Evangelism at Mansfield's Gay Pride Event

9/1/2015

Comments

 
Picture
This past July a Gay Pride rally was held in Mansfield, complete with a parade through the town and celebrations through the afternoon and evening.  

We at Providence Church did not take this wickedness lightly.  It was a serious concern for prayer.  

Thanks to the organizing efforts of our in house evangelist a group of men from the church went to the event to pass out tracts, engage in evangelism, and stand for righteousness in the land.  The picture above shows the men gathered in prayer prior to their going out to the event.

There were a number of good gospel conversations that were had during the outing.  We estimate that there were about 300 tracts passed out, which would have covered the majority of the people who attended the event.

We pray that these men and women will come to a right understanding of sexuality and offer repentance that is pleasing in the sight of our Savior.

This week, as we remember the events of Passion Week, Providence Church will have services at different locations.

First, a Good Friday service will be held at Kendig Park in Hayesville (20 E. Main Street).  It will commence at 6:30 pm and run approximately an hour.  This is an informal service and those who attend are encouraged to offer personal reflections on the cross.
 
Secondly, on Easter Sunday Providence Church will be meeting at the Mohican Outdoor School, which is located at 5370 Bunkerhill North Rd (directions here).  

A carry in breakfast will be served from 9:15-10:15 am.  We invite you to join us for this time of fellowship.

The service will commence at its normal time (10:30 am).  Matt Timmons will be preaching a sermon entitled, "Persevering faith looks beyond this world and beyond the grave" from Hebrews 11.

We look forward to your joining us for the worship of our Risen Lord!

We'll will kick things off at 6:30.  We also invite you to bring some finger foods to enjoy with our fellowship afterwards.

You can also be planning ahead to join us for our annual New Year's Eve gathering.  The location is TBA, but we'll definitely be having our usual time of games & fun!

New Meeting Location to be Tested

9/23/2014

Comments

 
Attention members & visitors:

Due to growth we will be testing a new meeting location in hopes that it will afford us some more space.

Please be advised that on October 19th and 26th we will meet at the Cabin restaurant.  The Cabin is located St Rt. 603, just a bit further south of the Lion's Club (directions). 

The Cabin has a meeting room that holds 150, and should afford us a little more room.  We know that this will not be a long term fix for our situation, but we hope that it might provide at least some temporary relief. 

So please be advised that October will be a different month:  
  • On the 5th we will have our normal meeting at the Lion's Club.  
  • On the 12th we will meet at the Mohican Outdoor School.  
  • On the 19th & 26th we will meet at the Cabin.  

All of these will have the same service start time (10:30).

Please feel free to ask any questions, and certainly try and spread the word!

Deweese to Speak at Mansfield Tea Party Meeting

9/20/2014

Picture
On Monday our elder, Judge Jim Deweese, will be the featured speaker at a Mansfield North Central Ohio Tea Party forum.  Jim will be speaking on the first amendment and answering questions.  

The announcement, which appeared in the Mansfield News Journal, provides some background...

DeWeese has been taken to court twice for hanging a poster of the Ten Commandments in his courtroom. During February 2011, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the poster violated the First Amendment’s establishment clause.

The meeting is scheduled to run from 7 to 9 p.m. and will take place at Wyandotte Senior Center, 1164 Wyandotte.

Revving Up for the Ashland County Fair Booth 

8/12/2014

Comments

 
Can you believe it?  Summer is almost over, and the Ashland County Fair is just a month away!  

Last year we had a great time distributing literature and sermon CD's at the fair (Did you see the pics?).  Now we are starting to revv up for it again.  We've ordered more tracts and have started printing new CD's.

If you would like to participate in this outreach to our community, we welcome it gladly.  We are looking for people who will help man the booth throughout the week.  You can take a few hours on a single day, or take a daily slot.   We'll have the sign up sheet at the information table at the church over the next few Sunday.

Balloonfest Evangelism Pics

We had a great time at the Ashland Balloonfest doing our evangelism outreach.  Five families came out for it.  With kids we totaled around 25 people.  We passed out hundreds of tracts in less than an hour and a number of us had opportunity to share the gospel in conversation.  

We saw that lots of people took time to read the tracts.  The balloon launch ended up being delayed and it eventually was canceled.  While it is always sad to have this fun event turn into a bust like that, it actually worked to our advantage.  As boredom sets in people start looking for something to read!
