Getting It Done: A Church for the M People
Twenty years ago the Chapel adopted an unreached, unengaged people group in East Asia called the M People. Eighteen million people living and dying with no opportunity to hear the Gospel. Since then God has done some amazing things to bring glory to Himself and good news to this people. This year’s Global Ministry Conference celebrates what God has accomplished and challenges us to Get It Done. The church is sprouting and our role is morphing. We look forward to the day our planting role changes to a partner role. Join in as we consider the roles God has for us in this stage.
Sunday Mornings
Sermon Series: The Christ Who Gets It Done
In Christ we have what it takes to get the job done. We explore that entrustment through sermons entitled: The Message That Gets it Done, The Ancestor Who Gets It Done and The Faith That Gets It Done.

12 Hour Prayer Vigil - Friday, February 23 at 6:00PM to Saturday, February 24 at 6:00AM
Sign up for a one-hour slot during our 12-hour prayer vigil here at the Chapel. Why this date? Because the M People are among those celebrating the most important holiday of the year, New Year’s. Why these hours? It’s when they are gathering and conversing. Families travel from all over the nation to be together, so it’s a great time for the gospel to be spread. Ancestor worship is a key element of the celebration, so it’s a dark and challenging time for believers visiting home. Each hour features a live Skype call from a worker letting us know how to pray. Help us pray for the M by signing up today. Come as a Home Group, a group of friends, a family. Refreshments available through the night. Email Carol Bryant (carolm0506@aol.com) with any questions.
