Fully Alive Community Church

First Place 4 Health provides a complete program for women wanting to pursue better health--physically and spiritually. This is a great time to gain the support you need to achieve those goals you set for the new year.

Join us Thursday nights at the Fully Alive campus at 7pm. Contact Diana Mitchell for more information.

Hope your 2012 is off to a good start. This year promises to have lots of exciting things in store for us individually and as a church community as we continue to seek God and his best for us day by day. I hope you're looking forward with anticipation toward what God will do!

If you missed Saturday's New Year's message, it's available to listen to either online or by downloading it to listen on your mp3 player. The New Year's resolution worksheet we completed is also there for you to download. You can still fill it out and bring it to church in a self-addressed envelope and we'll mail it out to you mid-year as a reminder and a source of encouragement toward your goals.

Our services have been moved to Saturday for the next two weeks--and the whole family's invited!

We'll have one service each Saturday morning at 9:45. Nursery will be available, but older children and youth will join us for the service.

We'll start a new series, Discovering Fully Alive, beginning Sunday, January 8.

Today our new series, The Advent Conspiracy, began at Fully Alive. Lee Redmon challenged us to find ways to worship at home and at work as we prepare ourselves to celebrate Christmas. We were also challenged to make our needs known to God and to others. It's been awhile since we've had a regular sermon series, so I just wanted to remind you that if you missed our Sunday morning services, we've got the audio of the message available on the website to listen or to download and take with you on your smartphone or mp3 player.

Thank you, Fully Alive! Last Sunday, November 20, was our Sunday for Serving. It was a little messy, a little chaotic, and a whole lot of fun! We packed more than 135 shoebox gifts to send to kids around the world. We collected 67 turkeys for CityTeam Oakland to provide meals for people in need. Happy Thanksgiving!

The previous Sunday we took 250 lunches, 250 care packages and lots of warm coats and other clothes to Civic Center in San Francisco and helped men, women, and children in need: providing for their physical, and in some cases spiritual needs.
