• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Is this a ministry?

In my church I am in charge of exchanging missionary letters. The secretary gathers up some letters every two weeks, she lets me know by e-mail and then I come to my church and replace the old letters with the new letters in their slots on the wall.

Is that a legitimate ministry? I told my Pastor I wanted to serve GOD in any way I could, and they gave me this duty.

I would think so. I'd be sure to maintain the old letters, however.

Sister, do your work to give praise and glory to Jesus Christ, it may seem insignificant to you but you are helping your church function smoothly. You can still bake some cookies and share them with your fellow church brothers and sisters to sweeten the deal :)

Jesus tells us to whoever is faithful with little is faithful with much. Though it may seem small and insignificant to you, it is a huge thing to God for you to do what you do. It is also a huge thing to missionaries who receive them. They are encouraged so much by support from congregations such as yours. You are blessing. Thank you.
