Psalms 26:7 KJV
7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

I am so thankful for what God has done this past year. It has not always been easy, and many in our church family have gone through struggles in life. Nevertheless, God's steadfast love has come through time and time again, with His Holy Spirit always interceding when we have needed Him the most. Some have faced acute challenges, some have lost loved ones, others personal battles both spiritually and physically. Yet, God's love has always found a way. Healing wounds, touching hearts and saving lives.
We also has seen more people come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and baptizer in His Spirit in 2014, than in any year of this ministry.

I personally am so proud of the development of some wonderful new Shepherd Leaders, who have helped enable me personally to take on new challenges outside of CGMF. Giving ourselves a chance to be a blessing to so many more people in Christ's Kingdom and in the world at large. I find myself watching and praying, with so many of you taking up the mantle of Christ. I truly feel I could just move on, and the ministry would go on without a hitch, with God's anointing and power continuing to be out-poured. I am not saying I am going to do that. LOL Yet, I could.

Our fellowship with Full Gospel Restoration continues to move forward, and I hope our participation and our support will be a blessing. With God's work being done in a special way. I also pray that some of you might come and encourage the work at St. Martin of Tours. Which I have been a part of and have served. Helping this small parish move and grow, with God's best yet to come. Vicar Kim is doing a wonderful job as its mentor and she needs our prayers. They have been so supportive of your pastor, and the intimacy of the parish has helped me so very much. I have needed its shelter from the responsibility of CGMF at times, and it is a " my time " place for me to just personally unveil before the Lord away from my responsibilities here at CGMF. Giving me balance and strength I have never had before in such a special way.

To everyone at CGMF, friends and brethren. Have yourselves a great Thanksgiving weekend. We here at CGMF, and myself truly are appreciative of your love and prayers. God bless you all in Jesus precious and Holy Name.

In His Mercy,

Reverend Patrick Vossen

This message " Progress In His Plan " is an edited version of a previous recording which had been corrupted. We finally have been able to post it. Session Five and Six are being edited now, and hopefully all the background noise and some of the static will be cleaned up. This edited audio seems to be just perfect. God bless as you listen in on the series we had called Christ In Session.

CGMF Quarterly News And Personal Notes.

It has been an odd vacation week. First day I spent in an oral surgeon's office and then spent the next two days at home for the most part, because I couldn't drive with the medicine I was taking for pain. Then Thursday was a really busy day trying to fix computers, in addition to getting church business done before I left to Ottawa. Where I have planned to spend time with Adam and the church family at Christ Community on their Founder's Weekend. Not your usual relaxing vacation, but its working out just fine.

Had breakfast and plan to go down to the church for awhile soon. Adam and I have been chilling out for the most part this morning since we got up. Tomorrow we will enjoy special services at Christ Community Church.

Using Amazon Smile Charity To Benefit FBC.
October 18th, 2014

I wanted to encourage students and faculty members to let people know about Amazon Smile's charity program. Focus Bible College is already designated as one of the non profits, so you can buy and give at the same time to the college with a portion of your Amazon purchase being donated by Amazon to FBC. The easiest way for a person to take advantage of this opportunity and bless the school. Is by going directly to the Amazon Smile page. Then make your appropriate purchases and you will be prompted concerning what non profit you'd like to designate monies toward. Mention Focus Bible College, and proceeds will be given in some form to the school. This is an easy and wonderful way to assist the school, and help us in continuing to function and grow.

With the expenses of our recent move to Florida and our expansion forthcoming. It is quite a blessing to have the support of all of you in this endeavor. This will help us to continue to extend scholarships like we have in the past year, as well as other services. Without which many of our students could not have attended FBC or been a part of study programs without such assistance. Help us in continuing the work equipping young students, ministers and friends as they study with us at FBC.

Keep us in your prayers and thoughts. We have some wonderful new programs that will be coming your way this next year, its exciting days ahead for FBC Florida. We now have our Florida certification and are also accredited by ACI. Our school endeavors to be a strong Christian college devoted to excellence in Christian Education. No matter what denomination you come from we hope that this Spirit-Filled institution can help you in your service in the kingdom. 

Here is the direct link to shop through Amazon for your convenience http://smile.amazon.com/.
