Blessed Are Those Who Mourn
In the World, but Not of the World
Thanks and Welcome!
The To Do List is Full Up!
Brothers and sisters in Christ (at Christ), I cannot begin to tell you how much I feel, see, and hear the love of Jesus Christ in this congregation.
What do you want us as Christ's Church to count on and celebrate?
So, in a world that is changing and amid our changing perspective, what is constant?
There is an order to what God does, and He orders the world and our lives and even time.
Ash Wednesday invites us to be marked with signs of our mortality and to acknowledge our fragile and transitory nature. It is a time to pause, to put to words our confession of rebellion against God’s will, and to be penitent before Him. Browns, grays, and black make the color palette for this holiday, and the attire, sackcloth and ashes.
So yes, the church is full of hypocrites, just as Alcoholics Anonymous is full of Alcoholics.
Christ Church Gastonia is a steadfast Christian community, a part of the Global Methodist movement. We strive to give glory to God our Creator; to be His hands and feet through service to others; and to connect with the local and global communities through witness of Jesus' love. Our strategy is to prepare people for ministry through dynamic worship, vital community outreach, life-changing small group study, and joyful Christian fellowship.
