In Person Church Sundays @10:30am and/or join us online @KCF Facebook page
Welcome to Kootenay christian Fellowship, we are glad you are here!
As a community of ordinary people, we believe something extraordinary: that God loves us as we are, has a plan to not leave us as we are, and has made a way for us to be with him, to know and experience him in our lives. This literally makes all the difference in the world. We believe that he loves each and every person, and our desire is that we might be able to serve you in knowing him more, either to introduce him to you for the first time or to fuel the fire in your ongoing journey of faith.
As a community, our vision is to be GATHERED together around Jesus, to be FILLED with his Spirit and to be SENT on the mission of the Father; to bring hope and restoration to the world around us. We would love for you to join us on the journey.
We look forward to getting to know you and please let us know how we can help.
May you experience the peace and love that he has for you.
Andrew and Rachelle Freeman (on behalf of Kootenay Christian Fellowship)
Life Changing Encounters
One life changing encounter leads to another. There was a woman called Lydia down by the river who met a man named Paul and had a life changing encounter. Paul, after his own encounter with Jesus went from putting Christians in prison and even to death to being willing to risk his life, so that the truth about Jesus could get out.
Now he is talking to Lydia and it says that “the Lord opened her heart to pay attention to what was said by Paul.” (Acts 16:14) As Paul shared the gospel - how Jesus lived and died for us, was buried, but rose again, something happened in Lydia‘s heart. The presence of God opened her heart and she believed in Jesus and was baptized.
When we speak about this risen Jesus, we can expect that the Holy Spirit is at work, opening people’s minds and causing them to believe and have faith in Jesus. This is really encouraging isn’t it! It is God by his Holy Spirit who is with us, that works to open the hearts of the people around us, to sit up and pay attention as we share about Jesus. Some will throw the words away, but others will respond as God works in their hearts and ignites faith.
This Sunday we’re baptizing four young men who have had their own life-changing encounter! God has been at work and opened their hearts to believe in Jesus and to follow him. God is at work in and through our lives. One life changing encounter leads to another! See you Sunday!
Love to all,
Andrew
