A Note to CPCC Members...

Hospitality is a very important ministry at CPCC.  It is often the first impression that gives our guests a "window" into what we're all about, both during our Sunday morning worship service and through other community outreach opportunities.  The earliest Christians understood the importance of hospitality.  They welcomed each other into their homes when fleeing persecution and when traveling to share the gospel.  They ate together regularly so that the poor would be fed and in order to keep their new Christian identity alive in a hostile world.  They reminded one another, "Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!"  (Hebrews 13:2)

In the Book of Genesis (18:1-8), Abraham and Sarah are in their open tent under a tree in the heat when three visitors approach.  Abraham sees them and runs to meet them.  He brings water for them to wash their feet (important if you travel in the desert) and offers them a resting place in the shade.  He then runs off quickly to help Sarah prepare a big meal of cakes and tender meat.  He stands by as they eat.  Later in the story, we learn that they have welcomed angels.  In the context of their hospitality, Abraham and Sarah received the joy-filled promise that they would have a son in their old age. Somehow, it was God who came to them as a visitor in the midday heat.

The Bible ties the act of hospitality to promise, blessing and God's special presence.  If you would like to help show God's blessing to others, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for more information.
