To say I’m excited would be the understatement of the year. Huge opportunities are on the horizon and I’m PUMPED OUT OF MY MIND to see what Jesus is going to do this Christmas season. Here’s your chance to jump on all He has in store…

1. Shoes for Shelby. This Sunday we have the opportunity to bless 100 families in our community. I am excited out of my mind about this chance to show such a tremendous amount of love to those Jesus desperately loves Himself. And there’s still time. Why not GET INVOLVED and watch what Jesus will do through you!!

2. Christmas Eve Service. Another incredible opportunity to love on our community. Why not give the gift that keeps on giving this year and invite all your friends and family to attend this service with you this year. You never know, they may just meet Jesus!! What better Christmas gift can you give? Get all the details you need right here.

3. THIS Sunday. Its the second week of our Savior King series and it is going to absolutely rock the house. God has a word for you He does not want you to miss out on. Make the celebration complete this year by being here this Sunday and experience all Jesus has in store for you the Christmas Season. It’s going to be EPIC!! Oh yeah, DON’T BE LATE… You may just miss the best part!

4. It’s CHRISTMAS!! What better time of year to sell out to all God has in store for us and see people meet Jesus!! If you can’t get excited about Christmas, then you can’t get excited about anything. And this Christmas, I’m extremely excited about being able to celebrate the birth of our savior with our little boy. This will be Kellon’s FIRST CHRISTMAS and I am so ready to see his face on Christmas on morning. What an amazing blessing from the Savior we serve!!

5. The New Year. And specifically this new year because we are not only leaving behind one year and entering the next, but we are turning the page on another full decade and about to receive all God has for us during the second decade of the 21st century. WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY!! The possibilities are endless. This is THE TIME to be alive.

So much potential is on the horizon and all Jesus ask in return is that we capitalize on the opportunities He’s laying out in front of us to build His Kingdom, see people turn back to Him, and make His Name famous in all we do. Let’s be the church God has called us to be. What better opportunity than right now!!

Experience a Christmas Eve Service like never before…

Thursday 6:00 pm. December 24. (yep, that’s Christmas Eve!!)

And we promise you will never forget it. In fact, this is THE SERVICE everyone will be talking about the rest of the year.

Don’t be the one who misses out. And don’t let your friends miss out either. They might just never buy you another Christmas present again.

So tell the family the pot roast can wait one more hour, Santa will deliver the presents after you’re in bed anyway, and that Christmas will NOT be complete with out attending this service!!

Better yet, why not bring the whole family and let everyone experience all that Jesus has in store as we gather to celebrate the most significant birth of human history in straight up Revive Church style… 

Take the week and SPREAD THE WORD. We promise you do NOT want to miss out on this Christmas Eve!!

The response for this ministry has been tremendous. We are so close to reaching our goal of blessing 100 families in our community!!

But we have just one more week to go as our deadline approaches THIS Sunday, December 20th.

In order to help you out, here are some specifics on how you can give:

Shoes for Boys – Sizes 1-6   /   Shoes for Girls – Sizes 1-4

Coats for Boys – Size Small – Large  /  Coats for Girls – Size Small – Medium

Lets do this church!! Lets make this happen. Lets show our community the love of Christ and reach our goal of blessing 100 families.

Jesus has not called us to sit on our hands but rather to rise up and serve. Lets make some noise this Christmas in the best way possible through pouring out our generosity on those who need it most!!

*Cash donations, canned foods, and other clothing items will be accepted as well. If you wish to make a cash donation, please designate as “Shoes for Shelby 2009.”

You haven’t had Christmas until you’ve experiened Revive Church Christmas!!

To say I’m COMPLETELY GEEKED OUT about what Jesus is going to do through this series would be the understatement of the year. 

You do not want to miss this. And your friends will hate you for letting them miss out too. So why not do EVERYONE a favor and INVITE your friends to experience Christmas like never before…

Party starts 10:00 am this Sunday!! Oh yeah, one more thing. DON’T BE LATE!! We promise you do NOT want to miss how we kick this thing off. Just sayin’!!

Here at Revive Church, we are challenging our peeps to make a vital impact on our community throughout the Christmas Season. Its pretty simple. But so influential.

Here’s the deal…

We are collecting SHOES and COATS (both new & gently used) to be passed out to local families through our 4 Elementary Schools.

Why shoes and coats? Again, pretty simple.

They can become some of the mostly costly items parents want to purchase for their children, but sadly may not have the financial availability to make it a reality. 

And even more unfortunate, these are items children most desperately need during the winter season in order to stay warm and healthy. 

So we have decided to do something about it. And we’re inviting YOU to join us!!

If you currently attend Revive Church, jump in NOW. You have until Sunday, December 20th to bring your items by the facility.

If you are not attending Revive Church (live out of town but still love Jesus) and you feel God impressing it upon your heart to participate, simply write out a check to “Revive Church,” designate it as “Shoes for Shelby 2009″ and mail it in by December 15th for our church staff to purchase the items for you.

We’ve even listed our church mailing address for you…

PO Box 3183

Shelby NC 28051  

In case you’re wondering, we are not turning any donation away. We will also collect any other new or gently used clothing items you may want to donate as well canned food or cash donations designated as “Shoes for Shelby 2009″.

Everything you donate will be poured right back into our community.

Our goal?

Impact 25 families from each of our 4 Elementary Schools allowing us to love on 100 total families in our city!

Let’s do this church. Let’s make this happen. Let’s be the people Jesus has called us to be and love the ones He has called us to love. Here is our opportunity. 

What better time to show the love of Jesus than here at Christmas as we celebrate His birth with our community around us!!
