Freedom
Pastor Joe Saragusa
 
Thank you to all who have served in our military.  You made this selfless commitment for our freedom, and for that, I am truly grateful every day. 
 
Today we live in a country that is free of tyranny because of the men and women who dedicated their lives to this cause.  Today we are spiritually free because, simply put, God paid the price for our sin.  We give Him our sin and in return He gives us forgiveness, power, and heaven.  What an opportunity.  We don't earn our way to heaven; we don't barter our way to heaven - we don't.  We don't pay our way to heaven.  It's just a free gift we're given.

COME OUT AND MARCH WITH US IN THE PARADE!!
 
Celebrate Kids will be marching in Celebration's 4th of July parade tomorrow morning, and we'd love to have you join us!!
 
We'll be meeting in the parking lot of the Community Presbyterian Church at 8:00am.  The parade starts at 9:00am and is expected to be completed by 10:00am. 
 
This year's theme is "A Celebration of our Troops," so if you'd like to wear apparel that shows support for our troops, that'd be great!  Flags, balloons, streamers, face paint, etc., is encouraged as well.
 
We'd love to have a big group representing Celebrate Church in the parade, so even if you don't have a child marching in the parade, you are still invited to march with us and help pass things out to people along the parade route. 
 
It's going to be a GREAT day, and we hope to see you there!!

Unchanging
Pastor Joe Saragusa
 
These two things cannot change: God cannot lie when he makes a promise, and he cannot lie when he makes an oath. These things encourage us who came to God for safety. They give us strength to hold on to the hope we have been given.                                Hebrews 6:18 (New Century Version)

One Life...
Pastor Joe Saragusa
 
Living a life that impacts and influences... I have always wanted to live a life of influence, a life beyond just existing.  The more I talk with people, I find that so many of us have that common desire to live a life that impacts.  Even more than our desire to live this kind of life, God wants us, and designed us, to live a life with meaning and will show us how. 
 
How?

Pastor Joe Saragusa
 
The August calendar is looking packed.  Our entire family did an escape for one last time before school starts and all are heading in different directions.  Dominick heads for his third time to the Dominican Republic on a global compassion assignment.  Mia will be heading to Atlanta with a team of young people and leaders to work on a national compassion assignment.  I started thinking about that, and so here are my questions and thoughts.  I hope you are encouraged and challenged.

IE CAR WASH THIS SUNDAY!
LAKESIDE PARK
July 26th - 11am to 3pm
 
IE Youth is having a car wash after service this Sunday from 11am to 3pm at Lakeside Park in Celebration. All of the proceeds will go to help the students going on the upcoming mission trip to Atlanta.
 
While in Atlanta, these students will be partnering with SafeHouse Outreach, a ministry that serves the homeless, the poor, and at-risk children in inner-city Atlanta.
 
SafeHouse Outreach believes in "giving a hand-up, not just a hand-out."  In joining with them, these students will be empowered and encouraged to reach beyond their comfort zones in relying on God to move them into serving fully out of love rather than obligation.
So come out to the car wash on Sunday in a show of support for our youth and their upcoming missions trip!

Hope Me...
Pastor Joe Saragusa
 
Yes, "Hope" me rather than help me.  More than just help, our spirit needs hope to survive and to thrive.  Solomon put the need for hope in this statement found in Proverbs 13:12, "Hope deferred makes the heart sick..."  Another translation puts it even more to the core of the issue: "When hope is crushed the heart is crushed."
