Take a look below at what's happening this week at Four Oaks Killearn.


Gospel Partner Update: Mike & Bonnie

 

Mike & Bonnie lead Cabaret Haiti Mission in Haiti, which provides oversight & care for about 50 orphans, literacy education to adults, and two churches that minister to the locals. They continue to serve and love the people during a very turbulent time, as this past year has been a time of economic crisis, political instability, and social unrest. CHM is sending requests as part of a 40 days of prayer campaign (ending June 24), so please visit their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/CabaretBCH/) to get to know the CHM family and join them in prayer.

How can we praise God with you?
  1. Praise God for our faithful partners in prayer over this season of unrest. This is not our “last resort,” but our first privilege!
  2. Praise God for protection and perseverance through this season of unrest. “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9
  3. Praise God for the shipping container recently donated to provide supplies for CHM. Visit http://bit.ly/fillthecontainer to help fill the container (link opens in Amazon)!

How can we join you in prayer?
  1. Pray for the children at CHM. Pray that the Lord would draw them close to Him and that they would grow in their love for Him. Ask God to protect them from the evil that is rampant in Haiti and guide them in the path that He has made for them. 
  2. Pray for the 9 kids who have transitioned out of the children’s home because of age. Ask God to calm their anxieties and lead them to trust in Him for the future, especially their school and work.
  3. Pray for the financial need caused by the unrest and inability to host teams over the past few months. It is pretty calm at the moment, but the lack of teams has put us in a bit of a financial bind.
  4. Pray for the team from Four Oaks who we hope can come and serve here July 11-19.

Safe Families Training on June 8

  • Family Friend Training (8:30am-noon): Family Friends voluntarily connect with at-risk families in order to encourage and strengthen these families so that they may thrive. Family Friends can also support Host Families in many different ways including providing meals, respite care, and transportation. This training will lay the groundwork for learning how to engage with families in crisis as well as care for their children who are in host homes.  Join us as we complete this training together on June 8th from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm in Gallery 14. Lunch is provided. 
  • Host Family Training (1-4pm): Host Families voluntarily take in children for short periods of time.  These families are screened and approved by Safe Families for Children.  As a Host Family, you will make a lasting impression on a child in need and possibly change the trajectory of a family in crisis.  This training will cover everything from welcoming the child into your home to returning that child to his home.  Join us as we complete this training together on June 8th from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm in Gallery 14.  Lunch is provided.

Summer in Four Oaks Kids

  • Summer Camp Sundays start THIS SUNDAY, June 9! Rising 1st-6th graders will meet in the youth room during the 11am service for an exciting time of “camping out” in God’s word as we study the book of Exodus. During 1st service, rising 1st-6th graders join their parents in the sanctuary.
  • A new Sensory Friendly Class is being offered during the 11am service for rising 1st-6th graders who might be more comfortable learning in a smaller, quieter setting. Email Shannon Pifer for more information.
  • Big Church Sunday is the first Sunday of each summer month (7/7, 4/4, 9/1).  Rising 1st-6th graders will join parents in the service during both services. Worksheets and crayons will be available in the lobby. We will have our usual nursery and preschool classes during both services.
