Celebrate Recovery @ Rafter J Cowboy Church Wednesday, May 7, 2014

May 7, 2014 Red

CELEBRATE RECOVERY

It’s our 4th Anniversary!

We invite you to come celebrate with us.

We are serving cake after small groups.

Denial Lesson #1

Large group starts at 7 pm (age requirement 15 years and older)

Small groups start at 8 pm (age requirements 18 years and older)

Principle 1: Realize I’m not God. I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable.

“Blessed are those who know they are spiritually poor”.

(Matthew 5:3)

Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors, that our lives had become unmanageable.

“I know that nothing good lives in me, that is in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.” (Romans 7:18)

Before we can take the first step of our recovery, we must first face and admit our denial.

Disables our feelings

Energy lost

Negates growth

Isolates us from God

Alienates us from our relationships

Lengthens the pain

Focus Question:

In what areas of your life are you now beginning to face the truth and break the effects of DENIAL?

Rafter J Cowboy Church Work Day – Saturday, May 3, 2014

April 30, 2014 Red

ATTENTION Rafter J family, we would like to invite you out for a clean up day at the church on May 3rd. We plan to start at 8AM, coffee and donuts will be ready when you show up. If the time is too early show up when you can, there is plenty of work and people coming and going throughout the day.

Please bring shovels, chains saws, weed eaters, paint brushes, etc. We have an extensive list of projects and hopeful to accomplish a lot with a bunch of volunteers.

If you are a great cook we especially want you to come and bring desserts, cookies or your favorite recipe to keep the volunteers charged up and not running low on energy. We will provide pizza for all and have lunch together around noon.

If you do not know many folks yet at Rafter J this is a great way to get to know your extended family and serve Christ together.

Looking forward to a very productive day together, see you Saturday morning!
