The Big One Post Game Report
Monday, May 18th, 2009
As Fred Stanford said “This is the BIG ONE!” Sunday Capstone challenge the Capstone family to give a special offering to go towards our updates to the new Capstone space.
We are excited to say that God provided almost $7000 to go towards providing better worship experiences and impacting our city. God continues to provide as we take steps of faith.
Thank You to everyone who gave sacrificially so that we may continue to penetrate the darkness of the world with the Good News of Christ.
Success: Community Impact
Monday, May 18th, 2009
Our vision at Capstone redefines success in church. A lot of the time churches measure success by the “3 Bs” - Butts, Budgets and Buildings. We don’t want our numbers at a service be how we say Capstone is being successful. The way we measure success is by transformation and impact.
Saturday Capstone stepped up in a huge way to impact our city. Several months ago the Chamber of Commerce came up with the idea of a city wide community clean up day. They called all organizations, churches and residents to rally together to clean up Fountain Inn. Since Capstone wants to make our city a better place to live, we saw this as a huge way we could show our city we were serious about making an impact.
This past Saturday 40 people showed up for Fountain Inn’s Spring Clean Blitz. Out of the 40 - 30 of those were from Capstone. Those who organized this clean up will be talking about that new church who showed for along time. Hopefully our city and community leaders will see that Capstone is more than just talk when it comes to Impact.
The proof is the work I do in my Father’s name. John 10:22
Thank You for those of you who came to be salt and light in our community.
Fountain Inn Elementary TLC
Monday, May 11th, 2009Several people have asked how Teacher Appreciation at Fountain Inn Elementary went. It was a HUGE success. We had several ways that we showered some TLC on some much deserved teachers.
Monday - Homemade Cookies in their box
Wednesday - A Starbucks Coffee bar also tubs full of waters and diet cokes
Friday - A small hand painted clay pot with a flower waiting on their desk.
We have heard from a couple of teachers who said it was such a blessings for Capstone to do what we did. Thank You for everyone to pitched in to help with this community project. We pray to continue to make an impact and gain influence in our city.
