PASTOR’S THOUGHTS SENIOR PASTOR SAM VALVERDE

CHURCH FAMILY PRAYER NIGHT

But By My Spirit

Friday, January 10 & 24 7:00pm - 9:00pm

“Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” Psalms 127:1 I trust that you and your precious family had a blessed holiday season. We have feasted and enjoyed wonderful food and fellowship since Thanksgiving. Now, let us focus on the Kingdom work set before us. I declare that we will indeed have a prosperous year 2014, in the Lord!

But we...

THE REMNANT YOUNG ADULTS MINISTRY

Can’t do it.

Just can’t do it by ourselves.

We can try. We’ll get away with talent, gifts and knowledge for a while, but except the Lord builds, it is all in vain.

PREACHING SERIES: BUT BY MY SPIRIT This month I challenge you (along with your entire family) to be filled and/or refilled with the Spirit of God. The messages on Sundays will be based on the 4th chapter of Zachariah where the famous words were spoken: “Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” Zechariah 4:6 We will set the foundation with Zechariah’s cry, and then proceed to the book of John to see exactly what Jesus said about the Holy Ghost. We will share 7 reasons why every FTC member needs to be filled with the Holy Ghost.

HOLY GHOST REVIVAL At FTC we do not schedule revivals. Some churches program two or three or even more revivals with invited choirs and a speaker. They meet for a few days and seek renewal in God. Our approach has been to sustain the inner “aliveness” and not have to be revived every few months. However, there is a place and time to celebrate a revival with a specific purpose in mind.

THE JOURNEY

THE JOURNEY

SCHEDULE & INFORMATION

This series of classes are designed for those who are interested in knowing more about God’s plan of salvation and seeking water baptism.

No classes in January Next class will begin February 2, 2014 Classes are on Sundays at 9:00am in the Q&A Room located in the Children’s Ministry area.

This series is designed to assist new believers to establish a healthy foundation on their road to.maturity in Christ.

These classes are for the following: • Those who have completed the JIC classes • Those who have transferred from another church and have been baptized 18 months or less.

No classes in January. Next Class will begin on February 2, 2014 Classes are on Sundays at 9:00am in Room 206 located in the Children’s Ministry area.

After receiving Sunday messages about the Holy Ghost baptism, we will celebrate a Friday night prayer (January 24, 2014) and on Sunday we will receive Evangelist Ron Fernandez; he will preach the word and minister especially to those who have not received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I encourage everyone to invest time in the prayer room on Saturday the 25th in order to prepare our hearts.

3-DAY FAST: JANUARY 21-23, 2014 In order for us and our families to receive a baptism of the fullness of his Spirit, we must prepare spiritually. Therefore I am calling the church to a 3-day fast the week of our revival. This will take the place of our usual 21-day fast that some of us present to the Lord. Sometimes those fasts become more about what we can eat than a concentration on the Lord’s purpose. Although in the future we will call to another 21day fast, this time we will condense our fast to 3 days. I encourage you to fast food, technology of social media, television, movies and all other past times. Let us give ourselves wholly unto the Lord. It would be a good time to teach our children the discipline of fasting, by precept and example.

The more we lean on the power of the Spirit and less on “our own understanding” we will see and do exploits in the name of the Lord.

I’m looking forward to an exciting year of growth, miracles, hard work and many victories.

Blessings,

This class is designed to introduce our new believers and transferring members to Fountain of Truth Church family our beliefs, church structure and organization.

These classes are for the following: • Those who have completed Level 1 & 2 classes • Anyone who has not taken the membership classes to date and want to become a full member of FTC. Next Class is Sunday, January 26, 2014 at 8:30am in the Q&A Room. Please call church office at (909) 822-5450 to register or email us at FTCChurchFontana@aol.com FOR QUESTIONS OR INQUIRIES REGARDING THE JOURNEY, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SEE PASTOR PATRICK CISNEROS patrickcisneros@sbcglobal.net You may also stop by our connection center located in the sanctuary after service or contact the church office at (909) 822-5450.
