vtONE Outdoor Worship Gathering Saturday
Posted by Leadership Team in Announcements, Prayer, Repentance, Themes, Unity, Worship on April 26, 2007
This Saturday, 7-10pm on Henderson Lawn at College Ave & Main St in downtown Blacksburg.
A night where we gather together across ministries and churches as God’s united family in downtown Blacksburg. We’ll have worship and prayer, plus Louie Giglio from the Passion movement will be sharing his heart with us.
Bring your friends (they don’t have to know Jesus) and spread the word. This campus is a broken place and the solution isn’t a ministry or church, the answer is Jesus Christ and his sacrifice for us. The event is just a few days away–help us get the word out!
Since we will be outdoors, please dress for the weather.
If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:12
Facebook event (invite your friends!)
Prayer at the Burruss Flagpoles, noon – 1pm all week
Posted by Leadership Team in Announcements, Prayer, Themes, Unity, Worship on April 23, 2007
In light of this past week, we feel it is important that we as believers on this campus be united in prayer continuously. Monday through Friday, at 12 noon until about 1pm, at the flagpoles in front of Burruss, we will have some worship and extended group prayer. We invite you to join the Christian body to pray for a different topic each day. Hope to see you there!
There will also be some worship tonight (Monday) night on the Burruss steps at 8:30. Bring instruments!
Update: we will be at the Burruss flagpoles rain or shine. Please wear weather appropriate clothing!
Spring Worship Event: March 31
Posted by Leadership Team in Announcements, Prayer, Repentance, Themes, Unity, Worship on March 2, 2007
This semester’s worship event will be on March 31 in Squires Commonwealth at 7pm. Come for an evening of repentance, prayer, worship, and unity as we proclaim that Jesus is Lord over all parts of our lives.
Come ready to be challenged about how you can have a bigger impact for God’s kingdom on our campus. Bring your friends, your small group, people from your classes. We’re believing that God is going to shake and rock our campus.
Check back here for more information about the event as it comes in.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
Fall Worship Event
Posted by Leadership Team in Announcements, Prayer, Repentance, Themes, Unity, Worship on August 25, 2006
“And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit . . . “
Matthew 13:23
Join us on September 23 in Squires Commonwealth Ballroom for the fall worship event. It’s going to be a powerful evening of getting right before God, praying for our campus, and uniting through worship. Doors open at 7pm.
Grab some food with your friends after the Cincinnati game, and then come over to Squires for an evening about planting seeds, bearing fruit, and perseverance. Now’s a great time to start inviting your friends, people from your ministry, people who live on your hall, and anyone who needs to be encouraged in their faith.
Worship
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.” – Romans 12:1 (NIV)
“So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday ordinary life – your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life – and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.” – Romans 12:1 (MSG)
What happens when you give an offering? You give the money to God – it’s no longer yours. There’s no stopping by the church the next day saying, “I’m going to need $15 of my offering back. The new Caedmon’s Call CD just came out.” But honestly, I do that with my life sometimes. Sunday mornings and quiet times are usually for God, but many days sleeping, eating, going to class, doing homework, and hanging out with friends are for my pleasure or my glory. On good days, though, God gets his way. On these days, classes are an opportunity to glorify God with my mind and integrity. Eating meals is a time to build relationships through which I can share His love. Homework becomes a vehicle I can use to serve my classmates, rather than just another item on my to-do list.
I encourage you to embrace what God is doing in you and around you. Make it what your “everyday ordinary” life is all about. That’s worship.
