Frontline Team: Get Connected
MISSION: As a community with other like-minded churches, we want to help people connect with God and others and provide opportunities to serve others with the love of Jesus through PRAYER, CARE and SHARE.
Owe nothing to anyone -- except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor you will fulfill the requirement of God's law. Romans 13:8
Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19

IN THE WORLD
- On a Trip
Scottie Christie – Youth with a Mission Discipleship School in Cancun. Sept 25 – March 2010. The first 3 months will be in Cancun in the Lecture Phase, studying different forms of ministry and doing small outreaches in the area. Starting in January, she’ll be going on a 2-month outreach in Africa where the team will use what they learned in Cancun to help others and bring the love of Jesus to the world. Scottie feels God has called her to go work for Him in the missionary field, and she’s more than excited to follow His lead.

MORE INFORMATION
Food Boxes
Our vision for giving out food boxes is to be an ongoing, relationship outreach to those in need. Ultimately, we see this ministry connected to Love INC of the Boise Community. Our boxes are designed to feed a family of four for several days.
If you’d like to help with this project you can:
- Designate a check to “Food Boxes” and send to the church. An entire box costs approximately $50, buy any amount will help.
- Pick up an empty box from the church and an item list and purchase the items for a box and assemble it yourself and bring by the church. If you want a tax deduction for the box, you need to get a receipt from the office. You must keep your store receipts and the item list for the box.
- Bring empty “copy paper” sized boxes to the church.
- Volunteer to coordinate, shop or pack. (we’ll have links for each job and add corresponding ministry descriptions that can be downloaded.
If you need a box, please contact Rhonda Willoughby, 866-5706.
Book Buddies
During the school year we'll have Book Buddies at Jefferson Elementary. Faith in motion flowing into this neighborhood school to encourage reading skills. Every Thursday from 3: - 4 PM. You’ll read a fun story while the kids have a school supplied snack, they’ll read to you and then discuss questions that will be provided by the Reading Specialist (comprehension is key!) Education games that reinforce grammar, etc., will be provided to play for the last 10-15 minutes. Contact Idona Majors with questions and to volunteer, 938-6127.
Genesis Garden City Clinic
This clinic is a free medical clinic that meets the needs of some of the uninsured individuals in the Treasure Valley. They hold medical clinics on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. as well as some clinics during the day. We have an opportunity to volunteer at the clinics to offer prayer for the patients. It is such a blessing and opportunity to be able to pray with people for their medical needs as well any other needs they would like prayer for. It also provides us opportunities to share about Jesus and what His word says. If you would like more information or to find out how you can become involved please contact Rhonda Willoughby at 866-5706.
