Prayer List ...
"Whoever wants to be first must be last of all and servant of all..."
With these words, and with other words like these Jesus set a new standard for greatness. Greatness, in the Kingdom of God, comes through serving others. Jesus himself set the ultimate example for what that looked like when he laid down his very life on our behalf. Talk about turning things upside down…
A growing number of people around here are coming to realize that life is lived most richly when it is lived for others. It's no secret that the prevailing message of our culture is that "it's all about me." This sounds quite different than the words of Jesus.
You are invited to join with the many people who call Community home that have made meals, built houses, raked yards, served in soup kitchens, painted, washed, counseled and cared. But be warned … taking Jesus' advice about serving others just might turn things upside down for you.
Consider...
