This page is a forum for the elders of SFC to communicate regularly with our participants about important developments in the life of our church and about the progress of our mission “…to reach the Stapleton Community and the surrounding communities and to provide an atmosphere in which they can become fully devoted followers of Christ.”  We will update this information regularly to give you an ongoing picture of our development as a church family and of fulfilling our vision of becoming an authentic community of followers of Christ that has maximum impact on the surrounding community for Christ. 

 

Headlines from the most recent Elders’ meeting on February 27th, 2011:

BUILDING THE “TEMPLE”

“Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain.” --Psalm 127:1

As you’ve witnessed in the video updates during worship gatherings and via the congregational tour on February 27, Hangar 61 is undergoing a rapid transformation! With the help of many creative planners, coordinated engineers, careful overseers (thanks, Joe!), and skilled laborers (and of course the blessing of the real Architect of it all), Hangar 61 is becoming a functional and beautiful church home for SFC--and, we hope, a vital resource for the Stapleton community. There’s still a lot that needs to come together in a very short time, however, so please join the elders in praying that we will be in the building in early April, in time for a joyful Easter Worship.

STEPPING UP

“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” --1 Peter 4:10

The elders would like to thank everyone who attended the volunteer rally on February 13 and/or stepped up to help make our transition to two Sunday morning worship services a success!  This change will help us prepare for the growth we expect our new permanent home to foster, and it provides everyone with a chance to contribute.  If your family is still looking for a way to serve on Sunday mornings, please contact Joe Mudd.

40 DAYS OF PRAYER

Please join us in 40 Days of Prayer starting March 1st in advance of the grand opening of Hangar 61. You may follow along with each day's prayer request through the printed guide available at our worship gatherings, or via a daily email devotional from Pastor Dean. We know that God hears his people’s prayers, that prayer changes things, and that the more people earnestly pray for God’s purposes to be fulfilled through SFC, the more effective we will be as an instrument of His Kingdom. Please pray earnestly day by day, and join us in trusting God for great things during this season!

 Thanks for reading, and check in again next month.
