Atlanta CPA Offers Thanksgiving for Warriors for the Kingdom of  God…Taking Christianity Into the World
 
Serving the Lost the Last and the Least
 
It was an honor to serve alongside you this Thanksgiving. God is deeply touched and honored by your efforts. Continue in your efforts to excel in all that you do and to look to the needs of others. Reading God’s word and applying it to your life and Christian Service, is how God will best pour out his power and majesty in your lives.
 
I watched every one of you intently on this day as you poured out God’s love and put down your busy daily lives and did What Jesus Would Do on this great day. You have answered this call and sought out His will for you, your family and your lives. I encourage you to draw a line in the sand and use this Thanksgiving as a defining moment in your lives to seek to Serve Him in All That You Do. If you accept this heavenly ordained will for your life, God will meet you where you are, guiding your steps.
 
In the Old Testament, Nehemiah was burdened by prayer and tears for the walls of Jerusalem, which lay in ruins. In Nehemiah’s Obedience, he sought out by prayer, God’s blessings and favor for his work. Nehemiah personally went to inspect the city walls to see what might be done to protect God’s chosen people. This Thanksgiving you have inspected the walls of the Homeless of Atlanta and found what I have also seen. A people who need love, a hand up and most of all God’s love from God’s people.
 
Seek always to Live in Obedience to His word and He will honor your efforts regardless of life’s circumstances, illness, job loss, family, work and school issues. We believe that God uses the oldest to the youngest in perfect unity to His will. He God uses us all, especially our weakness and our failings to serve, uplift and mentor to the needs of others. For it is in our weakness that we are strong. It is when we decrease and put aside things of the world, that God can use us to do great things in God’s name. 
 
I invite you to join us on a great journey to work alongside Pastor 7 and the 7 Bridges to Recovery to Serve the Lost the Last and the Least of Atlanta. God wants you to live expectantly and to expect to be able to do Great Things in God’s Name, always seeking and expecting the Power and Majesty of Christ. If you live Humbly Seeking to Serve, Rather than Being Served, You will Be the Hands and Feet of Jesus Christ bringing miracles into your life and the lives of others.
 
God has a Great Plan for You and Your Life. Join us as We Do This Great Thing God has laid on our Hearts.
 
In the Matchless Name of Our Lord and Savior,
John & Tami Dillard
Dare to Attempt Something so Great for the Kingdom of God that it is doomed to failure, lest Christ be in it!

Gwinnett CPA Seeking Place of Business, Store or Office Adopting an Atlanta Homeless Shelter for Both Thanksgiving and Year Round

Gwinnett CPA Seeking  Place of Business, Store or Office Adopting an Atlanta Homeless Shelter for Both Thanksgiving and Year Round 

Feeding the Homeless of Atlanta 

The Ministry is called 7 Bridges to Recovery and is located at 2875 Brownsmill Rd SE Atlanta, GA 30354. The purpose of the ministry is “The purpose of the ministry is to rescue our brothers and sisters off the streets and help them break the binds of homelessness, alcohol, drugs, sexual addictions, prostitution, and abuse.” 

” The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”  

At present there are two large construction needs in process with the first being to build out the dorm area where ladies and their children can stay and sleep together. The dorm when built out will be able to support approximately thirty homeless mothers and their children. Also there is a need to have Pastor 7 on-site predominantly full-time and the build out of the apartment will allow him to do so. Pray to see what God might have you do to serve Him in your community. God Bless You Each and Every One. Please note that also the ministry has an ongoing need for those to worship with their hands and feet by offering to assist with construction projects on site. 

Providing for the Homeless takes much more than a good meal on Thanksgiving. We are looking for church groups and individuals to partner with us throughout the year to Get God to The Lost, The Last and The Least. Below please find a few of their ongoing physical needs.

Pastor 7, his men and the ministry are doing great things in God’s name to serve the Homeless Men & Women of Atlanta. To learn about more his ministry visit http://www.7bridgestorecovery.org/home_page.html

Thanksgiving Day 2009: Feeding the Homeless in Atlanta…Taking Christianity Into the World

My wife and I were blessed to be able to serve at 7 Bridges to Recovery where we met Pastor 7 and his men!  This Thanksgiving in 2009, we will be serving the homeless men and women of Atlanta as we bring a Thanksgiving feast and God’s word to many people living under the bridges of the streets of Atlanta and some canned goods to the shelter.  We will also be collecting jackets and sleeping bags to help keep those who cannot do for themselves warm this upcoming winter.

We are collecting any items that will assist in keeping our friends under the bridges warm.  If you have blankets, sleeping bags, winters clothing, ANY ITEMS to keep the cold away, please let us know and we will either pick them up or you can bring them to us. If you want you and your family to be involved please contact John Dillard at 770 814 9304. Please note that this trip is Good for the Whole Family.

Thank you for caring and please pray for Pastor 7, his men and the ministry. To learn about his ministry visit http://www.7bridgestorecovery.org/home_page.html   

Missions Lite.

The work may not be Lite but the time and financial commitments will. Rather than a week trip, Mission Lite will be for over weekends and will be within driving distance of Sugarloaf United Methodist Church. The added advantage of Missions Lite is in their shorter distance and time period that the costs will be much less than a week’s trip.

I believe that Missions Lite has the promise of bringing life metamorphosis and change to those who want to discover the redeeming power of Christ, who would otherwise not sign up for a week’s mission trip. I have personally watched lives change through missions and I believe Missions Lite will do much to revitalize Christians and help us all as we Take Christianity Into the World. Missions Lite is not intended to take away any of your zeal and enthusiasm for week mission trips where you are already emotionally and spiritually engaged, but for those who will not otherwise be able to go on a mission trip and to add more mission opportunities for those already committed to week-long mission trips.
