21 Days of Prayer & Fasting

January 5, 2025 • All Day |Open Road Fellowship

Join us over the next 21 days as we intentionally seek God in prayer and believe Him to do amazing things in 2025.

We will partner with our friends at Chruch of the Highlands for resources and corporate prayer times. You can click here to go to their website for some fantastic resources.

If you've never fasted, this is an excellent opportunity to deny yourself of a worldly pleasure to help you focus on God. Some will fast food (or types of food), some will fast during a timeframe, and some will fast things like social media or sweets. Do whatever God leads you to do. It's not about what you give up but that you sacrifice something.

Open Road PitStops

January 15, 2025 • All Day |Open Road Fellowship Church

Do you struggle with __________? You fill in the blank. Yes, Jesus is the answer, but do you need help figuring out how to make that happen? You've heard it said... You can't go toward your future until you settle your past, but do you believe it?  The only way we will begin to change is to bring people into our lives that love us, and that want to see us succeed.  We believe life change happens in the context of relationships.  PitStops have one simple purpose: to bring people together.  God created us to live in community with others, and it is only then that we can experience the full life He intends for us.

PitStops meet once a week in locations all around our area.  We believe there is a group out there for you! If you are interested in hosting a PitStop, contact Raymond, at raymond@openroadfellowship.com.

Sign-ups will begin on January 15th. PitStops will begin January 27th - so keep checking back to see when yours is ready for you to sign up.

Open Road Men  (Tuesday evening @ 6pm)

Hearts and Hands  (Wednesday evening @ 6pm)

Keep In Step

January 26, 2025 • 10:00am |Worship Center

This four-week series, Keep In Step, looks at what Galatians 5 tells us about walking in the Spirit. As the Father is, so we are meant to be. We see throughout the New Testament that we can only be like the Father by imitating the life of the Son and walking hand in hand with the Spirit. This series will consider ways to "keep in step with the Spirit" (Galatians 5:25) through the new year

If we view our Christian lives as being under the rule of the law, then we will be unable to live the life that Christ created for us. Hebrews 10:14-23 tells us a great deal about what it means to press on in our faith. It ends with this encouragement: "Let us hold fast the confession of our hopr without wavering, for He who promised is faithful". It feels a lot like the encouragement in Ephesians 6, which instructs us, after having done all we can do, "to stand fast". It all comes down to this focus: keep you mind on Christ, trusting that He is all He promises.
