Central's Pastoral E-Letter: August 9, 2013

 

Dear Central Family,

 

Hello everyone, it’s Pastor Anthony.  Pastor Gay and his wife Kim are enjoying a much-deserved vacation so I’m writing this week’s pastoral e-letter.

 

We praise God for the safe return of our Brazil team!  We’re looking forward to hearing about the work they’ve done in Porto Velho.  Thank you so much to everyone who partnered with the team through prayer and/or finances.  The team will give a report on their mission trip on a future date, but in the meantime, check out the pictures and updates on Central’s Facebook page

 

Kids Camp Trenton is coming up soon!  It starts on Monday, August 19 and goes through Friday, August 23 and will be held at the facilities of the First Baptist Church of Trenton.  We still need volunteers, so please contact Stephanie Earle at searle@cbcnj.org if you can serve.  Also, we need donations of new backpacks and school supplies which will be distributed to kids in the community.  Please drop off  any donations in the bin at the Fellowship Mall. 

 

We are still looking for a few host families to house Japanese Students from the Word of Life camp. The students would be arriving the evening of Friday, August 16 and will need a place to stay until the morning of August 19.  If you can host some students, please e-mail Irene Knott at iknott@cbcnj.org.

 

Join Central for a Bowling Night on Wednesday, August 28 at Colonial Lanes in Lawrenceville from 6 to 8 pm! The cost is $12 per person for bowling, laser tag, two slices of pizza, and soda.  Everyone is welcome!  Please note that advance registration with payment is required for this event, so please go to this link to register.  Questions?  Please contact Jonathan Uy at jon@uyfamily.com

 

Registration is open for the annual Men’s Retreat on October 18-20!  The retreat will be held at Sandy Cove Conference Center in North East, Maryland and weekend’s theme is “The Cure: What if God isn’t who you think He is and neither are you?”  For more details on the retreat, go to Sandy Cove’s page.  To register, go to this link or stop by the Men’s Ministry table at the Fellowship Mall this Sunday. 

 

If you are in town this weekend, please join us at any of our five weekend services as we continue our Life in the Kingdom series.  You have heard that it was said, ‘’Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth,” but what did Jesus say? Come and learn His desire for our life in the Kingdom.  I will be preaching in the 9:30 Classic and 11:00 Unplugged services on Sunday morning and our Teaching Pastor Jared Alcántara will be preaching at the Saturday night service at 6 pm and both Modern Services on Sunday at 9:30 and 11:00. 

 

See you this weekend!

 

Anthony Gilmer

Pastor of Spiritual Development
