If you
are feeling lonely, I want you to know that you are not alone. Research shows that
loneliness has reached epidemic proportion around the globe. It does not
discriminate as to age, gender, economic standing, culture, or any of the many
categories we create to distinguish people. So take comfort today that you are
not alone in your loneliness!
Spiritually
speaking, loneliness serves a valuable purpose. It reminds us that God wired us
to live in community. It motivates us to open up and reach out to others. And
as we do, the reward is great!
You have
an opportunity this month to join one of our new Growth Groups. For eight weeks
in October and November you can meet weekly with a small group of people from
church for discussion, fellowship and prayer. Your group will choose and do a
service project together and plan a social event to enjoy.
My prayer
is that you will be motivated to join a group and experience a new level of
community at Cornerstone MCC. And do a favor for someone you know who's
lonely...bring them to church with you Sunday so they will know they are not
alone. If they say no, let them know they can watch the service on our website.
THANKS Media Team!!!
