Joshua Sanchez was sent home yesterday after many difficult months and by God's grace is doing much better.  On th other side, our sister Stella has been diagnosed with extremely advanced cancer and is really struglling at present and feeling pretty strong physical symptoms.  Our hearts go out to those in our midst who are struggling!  We are so grateful for a faithful God!  He knows what He is doing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the midst of all of this we are taking final steps of preparation for the work in Bridgeton.  It can seem overwhelming at times, all that must be done, but we are convinced that God has called us and that He will be faithful!  Lord willing we will open doors for services by the end of June!  How is it that our little church could be planting another church?  Only one answer!  God!  We know it's all Him and ALL the glory will go to Him! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Estos han sido días dificiles y a la misma vez emocionantes aqui en la iglesia Emanuel.  Josue Sanchez finalmente regresó a casa ayer despues de varios meses de lucha y por la gracia de Dios está mucho mejor.  A la misma vez, nuestra hermanita Stella ha recibido un diagnosis de cancer muy avanzado y de verdad está luchando con symptomas físicas ya muy fuertes.  De verdad nos unimos en corazón con nuestros hermanos que están sufriendo.  ¡Estamos agradecidos por un Dios fiel quien nunca falla!  ¡Él sabe lo que hace!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Aun en el medio de todo esto estamos tomando los pasos finales de preparación para la obra en Bridgeton.  Hay veces que parece inalcanzable y demasiado fuerte todo lo que se necesita hacer, pero estamos convencidos que Dios nos ha llamado y él será fiel.  Dios primero abrirémos las puertas para los servicios para el fin de Junio.  ¿Como es que nuestra pqueña iglesia pdría estar plantando una iglesia?  Hay sólo una respuesta: ¡Dios!  Sabemos que él lo está haciendo todo y toda la gloria es para él.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-588012001731486565?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/588012001731486565/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=588012001731486565' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/588012001731486565'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/588012001731486565'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/06/interesting-days.html' title='Interesting days'/><author><name>Tony</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01283265848214894272</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_1UjiE5SEuP8/SBDq9ZSYdoI/AAAAAAAAAFE/pDjDUoiQioM/S220/Julie+%26+I.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-3615194357345527580</id><published>2008-04-14T20:55:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:52.076-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Prayer for Joshua Sanchez</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/SAU-5L3PDII/AAAAAAAAAI0/A6vT4NrqgZA/s1600-h/Josh.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5189623297772293250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/SAU-5L3PDII/AAAAAAAAAI0/A6vT4NrqgZA/s400/Josh.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;On April 9th, Josh was in an awful car accident.

I have been struck of late with the way that within this body of believers the love and care of our Lord are expressed in time of need, and we are also able to share the mountaintops!  One of the wonderful blessings of the Christian life is to be “family” with such an amazing group of people!  Over the nine years that my wife and I have been here, we can truly say that this wonderful group of people has become almost closer and dearer to us than our blood family.  Let’s take the time to smell the roses!  Treasure the relationships around you!  Pour your lives into each other!  Reach out to draw into your lives the newer people God has brought us!  Here at Emmanuel, we are family!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;¡De verdad somos bendecidos con una maravillosa familia en Cristo!  Me he maravillado ultimamente de la manera en la cual este grupo de creyentes sabe demonstrar amor y apoyo en los momentos mas difíciles y tambien sabe compartir los momentos preciosos como familia.  Una de las grandes bendisiones que el Señor nos ha otorgado es ser parte de esta linda familia.  En los nueve años que llevamos aqui mi esposa y yo, podemos de verdad decir que este grupo ha llegado a ser mas casi cercano y precioso en nuestras vidas que nuestras familias de sangre.  Tomémos el tiempo de disfrutar las rosas.  ¡Goze las relaciones que tiene aqui.  Comparta de verdad su vida con las personas que le rodean.  Hagamos el esfuerzo de hazer las personas mas nuevas de verdad parte de este circula lindo.  Aqui en la Iglesia Emanuel ¡de verdad somos familia!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-7473717515644021934?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/7473717515644021934/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=7473717515644021934' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/7473717515644021934'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/7473717515644021934'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/03/march-2nd-what-family.html' title='March 2nd - What a family!'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R8yQSR6K0_I/AAAAAAAAAHk/OwASo08AFJM/s72-c/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-6466406012908598430</id><published>2008-02-26T11:36:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:53.439-05:00</updated><title type='text'>From Pastor's Desk  2/24 -- Two more years?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R8RAs6jvnLI/AAAAAAAAAHc/nUbpv2T0WYM/s1600-h/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5171329412505771186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R8RAs6jvnLI/AAAAAAAAAHc/nUbpv2T0WYM/s400/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; As I was reading the story of Joseph being sent to prison this week (Genesis 41) I was struck by this question:  Why after Joseph interprets the dreams of Pharoah’s two servants does God leave him in that cell for two more years?  Scripture simply says ...”two years later...”  Simple words, yet Joseph had to suffer through those two extra years one day at a time even though he was innocent!  I imagine Joseph had to struggle on many occasions with the same “why” questions that You and I tend to struggle with!  He may well have gone to his grave not fully understanding why God called him to suffer through those two long years.  At the end of the day we’re in the same boat!  There are things we may NEVER understand!  He remains a good God!  He is in control! Can You trust Him?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Mientras leia la historia de Jose siendo enviado a la carcel en estos días (Genesis 41) me hize esta pregunta:  ¿Porque, despues que Jose interpretó los sueños de los siervos de Faraón el Señor lo deja allí en la carcel por dos años mas?  La Bíblia simplemente dice “Dos años despues...” Palabras simples, pero Jose tuvo que sufris esos dos largos años, un día tras otro aunque era inocente.  Me imagino que Jose lucho varias veces con las mismas preguntas “¿porque?” Que nosotros enfrentamos tambien.  Puede que nunca entendio el porque de esos dos años.  En fin de cuentas nosotros nos encontramos en la misma situación.  Hay cosas que puede que nunca entenderémos.

