"Misericordia - Mercy" and Johanna's Birthday Party

Image
Last Saturday, November 6, 2010 c2C meeting was held in our new friends and c2c members, Kelvin and Johanna Peña house. We were delighted to have been invited to their lovely home to not only have our regular meeting but to celebrate a very special occasion, Johanna’s birthday ! We had a wonderful time full of laughter and joy. First we started off with a powerful prayer and then followed by the word of God. The topic: Mercy in spanish: MISERICORDIA A good way to understand the meaning of mercy is to see how it relates to grace: 1. Mercy--not getting what you do deserve / withheld punishment 2. Grace--getting what you don't deserve / unmerited favor I found this example: • Mercy is like a judge finding you guilty, but then withholding any punishment. Grace is getting something you could never have imagined. An inexplicable gift. It's like the same judge awarding you $10,000,000.00, after finding you guilty! • In this sense, mercy can be thought of as the opposite of grace, or ...

Special Guest: Pepe and Claudia on Marriages/Relationships

Image
So, last Saturday, October 23, 2010, we had the great privilege of having Pepe and Claudia shared their knowledge on Marriage and Relationships . It was a definite eye opener for all of us! I would love to share with you all the things that they spoke about but it was so much information that it would take quite some time to write. Pepe and Claudia both addressed the responsibilities of the husband and the wife. Pepe spoke on behalf of the man and Claudia on behalf of the women. I’ll share with you a few of the things that I remember. 1 . Ladies – “I have a headache is no excuse" when your husband desires to be with you. Remember that your body is no longer only yours but his as well. 2 . Gentleman – “ It is your responsibility to clean her car as well” – Just because she has a different car, doesn’t mean that she needs to clean it, it is your responsibility as the provider of the house – to maintain your wife with a clean car and full of gas !!! I like it! (Especially, s...

Bible Study - 1 Samuel Continues ....

On Saturday, October 16, 2010 , Edy continued the study of 1 Samuel 3. As we study this book, we are able to see how the prophesies and the word given by God will come to past. Just like seeing in Samuel and Ana's life and even in Eli's and his sons. Some have a better ending than others. So, that goes to show you that you should really pay attention when God is speaking to you. It has been amazing how God has been working with this book all around the world. That following Monday night in our church’s prayer service, our Pastor played for us a video of a preaching he heard during that weeks conference that he had attendend in Chile! With a different mind blowing revelation but... Yes, that’s right! Chile – the country! Imagine how amazing God is, that even in another country God was speaking through that book. At the same time, Ana gave the testimony that on a doctors appointment in Miami, the Doctor asked her if she knew who the second ...

c2C goes out to Feed the Homeless

Image
On September 18, 2010 we spent the afternoon with our brother Rafael Cambero supporting his ministry in feeding those less fortunate than us. This was indeed one of the most powerful life touching events we have ever done. The group got together to prepare some meals and we headed out to Downtown Miami to the homeless whom day after day are looking for a shelter or something to eat. With prayer and will we were able to accomplish the task at hand! God was faithful! We were able to finally do what God has called us to do: to go out there and speak the word of truth to those in need. Here is a video with testimonies for you to see for yourself. If you are interested in joining us next time, write to us at c2c@jesusvivehoy.com we are heading out again on October 16, 2010 at 2:00pm. All donations are welcomed! Thank you Sandro for doing the video for us! Now we can share it and those who didnt make it are able to see it!!!! and Thank you Rafael for sharing this wonderful experience wi...

Bible Study "1 Samuel" Month of September

Image
c2C on Saturday, August 28, 2010 commenced a new Bible Study on the book of 1 Samuel that has lasted all through September. Bob Deffinbaugh wrote the following statement and I agree, "while the people and events of 1 Samuel are from long ago and from far away, the struggles these men and women faced are the same as ours today, as we seek to live in a fallen world in a way that is pleasing to God. There are many ways in which we can identify with these ancient Israelites, and many lessons we can learn from their successes and failures. As we embark on our study, let us do so with a sense of expectation, praying that God may change us and work in our lives as He did in the lives of these men and women of old. May God use this book to make us men and women after His heart." We have a powerpoint that we have been using that shows key points of what we have learned from the study, if you are interesed in getting a copy of it just let us know. For a better understanding please ...
