LOOKING BACK/LOOKING FORWARD

The Same Yesterday, Today, and Forever!

Reading for the Week of March 14-20

Day 1- Psalm 144 and Psalm 145
Day 2- Psalm 146 and Psalm 147
Day 3- Psalm 148, 149 and 150
Day 4- Matthew 26
Day 5- Matthew 27
Day 6- Matthew 28
Bonus- Read 1 Corinthians chapter 15 each day

Memorize/Reflect- “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)

Reflection- How has my life changed for the better since I entered a relationship with Jesus?

Discussion- How does the presence of the risen Jesus Christ impact one of the following parts of your life? (How you view the future, how you treat people, how you use your finances, how you spend your time)

Prayer Direction- Thank Jesus for His life, death, and resurrection.  Pray for the power and presence of the risen Christ to fill your heart and life.

“Live It!” Challenge- As we come to the end of the Looking Back and Looking Forward focus here at Shoreline Church, ask yourself, how will Shoreline be a stronger church five years from now because I am part of it?  If you can’t think of any way your life will impact the health of Shoreline, pray about how you can engage in the work God is doing in and through Shoreline in the coming months.

March Prayer Focus- Praying in Power.  Continue praying against Satan’s strongholds and, in the power of Jesus’ Name, ask God to break them down.  In particular, pray against the ways the enemy tries to steal our joy and passion for Jesus.

January-March- Continue trying new ways of fasting that will drive you to prayer and make you hunger more for God?

This is a program of Shelter Outreach Plus. I-HELP (Interfaith Homeless Emergency Lodging Program) provides food and shelter for 20-25 homeless men every night of the week partnering with different churches in the area. The men arrive showered, sober and screened.

Shoreline Community Church hosts these men every 4th Friday of the month.The Men’s Ministry provides breakfast for the men. View some of our last I-Help pictures. To become involved in this ministry contact Debra Federico at dfederico@shorelinechurch.org or call 655-0100 x 312. We are also collecting a coat, jacket and sleeping bag drive for these homeless men through the end of February.

About 35 workers went to Marshall Elementary School in Seaside to accomplish several tasks. They painted driveways, parking lots and playgrounds. They did maintenance work in the cafeteria area and also some landscaping. At the break, while enjoying some great snacks, they heard a presentation from Principal Wong, about what Calvary Christian High School is all about. Take a look at some of our pictures of the day: Serve Saturday with CCHS.  Many thanks to all that made the day possible.  With your help, alot was accomplished.
