BETTER TOGETHER: AUGUST 13 – A Day Together, A Day TO Remember

Have you longed to belong? The truth is, everybody wants to be loved and wants to belong. That’s what 40 Days of Community is all about.

August 13 is a day to remember and a day to belong. On that day FBC will begin its 40 Days of journey to serve God together as a community and in our communities. August 13 is our KICK-OFF day. Bring your family. Bring your friends. Each one bring one. We will rejoice on that day together.

What will happen to FBC in this 40 Days of CommUNITY Campaign?

This campaign will help us to become a community of people who genuinely love each other and care for each other. Through 40 Days of Community, we are going to deepen our sense of community within our church, then reach out to the community around our church. We’ll discover the answer to the question, “What on earth are we here for?” And, don’t forget to invite a friend to join you on this amazing journey.

Prayer Forcus for Week 3 July

“And not because we think we can do anything of lasting value by ourselves. Our only power and success comes from God.”
2 Corinthians 3:5 (NLT)

This week's prayer focus is very relevant to FBC. We pray for God's provisions not only for the 40 Days of CommUNITY campaign but also for church's ministries, day-to-day operations, church repairs and support for God's workers here at FBC and those abroad.

This Week’s Prayer Focus #1: GOD’S PROVISIONS

1. Pray that God will provide the energy, time, and endurance for all tasks to be done in preparation for the 40 Days of Community.
2. Pray that God will provide the needed volunteers to make each Campaign event successful.
3. Pray that God will provide our church with all of the material resources needed to facilitate this Campaign.
4. Pray that God will provide unity among leaders and ministries in our church, as they give their time and adjust their schedules to meet deadlines.

“Prayer is the key that unlocks all the storehouses of God's infinite grace and power. All that God is, and all that God has, is at the disposal of prayer.”
R. A. Torrey

This Week’s Prayer Focus#2: THE KICK-OFF EVENT

1. Pray that the Kick-Off message will be one of God’s catalysts that will ignite enthusiasm, participation, and commitment during the 40 Days of Community.
2. Pray for all the churches worldwide that are participating in the Campaign, that their Kick-Off event will go extremely well.
3. Pray for the response of people to the appeal for Host Homes, that God would move in hearts and cause a groundswell of response to this challenge.


But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of His heart through all generations. - Psalm 33:11 (NIV)

“Tomorrow I plan to work, work from early until late. In fact, I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer.”
M. Luther
