A Spiritual Visionquest for First Christian Church in Weeping Water 2010

We will continue in 2010 as a church of contagious joy creating an atmosphere where joy and miracles happen doing what we can and God calls us to do. We vow to pray more and help young people find real happiness and purpose in their lives.

Outreach/inreach continue to happen in our missionary church--visit us in Weeping Water. Sunday worship at 10:30 a.m.    Help us grow in grace, joy, peace, and love. 

As Dr. Jim McReynolds begins his 5th year as pastor, First Christian Church will feature music groups that are contemporary and/or classical as well as the Nebraska popular Southern gospel music.

We are a local, state, world mission-minded church.

Local Ministries: Food Bank in Elmwood, see Elder Keith Hammons

Blood Bank: twice each year, for people giving blood for those needing it at hospitals, nursing homes, for life needed situations.

More than 50 various outreach ministries done by members of our First Christian Church in Weeping Water.

Help us create joy during these lean times. Current project is a new roof and fixing worn out wiring in our church.

Share a gift of $30,000 and the roof and wiring will be complete. We seek transformation in our ministry through more prayer, revision of worship, and opening ourselves to others. 

A visionquest is a renewal or revival for a church or any organization desiring a fresh message of creation of joy and happiness in life through Christ.

Thousands of visionquests have happened during his 57 years of preaching ministry.  He will speak in colleges (a campusquest) or in a church (spiritual visionquest) or a prison (spiritual prisonquest) or business or hospital (healingquest.)

His has been a long time of spiritual journeying.  He  has energy, creativity, and insight to deliver excellent books, preaching, teaching, counseling, and other avenues of communication. You and your church will be much happier from his years of research.
