Community 4:12
Uniting People to Restore Communities
“Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12Become
a part of a unique serving adventure – going outside the walls of the
church and helping to transform an entire community with the compassion
and love of Christ. It’s your chance to cross cultural and
socio-economic barriers and use your gifts in an unforgettable ministry
experience!
Community 4:12 provides avenues for people within and outside of COMMUNITY to:
- Reconcile with people of different cultural and economic backgrounds. CCC has a church presence in culturally and economically diverse communities so that all people can reconcile with God and with each other.
- Redistribute their financial and material resources to assist under-resourced communities. CCC attendees contribute to and support organizations, schools, businesses, and other churches as we help meet the felt needs (physical, spiritual, educational, economic, and social) in struggling communities.
- Relocate to under-resourced communities. CCC attendees live, work, and serve with indigenous leaders from struggling communities.

We now have 20 people
who go to either A O Marshall or Parks Academy schools to tutor,
do story telling or teach a fun class. If you have a heart
for making a difference in a child’s life in a very direct manner and
you have some time available during the school day, you may want to
check this out. Presently classes include carpentry,
sewing, crocheting, crafts and cooking. However, other
classes are being developed as the interest arises. ContactBob Lowe for more information.
Joliet Easter Baskets and Food Drive

Many families from A O Marshall and Parks Academy schools count on the schools to feed their children breakfast and lunch. This year there are several children that only eat at school because there is so little available in the home. These families tend to plan for their shortage of food during Christmas and summer breaks but not as well during spring break. COMMUNITY 4:12 will be collecting the food necessary to feed 100 of the neediest families at these schools.

One of the primary goals of Community 4:12 is to provide opportunities for attenders and others to serve and connect with people across cultural and economic differences. In order to engage as many people as possible, we need to know the barriers people have to serving as well as the talents and interests they can bring to the table.
