    30 Hour Famine

    Our student ministry will be doing an event called the 30 Hour Famine, November 22-23, where the students and volunteers fast for 30 hours, do projects to serve the community, and raise money for World Vision. The mission verse for our student missions is 1 John 3:18. Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. You can show support of our students by providing donations of assortments of juices to drink during the fast, breakfast items on Sunday morning, large cardboard boxes, and monetary donations to World Vision.



    Cambodia Worship Time

    Tony Pitaneillo, International Mission Board missionary to Cambodia, will be speaking in all three worship services this weekend. Tony and his family will lead us in worship and share with us how God is working in Cambodia. Mission teams from Brookwood have been working with Tony since February 2006 in helping to spread the message of Christ through surgery teams in the capital, Phnom Penh, and medical clinic teams in the villages. You will discover what it is like to be a missionary in a foreign land and be challenged to grab hold of the opportunities that God places in front of you to share His message with a lost world.
