FROM ZACH

As we reflect on the journey of our faith community since the fiscal year began on September 1st, we rejoice in a remarkable milestone: 10 baptisms have taken place at Rogers Christian Church in that short period of time, and we expect more in the coming days! Each immersion symbolizes a new believer stepping into the transformative power of Christ’s love, a testament to the Holy Spirit’s work among us. These moments of celebration remind us that our church is a living, growing body, where lives are changed through the grace we share. Whether it’s a child, a young adult, or a seasoned soul, each baptism echoes the call of Matthew 28:19 to make disciples. I probably don’t have to point this out, but if you’re calling yourself a church of Disciples Creating Disciples, it’s an absolute must that we’re actually being who we say we are. The world, maybe even our country, can sometimes seem like it’s in shambles. What hope is there apart from Christ?

It's been a chaotic several weeks for us. Church shootings/bombings. Political assassinations. Dionne Warwick sang, “What the world needs now is love, sweet love.” What the world can’t recognize is that true love exists only in the person of Jesus. So, we say, “What the world needs now is Jesus, sweet Jesus.” Paul asks the question, “How can they believe in the one they have not heard of? And how can they hear unless someone tells them?” In today’s world, where political climates spark intense conversations among friends and coworkers, we have a unique opportunity to share the gospel. Many are asking questions about justice, hope, and truth—questions that find their deepest answer in Jesus. Like you, I was shocked to hear of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. I rarely agree with everything anyone says, and Charlie Kirk fits that mold. What I admired about him though, was his boldness in sharing the gospel. Charlie did it in his own unique way. You and I probably won’t have a debate in front of a large crowd, but we still have opportunities. Our role isn’t to have all the answers about everything, but to point others to the One who does. Galatians 6:2 urges us to bear one another’s burdens, and sharing the gospel can be a light in these uncertain times.

Our Journey of Trust series is going extremely well. So far, we’ve talked about our tithe (returning 10% of the financial resources that God has blessed us with to Christ), spending (how we handle the 90% that God lets us keep), and we’ll spend two more weeks talking about how we spend our time and how we distribute love through our resources. I ask you to join our leadership in praying for a giving spirit to fall upon RCC. Following these two messages, we’ll have a special Q&A Sunday, where you’ll be able to text in your questions about Scripture, leadership, culture, etc., and I’ll address them during our services. We’ve done this once before, and it was a blast! Get those questions ready!

These baptisms, gospel conversations, and our stewardship focus all point to the heart of our mission: creating disciples who multiply. The example of leaders like Charlie Kirk reminds us that perfection isn’t required—only a willing heart to share God’s love. As we move forward, let’s carry this momentum into every interaction, whether at work or home, trusting that God uses our efforts to draw others near.

We invite you to join us weekly in our services, where worship, teaching, and fellowship await. Plugging into a C-Group will deepen your roots and connect you with others on this journey. Together, let’s continue to celebrate new believers, share the hope of the gospel, and grow as a church family committed to God’s call.
 
In Christ,
Zach

🍂 Agradecimiento e Invitación Especial – RCC

Querida familia de Rogers Comunidad Cristiana,

Quiero comenzar dando gracias a Dios y a cada uno de ustedes por lo que hemos vivido este mes. ¡Qué gozo tan grande celebrar juntos los bautismos y ver a hermanos y familias entregando sus vidas al Señor! Cada testimonio es un recordatorio del poder del evangelio y de que nuestra misión como iglesia —hacer discípulos— está dando fruto.

Ahora estamos entrando en una de mis temporadas favoritas: el otoño 🍁. Los colores de los árboles, tan vivos y variados, me recuerdan que todo tiene su tiempo. Los árboles pronto perderán sus hojas, y después vendrá una nueva temporada. Así también, nuestra vida espiritual tiene tiempos de cambios y nuevas etapas. Dios nos llama a disfrutar cada momento, porque todo es parte de su plan perfecto.

El año pasado tuvimos una celebración inolvidable de la Herencia Hispana en Rogers Comunidad Cristiana: compartimos adoración, testimonios, comidas típicas, y sobre todo, la unidad que solo Cristo nos da. Fue un tiempo para recordar que aunque venimos de muchas naciones, en Cristo somos un solo pueblo.

Este año queremos invitarte nuevamente a ser parte de esta hermosa celebración:
🎉 Festival Hispano / Hispanic Heritage Celebration
📅 Viernes 11 de octubre
⏰ 4:00 – 8:00 p.m.
📍 Rogers Comunidad Cristiana

✨ Celebra con nosotros la diversidad de nuestras culturas.
✨ Escucha testimonios de fe y esperanza.
✨ Comparte comida, música y alegría con tu familia.
✨ Y sobre todo, exaltemos juntos al Señor que nos ha hecho uno en su Reino.

📖 Apocalipsis 7:9 – “Una gran multitud… de todas naciones, tribus, pueblos y lenguas, delante del trono y en la presencia del Cordero.”

👉 Les pedimos que nos envíen un correo confirmando su asistencia, esto nos ayudará a organizarnos y prepararnos mejor para ese día tan especial.

Con gratitud y cariño,
Pastor Arturo Mejía
Rogers Comunidad Cristiana
🍂 Gratitude and Special Invitation – RCC

Dear family of Rogers Comunidad Cristiana,

I want to begin by thanking God and each of you for what we have experienced this month. What a great joy to celebrate the baptisms together and see brothers and families giving their lives to the Lord! Each testimony is a reminder of the power of the gospel and that our mission as a church—to make disciples—is bearing fruit.

