Brothers and sisters,

So, we're having a prayer meeting at the DOC this Friday night, Dec. 18th @ 7pm. Come join us for worship and prayer. Let's pray for God to pour out His Spirit downtown and use the DOC in a powerful way for the furtherance of His kingdom to bring Him glory.
The DOC meets at 221 2nd Ave. N. in St. Pete - Hope to see you there!

Bible Passage
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.
Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest,and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about."
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
Luke 2:8-20
Things to Examine
Paul Washer Quote
"You see, here’s the thing, and I get ostracised for this, I don’t care.
A persons got ten minutes to live and they don’t know Christ.
Don’t contemplate the theological ramifications of witnessing to a wrong person.
Witness to them! Plead with them!
Do not manipulate, there is a difference between manipulation and pleading.
Plead with them to come to Christ."
We always welcome newcomers!
The Street Evangelism Team meets in the Family Worship Area of Calvary Chapel St. Pete every Friday night from 6:30-7:30 p.m. This time is spent in prayer and intercession for the lost.
After the prayer meeting, participants are given an opportunity to share their faith through street evangelism.
Your continued prayer support is greatly needed, so we also welcome you if you would like to join us just for prayer.
