College/Career Weekend

A BOOST FROM MY FRIEND KIRK RISING

God bless everyone!!!

This is Kirk Rising, State Youth Director in North Carolina! I just wanted to make all Overseers aware of the CCMN (College and Careers Ministries Network) website and upcoming events! We are going to be in Myrtle Beach, SC. Jan 4-6, 2008. The cost for this week-end is $30.00 ($40.00 at the door). The hotel information is on the our website. (These rooms sleep from 6 to 14! Living rooms, kitchens etc. Most are condo's) This is a very affordable week-end! This week-end is for College and University students, young single professionals and young married.

There will be a learning tract for each group. We are trying to fill the gap of our youth ministry to help curve the loss of college students and career path young adults. We hope this week-end will benefit your state and local churches. Sis Palma Hutchinson, our General Youth Director, is boosting this from General Headquarters. I have sent emails to most state and regional youth coordinators. We would also love to have your participation in this week-end. (Bring the wife, shop a little . . . . you get the picture!) The website to register online is www.ccmnetwork.org.

Please be in prayer for this week-end!

Making Heaven My Home,

Kirk Rising

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He
