This six-part series, Ordinary People, Extraordinary God, looks at the lives of ordinary people God used in extraordinary ways. By the end of the series, members of the congregation will be confident that God can do great things through them too.
Matthew introduces John as he came to be known—as one who baptized people. He calls him a preacher or, more literally, one who speaks as a herald. John proclaimed God’s message as a prophetic spokesman in the desert of Judea, the wilderness area to the south of Jerusalem. Reminiscent perhaps of Israel’s wandering in the wilderness prior to their entry into the promised land, John too prepared the way for One who would reconstitute God’s people.
It's the 1st Sunday of the month... it's time for our Food & Clothing Drive. We can't feed everybody, we're not a homeless shelter, we're not even a food pantry... but we can partner with other ministries to help them accomplish their tasks in what God has called them to do.
This Sunday, bring in a bag of non-perishable food items. We are making a difference in people's lives that are down and out. It may be you one day needing just a little bit of help. Also, go through your closets and look for those clothes that don't fit anymore or you haven't worn in awhile. Bring them in for those who just need a little help.

Join us Saturday, March 8th, as we head over to help our partners at Cumberland Farms spruce up around the place. They have a lot of projects that they need some help with and we will be stepping in to give them a hand. This will be all hands on deck Serve Day - there will be something for everyone to do. We will help install a flagstone patio next to the new coffee shop, doing some painting, and help with some projects over at the Lovewell Center. Cumberland Farms is where we are seeing the Gospel go forth and change lives. Plan on meeting at the church at 7:00 am and we will head over at 7:30 am. Come out and enjoy the day!
Let's Ride!!...
March 9th is the 2nd Sunday of the month. If you are new to Open Road Fellowship, that's when we jump on our bikes and head out as a group right after church for a nice ride. It's an opportunity for us to grab some good food and enjoy some fellowship as we take some time to get to know one another. The direction we head is always an adventure but geared to provide a relaxing time out on the bikes. Invite your friends; maybe a nice ride might be what motivates them to come to church. Hey, and if you don't ride, don't let that stop you from enjoying the day...just hop in your car and follow along.
North, south, east, or west... no matter where we head, you are sure to enjoy the ride. So, come join us for our next 2nd Sunday ride!
It's 5th Sunday time! Plan on staying with us following service for an afternoon of great food and fellowship. We have some great cooks, so join us as we chow down together on some fine "vittles." The day should be nice, so plan on making it a lazy day sitting around visiting, maybe having that extra piece of dessert.
Guys, let's show our guests a great day. Dust off those recipes and let's overflow the tables with your best dish. Head over to Mealtrain (click here) to let us know what you can bring.
Serving on Sunday is great, but out in the community is where we are truly called to be. So, it's time to get out and on Saturday, April 12th, we will be heading down to Coushatta. We will have our next church-wide serve day at the Abbie Lane Pastor's Retreat Center, a place that has an impactful ministry in helping pastors rest and recover. We will help them out with various projects around the property as needed... the work doesn't matter - the blessing does.