Why is it that we so easily ignore our own frailty and walk around as if we had a 100 year guarantee?  Why is it that our decisions are seldom taken with the burning realization that this could be my last day on earth? Why do we seldom consider our mortality... Except for at someone else’s funeral, and then only in a passing way?  Each of us are living on borrowed time!  Each of us are called to the realization that we will answer for how we have used the time, talents and treasure that He has blessed us with!  Are you living for eternity?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;He sido recordado una vez mas esta semana en un manera muy real que la vida es corta y que mañana no nos es prometido.  ¿Porque ignoramos tanto cuan fragiles somos y actuamos como si tuvieramos una garantia de 100 años de vida?  ¿Porque parece que nuestras decisiones casi nunca son tomadas con la realización que este podría ser mi ultimo día de vida?  ¿Porque parece que no consideramos el hecho que somos mortales excepto en el funeral de alguien mas y entonces sólo por momentos?  Todos estamos viviendo momentos prestados.  Todos somos llamados a la realzación que un día muy pronto rendirémos cuenta por nuestro tiempo, talento y tesoro.  ¿Estás viviendo tu vida en la luz de la eternidad?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-6868663653249767964?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/6868663653249767964/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=6868663653249767964' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/6868663653249767964'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/6868663653249767964'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/02/pastors-desk-217.html' title='Pastor&apos;s Desk - 2/17'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R7kCoqjvnEI/AAAAAAAAAGk/BegrA8RNJqY/s72-c/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-4860876991828412857</id><published>2008-02-17T22:38:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:55.276-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Valentine Banquet</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;It felt good to laugh again!

