Missionaries to Pray for This Month – Calvary Chapel Bacolod
Billie & Pastor Joe Rosmarino: Greetings from the Philippines, Calvary Chapel Bacolod still remains a simple mission for the LORD, His people and His kids. Calvary Chapel is growing in the LORD, by His grace. The mission is full of American and Filipino missionaries and a bunch of children that love Jesus. Yielded to the Holy Spirit’s leading, for the glory of the LORD. Calvary Chapel is a threefold ministry: a Church fellowship, Calvary Chapel Bacolod (CCB); a Children’s Home (CCCH); and a Christian School, Calvary Chapel Christian School (CCCS).
Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child
It’s that time of year again (How many days till Christmas?) It’s time to bless the children around the world with gifts and most importantly with the gift of Jesus!
This is a way of entering another country with the gospel without actually going. Collection week this year is November 16-23. Boxes will be available in the foyer very soon. Please see Debbie Mount with any questions.

The Heart of a Shepherd
Philippians 2:1-2 “Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, 2 fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.”
Being observant of others & willing to be involved in the lives of folks around you is not only a gift, but I believe it is a calling in Christ for all of us who claim Him as our Lord & Savior.
To pour into a life other than your own is to serve & invest in those who have been created in the very image of God. To serve & invest in someone other than yourself, is to be Gods hands and feet to those who have been created in His image.
Genesis 1:27-28 “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.’“
The scripture above tells us to subdue the earth and to have dominion over every living thing that moves on the earth. Where do our fellow men fit into this equation? How are we to love and serve those who have been created in the image of our God?
Philippians 2:3-4 “Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.”
Let us love & serve & invest in one another with a joyous heart and glorify our God in whose image He has created us!
Ephesians 2:10 “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
