Good Morning everyone. I'm very excited for Monday Prayer Requests. Can I pray for you today? SEND IT TO MY FACEBOOK INBOX!. Just between you, me and God. I'm taking prayer requests all day. Let's bring our needs to Him today. RAUL RODRIGUEZ

Can you judge a bean by it's cover?

2010-01-18T20:12:00.001-08:00

ok, yuck.....this was a game that Raul had the students play that could have ended pretty badly, but luckily it didn't. There were two jelly beans of each color, one tasted as it should (coconot, pear, ext...) the other was an imposter (baby wipes, skunk spray, ext...). The one I was most afraid of was barf.....it really made me cringe thinking someone might eat one that tasted like barf. No one ended up with barf but I know someone got baby wipes and even rotten egg....ugghhh

Just goes to show "you can't judge a book by it's cover."

Let's Get this year off to a good start!

Talents - Good or Bad

2009-09-20T20:01:00.000-07:00

Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. 1 Peter 4:10

Have you ever wondered how YOU can use YOUR talent(s) to glorify God? This is what we were left to ponder at the completion of theCity service this week. Raul put together a awesome video to show some crazy, unique, and mind blowing talents - you can see it on our FACEBOOK page (titled September 18th 2009) You have to check it out!

We are sporting the music from this past weeks service on the blog right now so stick around and enjoy all of the tracks. Join us live next week to hear more great songs like these performed live by theCity worship team.

One more thing, we would love to know about your talents and how you are using them. Just click Comments at the beginning of this post and let us know what your talents are. And if you are using them to impact others around you we want to know what you are doing.

Another great night! Join us next week for another impactful service and don't forget to bring a friend. Oh, and if you are not a fan of theCity yet on facebook BECOME A FAN and stay up to date on what is happening, upcoming events, ext.

Wooo Hooo! Opening night of "theCity" was a complete success.
Great music, great friends, great message. Thanks to everyone that made it out to for the first night.
Raul spoke about Faith and the road blocks that we encounter all the time because of our faith. It was really inspiring and a great reminder that it isn't always easy but totally worth it.
I wonder what he has in store for us next week….can’t wait to find out. Join us every Thursday, 6pm at Bigfork Chapel; don’t forget to bring a friend.
