SINGING CHRISTMAS TREE
Five more exciting performances of the Singing Christmas Tree this weekend. It's not too late to get in on it. Kick off your Christmas celebrations with this wonderful Sacramento tradition. This is our 55th consecutive year of presenting the Christmas story this way.
PARABLES OF JESUS
How do you deal with the disappointments of life? The parable of the persistent widow provides insights that are inspiring and potentially life changing. I'm looking forward to a special time in God's presence with you on Sunday.
CHRISTMAS WEEKEND
Our Christmas Eve service will take place at 5:00pm and Christmas Day we will have our regular Sunday morning schedule with services at 9:00, 10:30, and noon. When making your plans for Christmas it would be great to include family worship at Capital. No better way to celebrate the greatest gift ever given!
Philippians 2:14-16 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, "children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation." Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.

The Compassionate Father
Labels: 6:13 Prayer, California International Maraton, Capital Christian Center, God, parable, prodigal son, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree
PARABLES OF JESUS
Perhaps the most widely circulated story Jesus told is the parable of the lost son . . . better known as the prodigal son. It is more about the character of the father than that of the son. This Sunday we will study this parable and grow in our appreciation of the compassion we receive from our heavenly Father.
CIM ROAD CLOSURES ON SUNDAY
The California International Marathon is run this Sunday and requires the closure of roads along the race path. If you live north of the Sacramento River, you will want to check the road closures to be sure you can make it to church on time. Click here for the road closure schedule: http://blogs.sacbee.com/ticket/archives/2011/11/schedule-of-cim.html
6:13 PRAYER MEETING
We will continue the Wednesday evening prayer meeting through December with the exception of the final week, December 28. Join us if you can for this wonderful time in God’s presence.
SINGING CHRISTMAS TREE
What an amazing tradition we have of bringing the Christmas message to our community through the medium of creative arts. No better opportunity than this one to bring a friend to church.
Luke 15:23-24 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. So they began to celebrate.

Seed of Faith
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Doug Reid, God, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree, Souldesign
THANKSGIVING
We have so much to be thankful for. This week provides wonderful opportunities to express our gratitude to God and others. Sunday, Doug will continue our series in the Parables of Jesus with a look at the seed of faith. Then, Thanksgiving day we will celebrate our blessings at 10am with a communion service.
SINGING CHRISTMAS TREE
Invest in the lives of your family and friends and invite them to this amazing Christmas experience. I don’t know of a better way to communicate the Gospel at this time of year.
SOULDESIGN
Just a word of encouragement to use the tools provided to plan your week. Growing in faith, relationships, finances, health, and outreach does not just happen without being intentional. As we pursue the principles outlined in the book, calendaring them into our schedule for the week will make them come to pass.
Psalm 100:4-5 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

God and Me
Labels: 6:13 Prayer, Capital Christian Center, God, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree, Souldesign
SOULDESIGN
There is a spiritual consciousness in all of us that longs for something more than what we possess in and of ourselves. Left to myself, I drift toward destructive thoughts and actions. I know I need God in my life. I want God in my life! He makes things right in me. One thing I know, when I am focused on pursuing God, I am at my best. This week we will take a look at planning our week to include our pursuit of God’s best. Invite a friend and join us at 9:00am, 10:30am, or 12:00pm.
6:13 PRAYER
Every Wednesday we meet for prayer at 6:13pm. It is a wonderful time of worship, meditation, and prayer to our Almighty God. This is an important hour in the life of our church each week. God responds to our prayers. Let’s worship Him and ask for His power and blessing!
SINGING CHRISTMAS TREE
The box office is open for this year’s celebration of Christmas. This is a wonderful event to bring friends to. I’m looking forward to seeing you there!
Psalm 27:4 One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.

Labels: California International Maraton, God, Port in a Storm, Rick Cole, Run for a Reason, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree

PORT IN A STORM. Winter shelter for the homeless who would be left on the streets without our help. We are opening our doors next week, Sunday through Saturday night. If you would like to help, stop by the Outreach kiosk in the Lobby on Sunday or call our office on Monday for more information. The primary responsibility is hosting our guests from 5:00 pm each evening until 10:00 pm.
RUN FOR A REASON. I will be running the California International Marathon on Sunday with our Be Change running team on behalf of the children of Oak Park. I am moved by the innocence of these children and compelled to do what I can to give them hope for their future. If you would like to donate to this cause, you can do so online at www.grouprev.com/rickcole.
YEAR-END GIVING. As we come to the end of 2010, it is good to consider giving a little extra to further the mission of our church in the city and the benefit from the charitable giving tax benefits available. It truly is more blessed to give than to receive. Maximize your joy this Christmas season through giving. We are looking forward to awesome experiences in worship all month long.
LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS. We kick off this Christmas season on Sunday with a fresh look at what Jesus came to bring to our world. Don’t miss this day of inspiration and reflection. Every time we meet together to focus on Jesus, something wonderful is bound to happen.
John 1:4-5 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Uncommon Family
The adrenalin is building for the second weekend of the Singing Christmas Tree. Celebrating the birth of our Savior in this dramatic way is a great privilege that we have enjoyed for the past 53 years. He is worthy of all the attention. There are still seats available if you would like to attend.
Sunday, Cathy and I will be speaking about pursuing an Uncommon Family. We are looking forward to encouraging you with God’s Word and we are believing for a great experience in His presence.
Ephesians 5:1-2 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Jesus Loves Sin City
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Christmas to the Streets, Craig Gross, God, Jesus Loves You This I Know, Las Vegas, outreach, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree, Strip Church
Craig Gross, co-author of "Jesus Loves You This I Know", will be with us Sunday to share his story of reaching out to people who are derailed by the temptations of Las Vegas. He has opened the Strip Church in the heart of the city that never sleeps. Craig is an excellent communicator with a message of hope for a life of freedom. Invite a friend to join you this week for a great experience in God’s presence.
This is a season with multiple opportunities for outreach. Christmas to the Streets reaches hundreds of people needing shelter, clothing, and food. It is a great way to express the love of Jesus to a hurting world. The VIP night at the Singing Christmas Tree is another outreach designed to touch the lives of hundreds more that find themselves in difficult situations this time of year. Please consider giving a few hours of your time for one of these wonderful expressions of God's love and compassion.
Matthew 24:34-36
"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'"

Uncommon Unity
Labels: Capital Christian Center, Family Fun Fair, God, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Singing Christmas Tree
FALL BACK TO MOVE AHEAD! We should have an incredible day on Sunday because of having an extra hour of rest. Set your clock back an hour Saturday night and set your alarm for Sunday morning to be on time for one of our three morning services. Our theme is "Uncommon Unity." We are unstoppable when we come together in agreement.
Saturday night is a wonderful opportunity to bring a family to our campus for the annual Family Fun Fair. It's going to be a beautiful Sacramento evening and an atmosphere of joy and blessing.
Another can't miss outreach opportunity is ahead with the Singing Christmas Tree. Invest in someone's life this year. Invite them to join you for a great evening of Christmas music and pageantry and include them in your pursuit of God’s grace.
Luke 2:14 "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
