Subscribe to the church calendar

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

The church is now using Google Calendar for all events. This means that the event listing on our website will be much more up-to-date. We can plan events far in advance and they will always show up on our website calendar correctly.

Rather than checking the website regularly for changes you might be able to “subscribe” to our calendar and have the appointments show up in your favorite calendar program on your personal computer!

If you are using Microsoft Outlook 2007, choose [Tools] – [Account Settings] and click the [Internet Calendars] tab.  Now type in this calendar address: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/office@centerpointmesquite.org/public/basic.ics

If you are using a mac, you can subscribe to our calendar so our events will show up in the mac calendar application called iCal.  In iCal click on the Menu [Calendar] – [Subscribe...]  In the calendar URL field type this address: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/office@centerpointmesquite.org/public/basic.icspicture-4

Just one more way we want to help you stay connected to the church.

Help the Homeless

We are constantly in need of toiletry items for the homeless (toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, brushes, etc.). Bring them anytime and drop them off in the basket in the hall.
Dallas Pregnancy Resource Center

You can help the DPRC by recycling your old cell phones and used ink cartridges. Simply bring them to Centerpoint and drop them in one of the baskets at the Information Center.

Current Series: Heartbeat for the Kingdom

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Heartbeat for the Kingdom

A thorough physical exam always includes a timing of the pulse and a stethoscope to the chest. Clearly, one’s heart condition is critical to good health in this life. Like that physical heartbeat, our spiritual heartbeat is equally critical to a healthy life. During the first 4 months of 2009, we want to check up on our heartbeat for God’s Kingdom. We won’t use stethoscopes and stop watches, but we will see how our heartbeat measures up to the standards of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. We will be challenged to develop a heartbeat for the future kingdom that is evident in our present daily life. Throughout the series, we will examine our internal values and our external actions. You will want to check your heartbeat with us every week!
