I have had a battle with my health since Thanksgiving, but looks like I am doing pretty good now,

 so will be  getting back to posting what we are doing in some of our out reaches.

God is really moving in many ways and also some changes going on.

I will be back online in a few days.

Thanks to all of you who have been checking in.

We Welcome in the year of 2013

It is starting off with a bang already for some of our out reach programs. 

Last Saturday for the Homeless ministry, because of the cold weather we were able to give out a lot of blankets, coats, gloves. 

They had a warm place to come in out of the cold, heard some good preaching from Steve and Kouami, then had a good lunch. 

We are so blessed that we can be part of what God wants to be done for the poor. They are always so thankful.

We meet every Saturday at CFTN on 19th Ave. at 10:00

South entrance of the church.

Saturday and Sunday Outreaches

This Saturday we had 2 very good outreaches with the Neighborhood Parks Ministries.

Pastors Kouami and Essie Afanou

 CFTN, 19th AVE, every Saturday morning, at 10:00

There is a group of the homeless that come, where they are fed a home cooked meal, get some clothes and ministered to with the Word, prayer and just visiting with them.

This week the young people came from “The Movement” and they are such a blessing. Ephriam ministered the “word” and that was very well liked. They also visit  with the folks and show they care. Good job all of you, we love it when you come.

Thanks Pastor Chad for sharing them with us.

The second team went to 15th Ave and Denton, to give out food bags,(40 some) and some clothes. There was a good group that showed up. This is going to be such a great area of the city to be going to. So very many needs. Extreme poverty.

We are really looking to be able to help this area. Some are already being picked up to come to church.

 

Coronado Care Home on Sunday

We go here every 2nd Sunday of the month, at 2:00. This is where you go when you want to be a blessing to shut-ins that a lot of them never have any family to visit them.

We sing old songs, with Sheila and Paul leading. She played some of the peppy ones and they come alive with them, the word is shared by  Pastor Royal, Ilona, and some of the rest of the team share what God is doing for them. We all have a good time and the folks are very blessed when we come.

We always are needing more volunteers, as the outreaches are increasing in things that need to be done. If you want to be blessed in reaching beyond the walls of our church, there are many places you can help in.

Church for The Nations!!!!!

Going beyond the walls to reach a hurting world

The leaders of our Outreach program is Pastors Bob and Debbie Putnam, who have been involved directly with Outreach for several years before coming to Church for The Nations.

This website is dedicated to inform you of what one church in the Phoenix Arizona  area is doing.

CHURCH FOR THE NATIONS (Pastured by Michael and Mary Maiden), is  going beyond the walls of our church to reach those who are lost, walking in despair, those with broken hearts, the homeless, refugee’s from other countries, visiting  the hospitals, and nursing homes.
We will be covering the many different groups that we are reaching, with the help of volunteer’s who are giving their time, to bring hope and love to many people, who are crying desperately for help.
As Christians, we have the knowledge and the spiritual help that can only come from God, who gave His Only Son, that everyone can walk in freedom from sin and it’s consequences. We know that the price Jesus paid, It has given us every answer for what mankind needs, to be able to walk in freedom from sin and to be made whole.
We are breaking the strongholds of the enemy in many lives that have been so bound by darkness and no hope.
There are many churches that are involved in reaching out to the lost and we hope that the information and testimonies that we will write about will be an inspiration for God’s people to be involved in some way, in the on going battle for souls and to show the love of Jesus to a dying world.
We want to reach our city, communities and the world for Jesus.
