We don't live for things of this world, we live for what is to come. "This saying is trustworthy and deserves full acceptance. For this reason we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe." 1 Timothy 4:9-10

Covenant member, Kim Murawski, with permission shared a testimony from her time volunteering at the Socastee Food Pantry. “This is our friend, Victoria. She arrives early at the Food Pantry so she can have quiet time in her car with the Lord. She waits over an hour to be one of the first ones for food. She asked for prayer for health and housing. She was so thankful for all the food donations from Coastal Life Community Church!” The Socastee Food Pantry is one of the many organization CLCC supports through our congregation’s generous donations and time. You can donate to our Food Drive from March 10th-24th. For an updated list of needed items, check REALM. Your donations impact lives!

As we celebrate love today, we think of the one who wrote the book on it. "For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 What scripture comes to mind when you think of love?

Our Lighthouse Kids had so much fun gathering for a Valentine’s Day party at Coastal Life!

Last year, with your help, the Missions/Outreach Team was able to hold two “Food Drives” that benefitted the Socastee Food Pantry. In the spring, we partnered with the Coastline Women’s Center once again and sponsored our second “Baby Bottle Campaign.” Your donations allowed CLCC to present a check to them for $2719.96! In May, we introduced “Bless Market Common Day,” and so many of you rallied around our team and shared in this inaugural event. Our church provided box lunches to first responders and free car washes to those traveling along Highway 17 Bypass. Carpenter’s Hands completed a three-day project, and many of you participated in a “Prayer Walk” in Downtown Market Common where you witnessed the love of Christ to others. As the year continued and spring changed to summer, the CLCC Missions/Outreach Team partnered with a few other churches to provide lunches for six missionaries who were visiting the Myrtle Beach area with IMPACT Ministries. In the fall, we participated in Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child, and your generosity allowed us to pack 108 gift-filled shoeboxes to be distributed to children around the world. So many of you contributed items to fill these shoeboxes, and many of you gave up your Saturday afternoon to participate in a packing party at the church. If you’re like our team, you’re probably saying WOW by now – it’s truly amazing what happens when God’s people come together as a team! As we look forward to 2024 and the plans that our good Lord has in store for all of us, take a minute and thank Him for His faithfulness. He is a good Father! Thank you for an incredible year and may God bless you and your family abundantly as you begin the New Year. He is a God of miracles!

Happy New Year 2024! Be sure to check out all that is happening at Coastal Life this month in our January Newsletter. See you at Coastal Life this year! https://www.coastallifecommunitychurch.org/newsletters

To help make this possible, Coastal Life will offer specific groups for men, women, and groups that are co-ed. If you are interested in leading a small group, please let us know!

We have had so many wonderful opportunities to fellowship and serve each other this year. What was one of your favorite memories at Coastal Life in 2023? We can't wait to see you at Coastal life in the new year!

In our December newsletter we highlighted the Men’s Ministry and shared where in our Financial Plan of Ministry parts of your tithes and offerings go when you give to our church. Your generous gifts and offerings help make ministries like this possible! The name of our Men’s Ministry is Men of God and their goal is, “to help each other become stronger men of God by the power of the Holy Spirit working in and through us.” Their motto is “Iron Sharpens Iron.” Bill Macfarlane leads this ministry. Men of God typically meets every first Saturday of the month at The Garden City Chapel, however, the next meeting will be Saturday, January 13th at 8:30 AM. These gatherings consist of breakfast, worship, and guest speakers. The men have smaller groups that meet regularly throughout the year for Bible Study. Make a small group like this part of your plans for the new year! We have plenty of fellowship groups ready for you to join at Coastal Life in 2024!

With the year coming to a close, the Missions/Outreach Team plans to focus on ministering to the local community by holding another “Food Drive.” With food prices up, the number of people impacted by food insecurity is also on the rise. Our next “Food Drive” will be held from December 3-17, and all donations will be given to the Socastee Food Pantry located near CLCC. Nonperishable food items are always needed at food pantries, but the following are just a few suggestions: canned soups, canned chicken, canned tuna, peanut butter, dry cereals, instant oatmeal, crackers, cake/brownie mixes, pop-tarts, apple sauce, and fruit cups. (Canned food with pop-top lids is always a good choice.) The Missions/Outreach Team would like to say “thank you” to everyone who continues to participate in the “Food Drives.” These food donations are so appreciated by the Socastee Food Pantry as they help meet the needs of those less fortunate in the Myrtle Beach area. Also, our team would like to say a special “thank you” to our church family who volunteers time each week at the food pantry. Your hard work in stocking, organizing, and distributing the food is appreciated more than you know! The Socastee Food Pantry is a non-profit that provides food weekly to people in the community who are in need. Volunteers meet on Monday mornings to stock and organize food items, and distribution takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday. For more information on this ministry, visit www.socasteepantry.com.

This time of year we are reminded about how Christians are similar to pumpkins... God picks us from the patch, brings us in and washes us clean from the inside out, puts a new smiling face on us, and a light inside to shine for all the world to see! In every season, there is a chance to share the good news and to be a light in this dark world.

