Sunday afternoon (August 1) I will lead the Celebration of Life service for my friend, Rita Dumont.
She was beyond faithful to our church family. On some of those low attended Sundays during the last twelve years, Rita was present, hungry to hear God’s word. Her faithfulness to the Lord encouraged me. I will miss her very much.

In new seasons we can be plagued by old insecurities.
It is easy to shrink back from our true selves due to intimidation and feelings of inferiority. Our lack of confidence can be a form of self-imposed shame. I am inspired by how this verse speaks to a better way:
In you, O Lord, I take refuge; let me never be put to shame.In your righteousness, deliver me and rescue me ... Psalm 71:1-2 (NRSV)
With teachers and students returning to class soon, I feel us turning a corner into a new season of activity and more established schedules. Do not feel overwhelmed because God will strengthen you for every task He’s called you to do.
When He stretches us, it can feel painful, but His plan for us is assuredly good. Good days are ahead!
We have a great group of newcomers coming to CIL Forward this Wednesday (July 28), but there is room for you!
CIL Forward exists so that every person in our church has heard our vision, understands the gospel, is in a relationship with Christ, and engages in ministry. This night is for newcomers or people interested in becoming CIL Partners.
We’ll meet at 6:30 pm this Wednesday. If you can come, register at

We have a unique experience at CIL Church on Sunday night – a guest worship band and speaker in the same service. Far Flung Tin Can will lead us in worship, and Mark Rampulla will preach and minister in special prayer.
Join us at 7:00 pm. Come ready to be refreshed in the Lord’s presence!
The two men who have taught me how to combine worship and intercession are Kent Henry and Bob Perry. These veterans of the “Prayer Room” movement will join together Monday at 4 PM to lead us in worship and intercession.
All are welcome to join us in the CIL Sanctuary, as this anointed time of prayer will stream worldwide. Join us at CIL, 4 PM this Monday.
The Refresh Conference is finally here! I have been thinking about this time for several months, so I am thrilled it is upon us!

Everyone is invited to all three events.Sunday night service starts at 7:00 PM.
Join us Monday at 4:00 PM for the Prayer Room intercession and worship set, then break for dinner, and come back at 7:00 PM for the Worship Night. The Sunday night and Monday night service at 7:00 PM will not be online.

I believe this will be a defining time for you. This Spirit-filled experience may stretch some of you, but it is transformational to have an experience with God.
In ten days, we will have a first-time event at CIL Church – the Refresh Conference. God put this on my heart earlier in the year. I am thrilled how it has come together. We are praying for Spirit-filled worship and impartation during this time.
Several of my friends will be ministering:
Brian Lindsey and the Far-Flung Tin Can worship team will lead us in worship on Sunday night.
Mark Rampulla is preaching Sunday night.
Kent Henry and Bob Perry are leading a Prayer Room intercession on Monday at 4:00 pm.
Kent Henry and Aubrey McGowan will lead us in a night of worship Monday at 7:00 pm.
The Refresh Conference has no charge.
All are welcome! Let’s expect God to do great things!
