FCSF Update, January 2008

Can you imagine, we are now in the year 2008?!
In the year 1972, as a boy of ten years old, I would imagine what the world would be like when I’d grow up – a time so far away! Now- we are experiencing the future.
Years change, we physically change, yet some things seem never to change.
People – the blessings and burdens of us all continue as long as we live in this, a fallen world. But there is hope, and I am honored and humbled to witness the love you show to so many, giving hope in seemingly small ways. Please read some of the true stories listed in this blog, every person you have faithfully served. Also, take a moment to read the Servant’s Report to get a quick look at the numbers of those cared for by you. Thank you.

Faith Community Service Fund’s Board of Directors will be meeting on February 20th to plan strategy for 2008 and beyond. Our prayers are to see our servanthood described in three levels:
Body – our current financial service to people
Soul - connection to sources of spiritual strengthening
Spirit – walking with our Creator

You can join us by praying – we need your prayers for wisdom throughout this strategic planning process.

Always, we are never really alone. An old hymn reminds us of His power, which is always present:

Lay down your burdens, I will carry you my child.
Because I can walk on water, calm the restless sea,
I’ve down a thousand things you’ve never done.
Lay down your burdens, I will carry you my child.

I thank the Lord for you everyday.
