Dave WoodHuron Chapel EvangelicalMissionary Church, AuburnHave you ever wondered what the church you’ve always longed for might look like? At Huron Chapel we have begun a journey that will last 50 days to give us an idea what we can do to makethat happen. The criterion is set andthe principles it entails requirechange, commitment and decisive action on each part of the congregation. Each part doing their part … but each part doing their part according to His part so we don’t fall apart. Now does that make sense? In ICorinthians 12:12 the Apostle Paulstates that, “The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.” Imagine the parts of your body notco-operating! Wait a minute, thatdoesn’t take much imagination at myage. Some of them are already declaring mutiny so I can’t even begin to imagine what it is like for Fran at this stage of the game. You get the drift. When the old body doesn’t co-operate it leaves pain and it debilitates and hinders us from accomplishing what we would like to do. So it is in the church. The Body of Christ was designed like a many-faceted gem and each part is called to shine with the gifting and ability that God has deemed fit to bless them with. When this happens, the church is a beautiful thing. It is a safe haven in the time of storm and a place of celebration when the sun is shining down. Each part doing its part, working in synch to accent one another so that we get a glimpse of what the church you’ve always longed for might look like. This is where we are headed at Huron Chapel and this is the longing that we have in our hearts, to work together as the Body of Christ to be church you’ve always longed for. We have a long ways to go and Henever said it would be easy but Hedid promise He would be with us onthe journey because after all, it is His Church. We are a part of all this and each part is learning to do its part so we don’t fall apart so that in all things we can commend Christ and strive to become the church you’ve always longed for. Join us on the journey and let us know how we are doing.
