I trust that you are taking over by standing on God's promises and applying God's Word in your daily life. Keep on keeping on! Fight the good fight of faith! - Knowing that all things work out for good for those who love HIM. I've been sharing with you these past few weeks on life lessons that I had to pass myself. If there is one thing I can boldly confess, it is that God's Word never returns void and His promises are Yeah and Amen. I urge you to apply what I've been teaching. Speak life over your challenge/situation, keep on confessing - IT IS WELL! - do not look in the natural but in faith, see how God will come through for you.

A Good Report

Building ProjectIn the process of signing off on the building plans for the Pretoria Church it became more and more evident that we needed to enlarge the building from seating 5000 to 6000 members. Thus we had to acquire more land in order for us to keep abreast with the increasing growth and expansion of the church. Well, land we have trusted for, for years, with doors closing on us, God came through once again. We are now in the process of purchasing the land for approximately 6 million rand (cost of the land is 5 million rand plus R700 000 vat and the outstanding balance is towards registration fees and the erection of a fence). We are also in the process of expanding the tent with 500 seats once again.

We have seen phenomenal growth this term in CRC (Bloemfontein and Pretoria). Since July until the end of August (2 months) the Pretoria Church has grown from 5711 to 6300 members and Bloemfontein from 29 828 to 30 400. The outreaches held at Universities, Student Hostels, Hospitals, Schools, Old Age homes, etc. had a great impact and we witnessed young and old committing their lives to Jesus Christ. The world out there is hungry for God. Get involved in advancing God's Kingdom, bring your world to Church and He, Jesus Christ will save the lost.

CRC At Your Service

At Your ServiceDuring the June/July holiday we've upgraded the Upper Room (Kidz church venue for 9 - 13 year olds) and transformed it into a multi-media facility with screens and projectors, with words of songs being displayed, a real audio-visual encounter. We are very grateful towards our neighbour (Checkers Hyperama) who availed the piece of ground adjacent to the church to be used as a parking area for the busses. We had the area prepared by a construction company, paved a walkway and installed a gate so it is much closer for our members to gain access to the church facilities. This also enables us to park more cars at the top parking area.

The Youth Hall (Kidz Church venue for 5 - 8 year olds) is currently under construction. We are building a new stage and changing it into a multi-media facility (screen & projector) which will also double up as an overflow facility. The front sidewalk is also undergoing a process of revamping; planting of trees and shrubs and paving a parking area and walkway. We strive to serve you in excellence and believe that these changes will make a difference.

In conclusion let us never forget how privileged we are to know the Lord of Lords, the King of Kings, the Creator of the Universe. Be always ready and willing to be used by God and together we can expand His Kingdom.

Many thanks for your faithfulness and commitment towards me and Nyretta and the vision God gave CRC. We value you and honor you!

Last Semester of 2009

Lighthouse It is with great expectation that we are facing this last semester of 2009.

With more fervour than ever before we are focusing on the harvest (win the lost at any cost). The world out there needs Jesus Christ now more than ever before. He is the ONLY answer/solution to the challenges people are facing. Whether it’s your marriage, your health, your business or your child that needs a breakthrough - God has the answer.

I want to encourage you that with God we do rise above the storm. Make time to meditate on the word I’ve been sharing regarding the Holy Spirit. Make Him your business partner, your confidant and comforter (Zechariah 4: 6-10 not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit). He knows you; He knows your hearts desires and what God has in store for your future. With Him, the Holy Spirit, you have the competitive edge and unfair advantage!

There are many calendar events lined up for this semester, make sure that you diarise the following dates:

Dreamweek 2009: 30 Sept - 4 Oct

This is our Annual National Conference. The focus this year will be on Business and Leadership. Investing time and money to attend a conference of this nature is good seed that can only produce a harvest of increase in your life. More info available on www.dreamweek.co.za

Team Impact: 2 Aug

Team Impact will be with us at CRC Bloemfontein. Team Impact truly believes that God desires to use every local body of believers to extend His Kingdom. It is this belief that leads us into communities rural and urban, partnering with Bible believing churches of every size, shape and makeup. Team Impact is ideally suited for churches looking for creative evangelism but unwilling to water down the message of the cross; a church focused on reaching all generations and people from every walk of life. Team Impact sees tremendous results in reaching entire cities and communities through the combined efforts of several churches or ministerial alliances.

Make use of this opportunity to bring your world to Jesus Christ.
