Dear Fellow Christians, If you are like most believers across Tulsa County, your heart aches for the homeless you see on the street corners, the single moms struggling with their children in the grocery stores, and the innocent children who are failing in all of our at-risk schools. The raw Tulsa County statistics below makes all of our hearts cry out for God’s help. When most Christians see these statistics, they ask questions like: “How can this be in the belt-buckle of the Bible belt?” and “Why can’t all of Tulsa’s great churches and ministries come together to tranform all of these lives?” But the question we like hearing the most is: “How can I help activate my church in serving the lost and least of these?” |
The 2006 Community Ministry Summit will help equip Christians all across Tulsa to learn how to help move a person in poverty through a process of initial help all the way to full transformation in Jesus Christ. As you call to sign up for this Summit, get ready to respond with action that will glorify God and make disciples! Call to register or to ask more questions about how your church can help change Tulsa's future! Your Co-Laborer in Christ Jesus, Chris Beach Anna Falling Chief Boyd Co-Founder Executive Dir. President Cornerstone Assistance Network
