Our Mission

First Christian Church of DeSoto seeks to fulfill its mission before God by meeting the following three goals:

• Develop a better understanding of our relationship with God by centering our lives around God through worship and Christian education.
  

• Increase our commitment to outreach in our communities by tithing a portion of our total giving to outreach and opening our facilities to outside organizations and involvement in our community.
  

• Cultivate true communion within our church family through contact with our homebound members and through Elder Care of our flocks.

News for the Pews

 

Our Bible is full of references to becoming ‘new’.  In the Old Testament the word usually translated ‘new’ is attached to the ideas of bright and fresh.  In the New Testament notice the work itself begins with the word ‘New’!  There is ‘sing a new song’, a ‘new covenant’, a ‘new spirit’ and ‘new heart’ and so on.  God is a creating God and so we are not surprised to find the Bible filled with ‘newness’ and ‘becoming’.

 

We are in God’s likeness and also becoming new…some may even say new every morning (providing you do not look in the mirror first thing!). Part of our newness arises from our salvation through Jesus Christ which offers us opportunity to become new not once but as a way of developing in our discipleship all our days.  We are all ‘becoming…’.

 

We invite you to join us the Sunday’s in January and first Sunday in February to experience anew the stories from the Gospels that followJesus, the infant in the manger visited by the Magi (January 8th’s Reading), presented in the Temple, staying behind without his parents to have a discussion with the rabbis, being baptized, and performing his first miracle.

 

Sunday, January 15     Scripture: Luke 2:22-35    “Jesus’ Presentation”

Sunday, January 22     Scripture: Luke 2:39-52    “Jesus Visits the Temple”

Sunday, January 29     Scripture: John 1:29-35     “Jesus is Baptized”

Sunday, February 5     Scripture: John 2:1-12       “Jesus First Miracle”

       The service begins at 10:30a.m.

                                    Come join us.

                                               You will find a warm welcome!
