CORF UPDATE #16 | JUNE 19
“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed .” (John 8:36). We are His people. We are His agents. We are His ambassadors. Will we be people of freedom, real freedom and not just the idea of freedom? Will we be agents of freedom to those in captivity? Will we be...
“Privilege Released, Burden Lifted,” John 17:1-5
We’ve been in this passage for a long time now. New verses, but the same passage. And as we come to this place today, we are understanding that the end was near. The feet had been washed, the passover meal had been eaten, the new covenant has been announced and a new commandment had been...
“Promises Kept,” Revelation 7:1-8

CORF UPDATE #14 | JUNE 05
Hello CORF Family, We pray that the peace and love of our just and loving God be with you in these trouble times. If you had the chance to drive around today, you would see fallen trees around the neighborhood from the recent storm, and this on top of the pandemic, the protests and riots,...
“Another Pentecost,” Acts 2:1-4
I decided to step away from John 16. One reason is because it’s Pentecost Sunday, the day that we remember what we call the birth of the Church, that we remember the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The promise of the Father that Jesus has been preparing the apostles for. It was when the day...
CORF UPDATE #13 | MAY 29
Hello CORF Family! May the love of God and the everlasting peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. We thank you for your continued giving and for the way you choose to be the expression of God’s love. Let’s push on and continue to do our part as the Lord allows us...
