I was reminded in a sermon this past Sunday of the importance of spending alone time with God (the audio from the Jan. 29 sermon should be available on the RHCCC website in a few days). The pastor read from Luke 6:12-19, where it talks about how Jesus went to a mountainside and spent the night praying to God. Then, when morning came, He chose His twelve apostles from among His disciples. Later on in the day, He and His disciples ministered to people from Judea, Jerusalem, Tyre, and Sidon. Reading this by myself, I probably would have skimmed over this whole passage, but my pastor reminded us to look at how Jesus spends His time. At nighttime, He spent time in solitude (praying with God); the morning was for community (calling His apostles); and the rest of the day was for ministry (healing disease, and curing people of evil spirits).
Not only is this a picture of how Jesus spent His time, it is a great reminder of where our priorities should lie. It is through our alone time with God that we are called into community, and it is also where ministry begins. To put it simply, think of it like this: SOLITUDE -> COMMUNITY -> MINISTRY. The former fuels the latter. With this in mind, your time spent with God in prayer and reading His Word is of utmost importance. So how is your personal relationship with Christ today? Are you valuing your time spent alone with God?

Dear KCCF Members,
Thank you for your patience in the NomCom formation process. Please be reminded of the next couple of steps:
1) Read over the responses of the candidates to the following three questions, and compare them to the responses collected from Pastors Allan McQuarrie, Mark Kotchapaw, and Kong Lo:
- What is the Gospel, and how has it affected your life?
- What is Biblical discernment?
- How has God led you to accept this nomination?
The candidate and pastoral responses:
2) Come vote on Wednesday, February 1st, in the KCCF Office (Queen’s Centre, Room A-620) at 7:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. Please make an informed vote based on the responses of the candidates. If you feel that any of the candidates should not serve on NomCom, feel free to indicate your reasoning on the back of the ballot, and please leave your contact information so that we can reach you.
Thank you all for participating in the formation of next year’s leadership Committee. Please continue to pray for the candidates, for God’s prompting of future Committee members, and for this body to bring glory to God.
Blessings,
-seph
