a direct hit - so we are feeling very grateful.
I miss you,
Marc

Please continue to pray for the people in the path of this storm...



Our house Construction update














Please pray for these working who are helping us build our new home. We have hired a team of about 10 local workers to dig the foundation and lay block. These guys are all non-believers this morning before we started work I asked if I could pray for them, of course they said great but I know it was like whatever the boss wants to do. This afternoon the lead guy, Freddie, said he really like my prayer and he wanted to know more about our church. Please pray for Freddie and his team.

Bus Ministry still works in Mexico





Twenty two people came to church last Sunday in our church’s 15 passenger van. Thanks to the generous donation of Good Hope Baptist Church in Morrisville, NC. these families are now able to come and hear the Good News. Some friends of our at Good Hope said they had a church van that was not being used and they wanted to donate it to missions. Now we see that bus ministry will work at our Paamul campus we need your help. We could fill our Paamul building if we had 10 vans. Please help us! If your church has a van that is 10 years old or older we can import it into Mexico. Bus ministry will still work in Mexico.
