Restoration Fellowship
by Debbie Shipman
Sunday morning services were great this week! Restoration Fel-
lowship is blessed to have many gifted vocalists and musicians
ready to step in when members of the Praise Team are absent. I
believe God has blessed our congregation in this way because of
the willingness of those talented individuals to use their gifts to
honor and glorify Him. Pastor Chris' message was from Ephesians
chapters 2 and 3. He reminded us that Christ lives in us and as a
result of that we have authority over all evil. The catch is we have
to use that authority with the faith that it truly exists and belongs
to us. That, in turn, increases our faith which increases Christ's
power to live through us. I could really make that complicated if I
tried to, but I think it is one of those things I have to remember to
KTS.S. (Keep It Simple Sister). Just get in!
Restoration 2001 Tent Revival is less than two weeks away! Fly-
ers will be going out at the end of this week to families all over the
Cimarron Valley. We are asking God to work in the hearts of all
those who receive them.
Remember to continue praying for the pastors and evangelists
as well as all the other workers who will be moving to make this
outreach a success.
Restoration is a non-denominational fellowship who believes the
Bible is the infallible word of God. We are imperfect (and for-
given) humans who seek to allow Christ to manifest himself through
us by service to those in need. Our mission is to win this city, this
county, and this state for Jesus Christ.
We are expecting and praising the Lord for a bountiful harvest!
