October Review

Our conference weekend two weeks ago was a huge success!  Michael Brodeur spent his weekend training our leaders and staff on how to help people achieve their personal and corporate destiny!  We are so blessed to have a spiritual father impart his wisdom and experience with us to help us grow as a church.

It couldn't have happened without the hard work of so many people behind the scenes.  On Sunday, October 11th, we hosted a 'Jammin' While We Work' clean-up party.  An energetic crew of volunteers rounded up extra tables, chairs, cabinets, sofas, and miscellaneous housewares for donations.  We also organized things that we want to keep.  Doing this was fruitful and benefits that we can all enjoy, including a brighter, more spacious family room in the back of the church, a green room for the worship team, and de-cluttered pass throughs and hallways.  A special thanks to Noel, Riley, and Simon who came out mid-week to help finish the job and load up the dumpster!  

An another note, come on out this Saturday night and spend your Hallow-evening with us watching 'Holy Ghost Reborn'!  The doors open at 6:30pm and the movie starts at 7pm.  There will be food and prizes... Pastor Matt knows how to throw a party.  FREE!  Bring your friends, neighbors, and co-workers!  

Blessings,
Jennifer Eaton

Loving with No Strings Attached  

By:  Kari Kauffman

          It’s amazing how many people will show up on a hot day for a cold bottle of water!  A few of our CaB church members grabbed water bottles and hit the streets, connecting and praying for people along the way.  Others stayed back just outside of Collins Thrift Store with a table stocked with pink lemonade, waters, cookies, and chips to give out and show love to our neighbors in Irvington.  We talked with people who were walking by or waiting for the city bus.
          Penny, one of the people we encountered, just started a 12-step program.  She wanted prayer that she would stay true to her program and true to God.  We took the opportunity to bless her and remind her that she is loved by God and that he is proud of her.  Seeing the presence of God come upon her was so precious! I love those moments!
          Another person who received prayer was a man with hip pain.  At first, no breakthrough was seen.  The team persisted to pray and believe for healing.  A few minutes later, he was able to stand up straight and walked off with significant pain relief. Praise Jesus!
          People are hungry to know God and whether they realized it or not, they want to see Him move!  They are waiting to hear how much they are loved and are sons and daughters of God. That is why we do what we do.  It’s not about promoting our church or help us feel good about ourselves.   We’re there because we love Jesus, and we love our city, and we want our people to know how much they are loved by their Heavenly Father!  We invite you to join us on Saturday, October 3rd from 1pm-3pm for our next outreach and help us accomplish this mission!

 Riley Helmuth and James Gregg pray for a man carrying a cane on September 5, 2015 in Baltimore, MD.

This Just In...

A Message From Pastor Matt


Hey CaB Family, 

Julie and I are so glad to be home!  We visited two states and another country (Canada) in the last two weeks.  

First, I had the privilege of ministering at a Men's Retreat in Ohio.  Next, I spent a few days with Harold Eberle and Penn Clark at the New York Camp Meetings.  Then, we finished our trip in Canada speaking to the youth at 'Elnora Road Community Church' and spent some down time riding horse with the kids.  

We have missed our Sunday mornings together with you.  There really isn't any place like home!  We are looking forward to the next few months as we launch 'Destiny Finder' Small Groups, knowing that we will be growing as a church together.  Be encouraged!  The future is looking bright.

Pastor Matt

'The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.'   Proverbs 4:18

Hot Off the Press!

A message from Kelly Wilhelm about last night's Prayer Walk at Beechfield

"Thanks to all who came out to the prayer walk at Beechfield Elementary Middle School!  We had a great time releasing the Holy Spirit around the campus and inviting God to have his way in the school.  Then, we met back at the front of the school and did a group prayer and gave prophetic words over the school!  Words such as: a bully free zone, freedom for kids when they walk through the door, and a school that creates people of power such as presidents and delegates, etc.  We are excited to see these words come to fruition and will keep you posted!  Thanks again for supporting our neighborhood school and the teachers!"





















Kelly Wilhelm passionately leads eleven participants from 'Church at Baltimore' in a time of prayer for Beechfield EM School prior to the onset of the school year on Tuesday, August 18, 2015.  Photo taken by Julie Stutzman
