JC Finders feeding the Homeless!

Preston, Sharona and I (Margaret) want to thank you all for your contributions in food and/or serving at Mama Carrie's church this past Wednesday. We could not have done it without a single one of you in however you were able to be involved. Eventhough we started this off in our Life Group, it extended with volunteers from Single Focus, parents, friends outside of NorthStar and teenagers & children of our singles. (over 20 servers) It was so amazing! Sydney and Nicole Cox were our youngest and the cutest and best bread servers you can find!!!

As you can see, God's hand was in this from the beginning to end. We had plenty of food for the over 70 guests, gave them togo plates of food and stock the church's freezer for serving future meals. They had the most amount of people ever show up in their history of doing this. We handed out tracts that explained how Jesus died for our sins, we had teenagers making plates for those who needed assistance, serving desserts and warming food as we needed it. Like always, our team jumped in and pulled it off without a hitch. Best of all, we had great conversation with the many guest. We thoroughly enjoyed participating in their service and singing the wonderful hymns that reminded me of my childhood. It was an awesome day!!

We missed all of you who could not attend, but gave by donation and/or prayer. Many of you expressed ways to help out in the future. Be sure that it will be a topic for discussion. You all represented NorthStar and our Lord Jesus to the highest!

Prayer Request November 30th!

This is a request for two members of our NorthStar family. Jinna from our JC Finders life group has asked for us to keep her and her family in our prayers as they are facing some hard 'life' struggles at the moment. Brennen from our Single Focus church group also needs our prayers as he is facing similar struggles in his own family.

Please add them to your morning and/or evening communes with God and ask Him to lift Jinna, Brennen and both of their families up for his blessings, guidance and wisdom. Thank you as always in advance and know that your prayers help immensely!!!

I hope everyone had a Wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and look forward to seeing you again next weekend!!

Prayer Request for JT!

Hi everyone! I hope this finds everyone safely tucked up in their houses with a warm blanket, a cup of hot tea or cocoa, a roaring fire in the fireplace and a great book waiting to be read. With that being said, like I'm Norman Rockefeller or something, I sincerely hope you are all staying well in this nasty drizzly weather. I cannot say the same thing goes over here at our house though. Jonathan has come down with a rather disturbing cough and I would love it if you all would include him in your daily prayers. He has a long history of respiratory issues and I take all of his colds very seriously in case of possible pneumonia or lung collapse. I am sure he will be just fine in a couple of days but thought that a few extra prayers definitely would not hurt.
Thank you all in advance and I look forward to seeing you on Sunday. Love you all!! Sharona

Prayer Request November 3rd!!

Michelle has a possible job opportunity that has come up that seems to be perfect for her. She hopes to meet with the person in charge this week (or maybe next) to interview. I think everyone can understand that during these hard economic times good job opportunities are getting more scarce and she can use our prayers for strength and guidance from HIM!
I feel very safe in saying that we all love Michelle and consider her to be a vital part of our JC Finders Life Group. We know that God will show her which direction he wishes for her to take to help provide for her and her children.
Let's all say a prayer for Michelle to be able to hear what God has in mind for her future regarding this employment opportunity. We are all behind you girl!!!!!!
