Call to Prayer during June
The Church Council calls the RCRC congregation to a month of concerted prayer with regard to our future facility needs and our mission in this community. We are all aware that the facility in Ormiston is coming under strain, and that further land has been purchased on Boundary Rd, Thornlands.
Choices about whether to or how to relocate, and what role church planting plays in this, are not clear cut. With regard to Boundary Rd, there are matters relevant to town planning, environment, main roads, etc. which require some investigation and the implications of these reports are at this stage unknown.
One thing is for sure: we cannot entertain the thought of doing nothing. 90% of our local community still lives outside the love of Christ. The Lord has blessed us richly these last years, and rather than have us think that the work has been done, Church Council is of the mind that these rich blessings may well indicate that our work is yet to begin.
With this in mind we ask you to pray that God will speak into every person’s heart so that we come to the meeting on Saturday with a clear vision of how are we might respond to what God has given us.
Friends, we are serious about being open to the Lord’s leading in this, and invite you to partner with us in this season of prayer. Please use this next month for reflection, prayer, discussion, and seeking the Lord’s will. We especially encourage you to ask the Lord for open minds, humble hearts, and a deep sense of unity as we walk ahead together.
