Royal Ridge Update  ::  May 16, 2012


A Note from the Pastor
 
Throughout 2012 we are intentionally emphasizing our core values from the Royal Ridge pulpit:
  • January: Prayerfulness
  • February: Family and Relationships
  • March: Joy and Hope
  • April: Goodness of God
Currently in the month of May we are emphasizing Honor.
 
This statement by Bill Johnson so excellently captures this theme: "A culture of honor is celebrating who a person is without stumbling over who they're not."
 
May we all become much more intentional about cultivating and releasing a culture of honor.

 
Blessings in Jesus!

 
J. Randolph Turpin, D.Min.
Lead Pastor


This Weekend

Patti Friedlander writes: 
 
I am well aware of how to live in this physical body. It is the spiritual part of this being that has captured my attention. What is possible through me in the Holy Spirit?  How can I move with His promptings? I want that to be the new "norm."  
 
Oh Lord, let me discover You in me more and more!... not for my sake, but for the sake of those who have yet to enter into the Body of Christ. I get one chance on this earth to be all that You have made me to be--to impact the world with Life. Oh Lord, have Your way!    
 
If He's prompting you to join us, please do. This is the day He has made--a day of salvation--a day to break the chains that bind.  And we get to co-labor with Him in His work of Life.  He will do it!  Yes, He will!  And we will walk away with a new "norm."

 
Let's meet at the church at 10am. From there we will head to downtown Portland and conduct our outreach in teams. Plan to be out on the streets for two hours, ending around 1:30pm. FMI, call Patti at 839-4496
