  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

When Easter comes... so does spring, bringing new life to the world.

The butterfly adorns the fields gracefully, moving among flowers so bold,
The beautiful flowers paint the mind with their amazing fragrance.
As the birds prepare their nest, they harmonize in song celebrating joys
of spring and new life.

Just as the spring rains bring new life to trees and plants,
so did Christ's tears water our soul, giving us life through his death.

We call his act of love "Easter".


Prayer

We are celebrating today, Oh Lord,
the angels rolling the stone away.
Join us as we gather to share
and give thanks for this day.
As we are caught up in well-worn traditions,
Lord, Keep them worthy,
for like the deer path through the forest,
they lead us both forward and back.
Thank you for your divine love
and may we understand anew what this day really means..
