Men's FraternityThe Men's ministry will present a unique learning opportunity beginning February 3rd, 2009 with Men's Fraternity. Doug McFarland will facilitate the study The Quest for Authentic Manhood. It is designed to help men come together and strengthen each other through weekly sessions that combine biblical teaching and small group interaction. It has been used successfully with thousands of men since its development in 1990 by Robert Lewis, pastor-at-large of Fellowship Bible Church in Little Rock, Arkansas. Click here to register online or click here to contact Rob Hole for more information. We look forward to what promises to be an exciting learning experience. Every Man Friday

This past weekend, more than 60 cars were turned away from our parking lot at the 11:00 am service at 8301 Lamar! If at all possible, we would love those who are able to ride the shuttle from the Broadmoor site just west of the church. In addition, please consider attending the 9:00 am service or visit our identical South Service at 127th and Blackbob in Olathe. This would really help free up seats and parking spaces at the 11:00 am service.
Ready to be inspired and encouraged to be the parent God has

Men, Valentine's Day is coming up! We have the perfect gift you can give her. Why not impress her with learning a new language? Seriously! We're not talking about any language like French, or Italian... We mean learning to speak her "love language"! There is a difference! We do have to warn you... it could change your relationship forever!
The Gathering took a winter retreat in Colorado in early January. Carl Madeiras spoke and the messages are currently being loaded on the Gathering's channel at 
Daniel Ryzhychenko with the History Makers Church (HMC) in Bryansk, Russia, recently reported that the HMC had a great Christmas outreach concert. (Christmas is celebrated on January 7th in Russia.) Daniel said that almost 150 people attended this special concert, and about 40-50 of them were non-believers. There was a great effort by all of their ministry teams. Leeza and Luba led the meeting, and Daniel presented a message about Christmas. This special meeting took place in the same building where HMC has their Sunday services. Lately, there have been about 60-70 people attending HMC on Sundays, so to have almost 150 there for the special concert was awesome! Before the meeting, they printed about 100 flyers and went on the street and invited people to this event. The program also included a birthday cake for Jesus! The structured part of the program went from 6-9 pm, but almost everyone stayed around until 10 pm and talked about how great the meeting was! At the end of the program, they had free tea for everyone! Click 
We recently sent out some updates via snail mail and several
came back undeliverable. Click 
Heartland Has Kids! We have lots and lots of kids at Heartland. We hope they all fall in love with Jesus but first we need to create a safe and fun environment so they can hear that Jesus loves them. To make it safe and fun we need adult and teen volunteers. Our highest need is for twice a month classroom volunteers. We could also use people who are willing to be a last minute phone call, even get pulled out of service, for those emergency situations when a volunteer doesn't make it to an assigned class. We will train you so you feel confident and competent. Thanks for considering how you can make a difference in the lives of kids and families by volunteering in Great Beginnings. Click 
Singles Serving Together is a cooperative effort to bring area singles ministries together to make a difference in our community. This effort is lead by singles ministry leadership of Heartland Community Church, Westside Family Church and Church of the Resurrection. Work is planned at the following sites: The Hope Center, Mission Adelante, Urban Scholastic Center, and TLC. Click
