RACE FOR A MISSION
Randy Cole, Mike Mellott, Doug Reid, and Chris Thomas are nearing their goal of riding their bicycles from coast to coast! Continue to pray for their safety and strength as they near the finish line. They should be arriving in Annapolis, Maryland, early Saturday morning. They will have covered 3,000 miles in 6½ days of continuous riding. You might want to consider donating to the cause of providing clean water, food, and education for those in need. You can donate through the R4M website at www.raceforamission.com. It would be a great encouragement to them as they complete this amazing ride.
REVELATION
We complete our study of Revelation on Sunday as we study the final two chapters. I am looking forward to a wonderful time of worship and encouragement as we look into what God has planned for our future. It is truly awesome and beyond inspiring!
JULY 3
We are inviting all military and law enforcement to consider coming in uniform for this Independence Day celebration. We will honor all public servants who defend and protect us at home and abroad.
Psalm 121:7-8 The LORD will keep you from all hard – he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

Loving the City
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Character Combine, Evening of Dreams, God, Love, Race Across America, Race for a Mission, Rick Cole, Sacramento church
I am struck by the scene described in Luke 19 when Jesus approached the city of Jerusalem and wept over it. He so wanted the people to understand His love for them and the difference He could make in their lives. There are days that I am moved when I look over our city, people rushing around oblivious to the amazing love of Jesus. So, we are doing our best to reveal His love everywhere we can. Here are some of the latest expressions from our Capital family to our city:
CHARACTER COMBINE
Over 700 coaches and athletes gathered two weeks ago day to receive inspiration from Jason Harper, Jamie Whitmore (three-time triathlon champion and a cancer survivor), Kevin Bracy (nationally recognized motivational speaker), Troy Ellerman (author of Forging Iron), Mark Munoz (Ultimate Fighting Champion), Jerry Manuel (former Major League Baseball manager for the White Sox and Mets), Anthony Robles (NCAA wrestling champion born without one leg). It was an amazing day of giving love to our community so they can pass it on in their areas of influence.
EVENING OF DREAMS
This Saturday we will host a prom for 150 special needs individuals. Each person has been matched with an escort to the prom from athletes and students around our community. It is going to be an amazing experience of making dreams come true.
RACE ACROSS AMERICA
Four men from our Capital family will be riding bicycles over 3,000 miles with a mission in mind. Their monumental effort will raise awareness for charitable giving to the cause of hunger, clean water, and education around the world. They will be featured on Good Day Sacramento from 6:30am to 10:00am next Thursday.
These are just a few of the many expressions of love to our community. I love the heart of our Capital family to express the love of Jesus in every way possible. Great days ahead!
Sunday we will hear from the leaders of our youth ministry. It is a special day to focus on children and students of all ages. It is great to see the commitment our youth have to loving Jesus. We will cap off the day with our annual spring children’s musical “Lifesong.”
Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Expanding Outreach through Missions
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Easter, God, Race Across America, Race for a Mission, Rick Cole, Sacramento church
We had a wonderful Easter experience this past week. Every gathering was special and impacting. A big thank you to the multitude of volunteers who assisted with communion, ushering, guest services, Easter egg hunt, choir, orchestra, choreography, technical services, Kidsville, nursery, and early childhood. We have a wonderful family and great things are accomplished when we all work together.
I am looking forward to meeting with you again on Sunday. One of my sincere desires is to experience God’s presence in a tangible way and grow more intimate in relationship with Jesus. I have that desire for you as well. It matters when we meet together. I am believing we will all be better equipped when we leave the church campus to live in harmony with our families and impact the world with love. This week is a great opportunity to expand our outreach through missions. One of our members told me this week that he made an increased commitment to missions three months ago. Since that time, his business has been miraculously blessed and has made significant profit during that time period. He attributed the business growth to his commitment to give to reach the world. I am praying that for all of us. It’s going to be a great day as we learn about the effort of Race for a Mission (R4M) to use the endurance bicycle Race Across America to raise awareness for helping hurting people.
Titus 3:4-7 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.