There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;There is no denying that some of the things we are struggling through in our study in Romans are difficult topics and come from texts that can seem confusing.  I find comfort (to an extent) in the thought that Peter himself acknowledges the complexity of some of Paul’s arguments.  The most comfort, however, comes from the reminder that the Holy Spirit can supply us with all the wisdom necessary to study and apply His truths!  Let the complexity of the se passages humble you and drive you to Him!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;No se puede negar que algunos de los temas que estamos estudiando en Romanos son temas dificiles de pasajes que pueden confundir.  Encuentro consuelo (a cierto nivel) en el reconocimiento aun del Apostol Pedro que estos argomentos pueden ser dificiles de entender.  Mas consuelo aun encuentro en recordarme que el Espíritu Santo nos puede suplir la sabiduria necesaria para estudiar y aplicar sus verdades.  Dejémos que la complexidad de estos pasajes nos humillen y nos empujen a él.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-1870674581941646682?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/1870674581941646682/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=1870674581941646682' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/1870674581941646682'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/1870674581941646682'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/02/sunday-feb-10th.html' title='Sunday, Feb. 10th'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R7B5VKjvm7I/AAAAAAAAAFc/ICxEfeBSAzU/s72-c/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-5719947412964045055</id><published>2008-02-11T11:31:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:56.254-05:00</updated><title type='text'>From the bulletin on Sunday Feb. 3</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R7B45Kjvm6I/AAAAAAAAAFU/2aB25TyhwwY/s1600-h/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165761696076110754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R7B45Kjvm6I/AAAAAAAAAFU/2aB25TyhwwY/s320/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; If the Lord has placed you in this church it is to use your particular set of talents and gifts to further His Kingdom right here!  He has not placed ANY of us here to sit comfortably while someone else carries the load.  As we contemplate the tasks before us, may I ask you what your role is?  What is the divinely appointed part that You are to play in the vision of this church as we take steps of faith forward?  Are you using what God has given you as He intends or are you hiding it in your back yard?  I am SO proud of the spirit of unity that God is giving us as we step out by faith.  What a wonderful thing to see His people rallying to the work.  We need You though!  We are not complete without everyone doing their part.  There is power in unity.  Let’s go forward... Together!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Si el Señor te ha puesto en esta iglesia es para usar tus talentos y dones para avanzar su reino aqui.  No ha puesto a alguien aqui sólo para estar comodamente sentados mientras otros se encargan de hacer.  Mientras contemplamos la tarea por delante, le pregunto, ¿Cual es su papel?  ¿Cual es la parte que el Señor ha puesto para que Ud haga en la visión de esta iglesia?  ¿Esta usando sus dones y abilidades para el Señor o los está escondiendo?  Estoy TAN orgulloso del espíritu de unidad que el Señor nos ha dado mientras tomamos juntos estos pasos de fé. ¡Le necesitamos!  No estámos completos sin que todos hagan su parte.

Is our church that? I wonder if He truly views us as that. I wonder if others would say of our church that we are a people of prayer! The single most important service in the life of our church is our Wednesday prayer meeting. I challenge you, I beg you as your pastor, please come and pray! There is NO greater need than God’s people to pray. Some of you work and cannot. Others chose to stay home when you could be joining us in this place as we seek God’s face! Please join us this Wednesday! Why would you not?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;El Señor dijo: “Mi casa será llamada casa de oración.” No una casa de predicación, enseñanza, cantos, mas una casa characterizada por la actitud de oración. ¿Es nuestra iglesia lo que debe ser? Me pregunto si él nos ve como lo que el desea ver. El servicio mas importante en la vida de nuestra iglesia es el servicio de oración los Miercoles. Le reto, no, le suplico como su Pastor que ¡venga a orar con nosotros! No hay necesidad mas grande que el pueblo de Dios este orando. Algunos trabajan y no pueden venir, otros pueden venir y escogen quedarse en casa cuando podrían unirse al cuerpo de Cristo en oración. ¡Porfavor sea parte del servicio este Miercoles! Vengamos ante el trono del Señor juntos en oración.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-2680408717392098178?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/2680408717392098178/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=2680408717392098178' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/2680408717392098178'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/2680408717392098178'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/01/from-sundays-bulletin.html' title='From Sunday&apos;s Bulletin'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R59fWWHIJeI/AAAAAAAAAFM/-asQf0zayzQ/s72-c/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-3841190393918068576</id><published>2008-01-23T10:51:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:56.772-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Church Planting Training</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R5dkzWHIJdI/AAAAAAAAAFE/-CZzPgieAj8/s1600-h/Copy_of_BT_en_New_Jersey_1-18-08011.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158702731447772626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R5dkzWHIJdI/AAAAAAAAAFE/-CZzPgieAj8/s320/Copy_of_BT_en_New_Jersey_1-18-08011.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Last week we had out first of three weekends of training for church-planting.

Juan Kovalchuck and Bro. Alberto Hernandez. What a blessing it was to be challenged together and see the Lord expanding our vision as a church!

We do not preach a religion, we preach a personal, dynamic relationship with Christ!  We do not preach a ticket out of hell, we preach the practical every day Lordship of Jesus Christ in the life of the true believer.  So...  How is your daily walk with Him?  Are you growing to be more like Him every day?  Are you faithfully reading His Word and feeding your Spirit?  Do you have a disciplined prayer life?  Are you daily begging to be filled with the Holy Spirit?

No predicamos una religión, sino una relación personal y dinamica con Cristo.  No predicamos un escape del infierno sino el Señorio diario de Cristo en la vida del creyente.  Entonces... ¿Como esta tu diario caminar con el Señor?  ¿Estas fielmente alimentandote de la Palabra?  Tienes una vida de oración disciplinada?  ¿Estas pidiendo la plenirud del Espíritu cada día?