Dave is on the Missions/Outreach team, the Prayer Team for the IMAGINE campaign, and he’s the person in charge of Carpenter’s Hands. In fact, Dave is responsible for getting Carpenter’s Hands up and running for the church. Dave is also one of the church’s handymen! If there is a problem, he is one of the first people that we call. He helped lay the new flooring down in the welcome center and café. Dave has also spent countless hours helping us with our new building project. Born a twin on Valentine’s Day, Dave has one of the most unique baptism experiences! He was baptized in a coffin! He served in the Navy Band from 1965-1969, traveling Europe and the NE US playing flute, piccolo and saxophone. He played on the deck of a carrier for the return of the Gemini 10 space mission! Dave loves telling jokes! If you know him, you have probably heard about his Swedish friends, Sven and Olie. He has been married to his wife, Phyllis, for 52 years and they have 2 daughters and 5 grandchildren. The next time you see Dave, please give him a big THANK YOU! Also, ask him about the time he burned down his high school bleachers! To read our full monthly Newsletter, visit us online at www.coastallifecommunitychurch.org/newsletters

We are still thinking about all those baptisms last Sunday. What a blessing to know the Lord and to be called His forever! “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;” 1 Timothy 2:5

We are asking our Coastal Life members to consider taking part in our 24 hour prayer event, as we go to the Lord about our IMAGINE campaign. As you enter the building on Sunday, you will see the sign-up board. We ask that you choose an hour slot and commit to saying a payer during that given time. Prayer is one of the most important spiritual exercises we can do as the body of Christ because : 💙 Jesus demonstrated prayer! 💙 God commands prayer! 💙 God is glorified through prayer! Our goal is to have constant prayer over our IMAGINE campaign for these 24 hours. Will you pray with us?

This past Sunday we were excited to commission Danny Baker as an Elder of our Coastal Life team and we were blessed to hear his testimony and more about how he has been called to serve the Lord through Coastal Life. We are thankful for all our Elders and appreciate all they do for our Coastal Life family!

It was a beautiful day for baptisms at the beach yesterday! We welcomed 10 believers into our faith family at Coastal Life, and we were witness to the unexpected re-baptism of our Assistant Pastor… 🫣😂 Thank you to all our volunteers for helping serve at this event!

Ever wonder where your tithes and offerings are going? In our monthly newsletter, we focus on an area in our Financial Plan of Ministry and share a little about where the money goes when you give to our church. This month we want to share some information about the Waccamaw Baptist Association (WBA). CLCC became a member of WBA in 2022. Waccamaw Baptist Association is a local fellowship of Southern Baptist churches in our area committed to advancing the Great Commission. The mission of the WBA is to serve churches to help strengthen them, mobilize them for missions and to encourage the church leaders. Their vision is to see every life and community in the Coastal Region saturated and transformed by the hope of the Gospel through the cooperation of an association of churches committed to the Great Commission. Some of the values of the WBA include the power of prayer and dependence on the Holy Spirit and the potential of every church to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. WBA sponsors various mission projects including disaster relief, support for local church plants, Coastal Carolina’s Baptist Collegiate Ministry and Coastline Women’s Center. We have $1200 allocated in our Financial Plan of Ministry for the Waccamaw Baptist Association this year. When you give your tithes and offerings on Sunday mornings, or through Realm, you make it possible for us to support local ministries who are doing their best to advance the Good News of Jesus Christ. Thank you for your faithful giving!

As the year continues to unfold before us and summer turns to fall, the Missions/Outreach Team would like to remind everyone of the many ways we can volunteer to help others. Recently, this team created a brochure with a list of organizations that rely heavily on volunteers. You can pick up one of the brochures in the CLCC Welcome Center. It’s important to remember that the Lord doesn’t always call the equipped, He most oftentimes equips the called. Giving your time to help others is a great and rewarding way to honor God and show the love of Christ to others. Thank you for working with us to fulfill the Great Commission locally, nationally, and internationally. The following are 8 blessings we experience by serving others: 1. Serving allows us to discover and develop our spiritual gifts. 2. Serving allows us to experience miracles. 3. Serving allows us to experience the joy and peace that comes from obedience. 4. Serving helps us to be more like Jesus. 5. Serving surrounds us with other Christians who can help us follow Jesus. 6. Serving increases our faith. 7. Serving allows us to experience God’s presence in new ways. 8. Serving is good for your soul.

In our September Newsletter, we are excited to recognize Anita McCoy as our Volunteer Spotlight! Anita is one of our wonderful volunteers. She offers her time and talents to so many areas in the church! She teaches our Lighthouse Kids ages 6-12; she is on the CARE team; she helps with the Women’s Life Ministry; and she is on the hospitality team. Anita, and her husband Mark, also host a LIFE group in their home. She wears a lot of hats around CLCC! Some of Anita’s favorite things include preparing meals for friends in her home, playing cards and volunteering at assisted living homes. Anita doesn’t have any pets, but if she did it would be a bunny rabbit! The next time you see Anita, please give her a big THANK YOU! CLCC is so blessed to have such a devoted volunteer!

This past Sunday we were blessed to have guest Pastor Dan Hopkins preach to us on Psalm 73. The title of the message was, “Why Do the Wicked Prosper?” During this time we were reminded that the road to eternity with Christ is narrow, but the road the wicked travel is wide. We are to be encouraged by God's promise and goodness and to not fall into the trap of questioning the value of living a life for Christ. To view this service, along with previous worship gatherings, subscribe to our YouTube and watch Pastor Hopkins' full sermon here : https://youtu.be/Bb0xDgQOnqM?feature=shared
