Foundations is a young adult ministry for anyone post high school through mid-thirties. A lot of times this age bracket is easily forgotten which is why the ministry was first created. This life stage is one of the most critical turning points in our lives so why do it alone? Let's seek Him together and build up foundations for the rest of our lives! Join us at our next event!

Hi everyone!
Foundations is serving at Father Serra's again this Saturday, the 12th. We still need about 5 people to sign up. This is a great time to meet others from Foundations and serve those in need at the same time.
We are planning on serving in the morning at the usual time of 7:30AM and when we are done, we can go over to Doheny for the Beach Party. We can carpool if anyone would like.
Foundations has teamed up with Father Serra’s and committed to serve on the 2nd and 5th Saturday of every month (when there is a 5th Saturday). This is a great opportunity to serve those in need and at the same time get to know some more people in Foundations. While we are there, we setup the tables and shelves to prepare food (beans, rice, canned food, fruits and vegetables) for people to take home in bags and then clean up afterwards. The serving time is from 7:30AM to 12noon. Here is the address: 31611 El Camino Real, San Juan Capistrano We need sign ups for the next Saturdays, the 29th of August and 12th of September so if you are able to serve please contact David Urquhart at deverynewday@gmail.com or (661) 717-5156.

"We find joy when we partner with other believers in the work of the gospel"
(Philippians 1:1-11)
There were 5 key points Pastor JP noted from this scripture:
1- The church needs SPIRITUAL LEADERS (vs.1&2)
We MUST have spiritual leaders within the church, here are some key verses that go deeper into this:
1 Timothy 3:1-13; Ephesians 4:11-12; 1 Corinthians 12:27-30; Acts 6:1-7
JP explained that this is the only time in which Paul says anything about the "groups" in the church- he is trying to make it a point that what he is about to say is relevent to EVERYONE in the church, including those who are spiritual leaders
2- We need to PRAY REGULARLY for one another (vs.3-5,9-11)
Paul tells the church in Philippi about how he prays for them and he thanks God for them. He tells us a prayer that he prays in vs.9-11- this is a great prayer for us to read over and use this as a reference for how we ourselves can pray for one another (including the leaders of the church)
3- We gain CONFIDENCE when we see God at work in out lives and in our church (vs.5-7)
When we are praying for each other and the church and then we see prayers answered- or see God at work, we gain confidence (in our own faith).
4- Sharing the gospel is a TEAM EFFORT (vs.7)
We are, as JP said, on "Team Jesus"... what is your role, what is your part on this team? We all, as a church, have to share the gospel- AS A team. We have to work together to reach others who have not heard the Word of God.
5- When we share in ministry with one another, it fills us with GODLY AFFECTION (vs.7&8)
Godly Affection: center of the deepest feelings (tender mercy, love, and compassion). God wants us to be filled with these deep feelings that we can gain by sharing in ministry with one another. Paul shows us how he himself is filled with godly affection in this passage.
SO... we ALL benefit in this:
God is glorified by us praying, by the joy we find in it, and in the ministry we share together,
Others are blessed by our prayers,
We find joy in the connection we make by praying for one another.
For this blog: Leave us a story/example of how this may have or is applying to you in your life. Maybe you have experienced joy by praying for someone or gained confindence in your faith by seeing God at work, we would love to hear about it.
...OR whatever else- comments, additions... any thoughts-feelings :)
Hey guys and gals!
Our next Foundations event will be the morning of Saturday, April 25th. You will not want to miss this one... It will be a hang out day where the guys and girls go their separate ways!! Guys... hang out with other dudes and spend the morning doing super manly stuff! Gals... spend the morning with other ladies and talk about guys! Last year the guys ate a hearty breakfast then hit the park for some ultimate frisbee, while the girls spent the morning getting pampered... everyone had a blast!
We have a couple ideas for this year, but the suggestion box is open! Leave us your comments and feedback about what YOU want to do this year!
Guest Speaker Pat Spoke on "Choosing the Cross" this Sunday. We need to make a life decision to choose the cross over the crowd. But in doing this we have to change our lives- we have to choose the cross in everything we do, every day, every decision we make... As Pat said, we need to think what would we do if Jesus was standing beside you? In everything we do we need to ask ourselves this question.
I really liked the acronym that Pat used and the bible verses to go along with it;
C- Come to the cross (Matthew 11:28)
R- Rely on His strength (Philippians 4:13)
O- Offer yourself (Romans 12:1)
S- Seek Him first (Matthew 6:33)
S- Surrender your will to His (Mark 8:34)
I think that we should all read these verses daily and try to remember them throughout our daily lives, not only this week, but each day of our lives ahead.
Please use these weekly blogs as a way to be totally H.O.T. with one another- "Honest Open and Transparent". Feel free to comment, share, ask for prayer... whatever!
If anyone has questions- We would really like to start to challenge our "Answers Ministry" at Crossline, so please feel free to ask questions and we will get you answers! If you would rather ask them yourself, let me know and I will get you their e-mail address.
Crossline's Women's retreat is quickly approaching and there is STILL ROOM for sign ups! Renee Swope will be speaking on "UNAFRAID: Without a Doubt, Living Confidently in Christ."
When: April 17-19th