We are now entering one of my favorite seasons: autumn 🍁. The colors of the trees, so vivid and beautiful, remind me that everything has its time. Soon the trees will lose their leaves, and then a new season will begin. In the same way, our spiritual life has times of change and new stages. God calls us to enjoy every moment, because it is all part of His perfect plan.

Last year we experienced an unforgettable celebration of our Hispanic Heritage at Rogers Comunidad Cristiana: we shared worship, testimonies, traditional foods, and above all, the unity that only Christ gives us. It was a time to remember that even though we come from many nations, in Christ we are one people.

This year, we want to invite you again to be part of this beautiful celebration:
🎉 Hispanic Heritage Festival
📅 Friday, October 11
⏰ 4:00 – 8:00 p.m.
📍 Rogers Comunidad Cristiana

✨ Celebrate with us the diversity of our cultures.
✨ Hear testimonies of faith and hope.
✨ Share food, music, and joy with your family.
✨ And above all, let’s exalt the Lord who has made us one in His Kingdom.
📖 Revelation 7:9 – “A great multitude… from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.”

👉 Please send us an email confirming your attendance. This will help us prepare and organize better for that special day.

With gratitude and hope,
Pastor Arturo Mejía

🌟 "No Tricks Needed — God’s Power is Real!" 🌟
We are so excited for everything happening in Children’s Ministry this month! While magicians and illusions can make us curious and amazed, the Bible reminds us that God’s power is greater than any trick. Just like Daniel and his friends during the Babylonian exile, we can trust God for wisdom, courage, and strength in every situation. This month, kids will discover how God’s power shows up in real life — no illusions needed!

Sunday Mornings: “No Tricks Needed” 🎩✨
This month, kids will dive into a 4-week series where we’ll learn from the life of Daniel and his friends. They stood out in a world full of magicians and astrologers — not because of tricks, but because they trusted God!
Big Ideas & Bible Stories
🧠 God helps us choose wisely. (Daniel’s Training in Babylon: Daniel 1; 2 Timothy 1:7–14)
🔥 God is ready to rescue us. (Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: Daniel 3; 2 Timothy 2:8–15)
✍️ God’s words show us what to do. (The Writing on the Wall: Daniel 5; 2 Timothy 3:14–4:5)
🦁 Our courage can help others see God. (Daniel in the Lions’ Den: Daniel 6; 2 Timothy 4:6–8, 16–18)

Wednesday Nights: “Recess — Growing With God” 🏃‍♂️🌱
For a lot of us, recess is the best part of the school day! We get to run, play, and spend time with our friends. In this 5-week series, kids will discover through the stories of Judges, Ruth, and 1 Samuel the unexpected ways God can help them grow. Just like recess helps us grow stronger and connect with others, God wants to help us grow in faith and friendship with Him.
Big Ideas & Bible Stories
💪 God helps me grow stronger. (Gideon: Judges 6–7; 2 Corinthians 4:5–9)
🤝 God helps me belong. (Ruth and Naomi: Ruth 1; Mark 3:31–35)
🙏 God answers my prayers. (The Birth of Samuel: 1 Samuel 1; Psalm 20)
📖 God tells me what is true. (God Calls Samuel: 1 Samuel 3:1–20; Job 38:1–11)
🎁 God can use anything I give. (Samuel Anoints Saul: 1 Samuel 9–10:1; 2 Corinthians 8:7–15)

Special Event: Light the Night! 🎃✨
Mark your calendars! On October 31st from 6:00–7:30 PM, our church will host Light the Night — an opportunity to love on our community, enjoy time with our church family, and share the gospel in a fun and engaging way.

We need LOTS of volunteers to help make this event a success!
Here’s how you can serve:
  • Lead fun activities for kids
  • Serve food and refreshments
  • Decorate a trunk and join our trunk-or-treat lineup

This is one of our biggest outreach events of the year, and we can’t do it without you. Sign up today and be a part of showing our community the love of Jesus in a joyful and exciting way!

Fall Volunteers Needed 🍂
We Need You in RCC Kids!
As our Children’s Ministry continues to grow, so does our need for faithful, loving volunteers! Right now, we are looking for people who are willing to invest in the next generation by serving in two key areas:
🔹 Sunday School Teachers – We now need teachers for both first and second service to help lead small group discussions and Bible activities with our K–5th grade students.
You don’t have to be a Bible expert—just someone who loves Jesus and is willing to share His love with kids! We’re asking volunteers to commit to serving just ONE Sunday a month. Whether you’re teaching a lesson, playing a game, or simply helping a child feel safe and welcomed, you’ll be making a lasting impact.
If you’re even a little curious about what serving might look like, I’d love to talk with you! Let’s build a team that helps our kids grow in faith while creating a safe, welcoming place for every child who walks through our doors.
👉 Interested? Come find me or reach out this week — we need you!

🍼 "Little Hearts, Big Faith!" 🍼
Our nursery is full of giggles, snuggles, and sweet reminders of God’s love! This month, we’ll be learning that God’s power is real — no tricks needed! Just like Daniel and his friends, even our littlest ones can know that God helps us, loves us, and is always with us.

Sunday Mornings: “God Is With Me!” ✨
Through songs, stories, play, and cuddle time, our babies and toddlers will hear simple truths about God’s love:
🧠 God helps us make good choices
🔥 God keeps us safe
📖 God’s words tell us what to do
🦁 God gives us courage
Even the smallest hearts can start to grow in faith when they hear these simple truths again and again!