It is simply entitled "From Pastor's Desk." It was suggested this past week that we copy them unto the blog, so here is this week's instalment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Hemos incluido una seción nueva en el boletin semanal de la iglesia este año en el cual el Pastor comparte unos breves pensamientos de su corazón y lo hemos entitulado "de el escritorio del Pastor."

Guilty! These words and thoughts ran through my mind as I sat in a Bridgeton court this week observing the Judge holding court. I was reminded of the fact that I stand, without excuse before God! I have no hope of some fancy lawyer rescuing me or some technicality setting me free. As we have been studying in Romans, I AM guilty. I AM a wicked sinner! Oh praise the Lord for the salvation I have through the grace of Jesus Christ.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Juicio... Culpable. Estas palabras me corrían por la mente mientras estaba sentado en una corte en Bridgeton esta semana observando el juez. Me hizo pensar en el hecho que ante el juez del universo, yo soy “sin excusa”. No tengo esperanza que un abogado muy abil me pueda sacar o que me suelten por una technicalidad. Eso mismo hemos estado estudiando en Romanos. ¡Somos pecadores! ¡Somos culpables! Bendito sea Dios por la salvación que tenemos por la gracia de nuestro Salvador.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-1001302571303594331?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/1001302571303594331/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=1001302571303594331' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/1001302571303594331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/1001302571303594331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/01/we-have-added-feature-to-our-bulletin.html' title='From Pastor&apos;s Desk'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/R4voHp3wAII/AAAAAAAAAEk/Vc_w3O_6LII/s72-c/Pastor%27s+Desk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-6950015817237903024</id><published>2008-01-14T17:34:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T10:04:57.987-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Steve Green in Concert!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;Three years ago, our church was able to host Steve Green as he made his first trip to Vineland, NJ.

A new year to live for our Lord!  We are very excited about what God has for us this year!  There is so much to do!  We pray that He will guide us and empower us!   We long to see His name glorified as together we go forward for His glory!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;A major area of focus for us this year will be the ministry in Bridgeton.  In December we voted unanimously as a church to take steps of faith towards beginning a sister church in this needy place.  We had prayed together and sough the Lord's guidance.  Now comes the difficult part!  Voting yes is one thing, following through on the commitment and sacrifice is a whole different animal.  Let's ask the Lord to fill us with His determination and power to see this through!  For His glory!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;¡&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Aqui estámos!  ¡2008!  ¡Otro año para vivir por el Señor!  Estamos muy emocionados por todo lo que el Señor nos tiene por delante en este año.  Hay mucho que hacer.  Nuestra oración es que Él nos guie y nos apodere para la obra.  Anhelamos ver su nombre glorificado mientras juntos vamos en adelante por su gloria. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Una area de mucho enfoque este año será la obra en Bridgeton.  En Diciembre votamos unanimamente en favor de tomar pasos de fé para empezar una iglesia hermana en esta ciudad tan necesitada.  Hemos orado juntos buscando la voluntad del Señor.  ¡Ahora viene lo dificil!  Votar si es una cosa, poner el trabajo y sacrificio necesario para cumplirlo es otra cosa completamente.  Pidamosle al Señor que nos llene con su determinación y su poder para ver este sueño cumplido.  ¡Todo para su gloria!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-37972382850060171?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/37972382850060171/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=37972382850060171' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/37972382850060171'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/37972382850060171'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2008/01/happy-new-year.html' title='Happy New Year'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-1380504786777034696</id><published>2007-11-26T15:59:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-14T18:07:21.661-05:00</updated><title type='text'>So much to be thankful for!

Concluímos el servicio celebrando juntos la Cena del Señor y nos regocijámos en todo lo que Él ha hecho. ¡Él ha sido tan bueno hacia nosotros!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creo que cualquier persona que estuvo presente el Domingo salió de allí con un corazón muy agradecido por el grupo de jovenes de nuestra iglesia. El señor nos ha bendecido con un maravilloso grupo de líderes de jovenes quines se están encabezando de un precioso ministerio. No tenemos el grupo de jovenes mas grande de Vineland, pero ¡que grupo lindo de muchachos! ¡Estamos TAN agradecidos por ellos! Nuestros jovenes presentaron un increíble drama que dejo a los miembros de la iglesia en llanto y con corazónes agradecidos. ¡Jovenes, les queremos mucho! ¡Permanezcan fieles al Señor!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Si no ha visitado el &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.emmanuelbaptistonline.org/youthablaze.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;sitio en la red &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;de nuestros jovenes, le invito que lo haga.

Dr. Kovalchuk is a representative of the Southern Baptist Convention, and to make a long story short, they are ready to partner with us to start a church in this needy area. We are spending these months in uch prayer for specific direction from the Lord! Dr. Kovalchuk was our guest speaker this morning as our folks got to meet him and see his heart. Amazingly, he brought a message on grace... which if you've been following our study in Romans, you would know is exactly what we have been focusing on! God is so good! This is a good man, and we are excited about what the Lord may well have for us together for the advancement of His kingdom!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5126571037964074130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RyU9MoGnfJI/AAAAAAAAADo/1p_cHrESeFg/s320/Kovalchuk.jpg" border="0" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;¡El Señor hace cosas maravillosas!

Estamos dedicando estos meses para esta mucho en oración buscando la direción del Señor en todo esto. El Dr. Kovalchuk fue nuestro huesped esta mañana y compar'tió con nosotros la Palabra de Dios. Los hermanos tuvieron la oportunidad de conocerlo y oír lo que el Señor ha puesto en su corazón. Lo interesante fue el mensaje que el hermano nos trajo.

Our church is privileged to share in their ministry!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxggiSx0XaI/AAAAAAAAABs/hcHPX-EbJKw/s1600-h/Stensaas+New+2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122880349662371234" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxggiSx0XaI/AAAAAAAAABs/hcHPX-EbJKw/s320/Stensaas+New+2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also reporting during our conference were Bro. ALejandro Armijo and family from Chile. The Armijó family have been our missionaries for a dozen years. They are an incredible blessing and we are so blessed by this precious family. They will be moving on to a new work on their return to Chile after having established a thriving church in Santiago during this past term.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxgiXix0XbI/AAAAAAAAAB0/yJF3Sog0mms/s1600-h/A+Armijo+New.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122882364002033074" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxgiXix0XbI/AAAAAAAAAB0/yJF3Sog0mms/s320/A+Armijo+New.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are also excited about the addition of a wonderful couple serving with Campus Crusade for Christ. Austin and Laura Krokos have ties to this area as Austin grew up here. They are being used in a special way as they minister to the spiritual needs of college students and we are grateful to count them as our missionaries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxgjrSx0XdI/AAAAAAAAACE/lDUHVjISRXU/s1600-h/Krokossmall.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122883802816077266" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxgjrSx0XdI/AAAAAAAAACE/lDUHVjISRXU/s320/Krokossmall.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-7182926386457926232?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/7182926386457926232/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=7182926386457926232' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/7182926386457926232'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/7182926386457926232'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2007/10/missions-conference-07.html' title='Mission&apos;s Conference &apos;07'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_W53MxFtcZaA/RxggiSx0XaI/AAAAAAAAABs/hcHPX-EbJKw/s72-c/Stensaas+New+2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-8843643993175525082</id><published>2007-10-18T22:41:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-10-18T22:48:28.631-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Amazing open doors</title><content type='html'>We are SO thrilled with a series of open doors the Lord seems to be giving us for ministry! Over the last several months the Lord has allowed us to be on the radio for an hour every Sunday (from 4:00-5:00 P.M.) This has been afforded our church free of charge through the generosity of Don Francisco Torres Torres. We have been asked to continue to come indefinitely and fill this slot. We are so blessed with this opportunity to share Christ through this exciting medium.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are also setting aside the months of October and November to pray very specifically as a church about some very exciting possibilitites we see before us. We will soon share more information about this. We serve a God of miracles!!! He is constantly at work and simply seeks people who will seek above all else to bring honor to His name!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Tony&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6093012446070294418-8843643993175525082?l=emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/feeds/8843643993175525082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6093012446070294418&amp;postID=8843643993175525082' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/8843643993175525082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6093012446070294418/posts/default/8843643993175525082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emmanuelbonline.blogspot.com/2007/10/amazing-open-doors.html' title='Amazing open doors'/><author><name>EBC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05933316162649036197</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093012446070294418.post-4532432011842892703</id><published>2007-10-17T22:12:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-10-28T20:42:55.423-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Welcome to our blog!</title><content type='html'>We have made this blog available to keep you updated about what is happening at Emmanuel Baptist Church.
