Sun 07 Sep 2008 8:30 AM Detox Your Pace
SERMON SERIES Worship Time 8:30 & 11:00 AM More and more people these days are undergoing a detox. Toxins from our food and our suburban “habitat” build up in our bodies over time and can make us feel sluggish and discontent. A detox can help us expel these toxins and restore our physical health and vitality. All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health.

Sat 13 Sep 2008 9:00 AM I'll Step Up My Game For Michael
Dear Friends and Community: Over the holiday weekend there was a tragedy among our community and I am hoping to tell you the story so we can get the word out to as many people as possible to help a Mesquite family in desperate need. Early Sunday morning there was an auto accident involving three teenagers traveling back to college. Two walked away but one was not as fortunate. Michael Delgado, 17 years old, from Mesquite had to be freed from the car by using "jaws of life" and care-flighted to the nearest hospital, Scott & White Memorial Hospital in Temple, Texas. After undergoing 10 hours of surgery his parents were given the devastating news that he would never walk again. His injuries from this accident were so severe it has left him paralyzed from the waist down. He faces more surgeries and rehabilitation. Michael was featured in the Mesquite News last year for his college signing to play soccer at Howard Payne University. He was a varsity soccer player

All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health.

Peripheral Arterial Disease, according to Dr. Akram Khan, M.D., Medical Director and Chief of Cardiology, at The Center for Preventive Medicine North Texas, is a blockage of the arteries supplying blood to the legs that can cause pain, numbness and difficulty walking.  PAD affects an estimated 8 to 10 million people in the U.S. yet most mistake the symptoms for signs of aging.  The most common symptom of PAD’s is leg pain while a person is walking or exercising that stops when the person is at rest.   “Early detection and management of peripheral arterial disease, or PAD’s, can prevent the progression of the disease which can often lead to painful walking, gangrene, amputation, heart attack or stroke,” according to Dr. Khan.   Dr. Khan and his staff are concerned about the lack of testing that is performed for PAD’s and they are furnishing FREE Testing during the month of September at different locations around Collin County to support the annual “Legs For Lif

Please join us when Kathleen Kent discusses and signs her new release, The Heretic's Daughter. This thrilling novel features Martha and Sarah Carrier. Martha Carrier was one of the first women to be accused, tried and hanged as a witch in Salem, Massachusetts. Like her mother, young Sarah Carrier is bright and willful, openly challenging the small, brutal world in which they live. Often at odds with one another, mother and daughter are forced to stand together against the escalating hysteria of the trials and the superstitious tyranny that led to the torture and imprisonment of more than 200 people accused of witchcraft. This is the story of Martha's courageous defiance and ultimate death, as told by the daughter who survived.

You are invited to attend a free recital on Saturday, Sept. 20, at 6 p.m. celebrating the contributions of Giacomo Puccini to the vocal art. The recital will be held in the Performance Hall at North Lake College. Puccini had the great gift of melody and a wonderful sense of drama. His music has maintained a lasting appeal to audiences over the years. According to author William Berger, "...one fourth of all opera performances in the United States are of three of Puccini's most popular operas (La Boheme, Tosca, and Madama Butterfly)." The program will be approximately 1 hour in length and will feature arias from Le villi, Edgar, La Boheme, Manon Lescaut, Gianni Schicchi, Tosca, and Turandot. The recital will also include many lesser known art songs penned by Puccini throughout his career. Bring your family and friends as we celebrate this important milestone!

SERMON SERIES Worship Time 8:30 & 11:00 AM More and more people these days are undergoing a detox. Toxins from our food and our suburban “habitat” build up in our bodies over time and can make us feel sluggish and discontent. A detox can help us expel these toxins and restore our physical health and vitality. All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health.

Sat 27 Sep 2008 8:30 AM Indigo Nation
“Imagine all the people living life in peace,” sang John Lennon in Imagine. September marks the Season of Non-Violence. Lonna Bartley, founder of Humanity101, said, “Peace is only possible when we each live at peace with ourselves. When we heal the demons of our past and forgive others for their trespasses against us, peace will exist within. Peace is not possible unless I have peace within myself and then extend that peace to others around me!” Bartley has a Masters of Divinity degree in Spiritual Peacemaking and felt an urge to help the Dallas community by creating a conference for families and others who are ready to look at their lives with a holistic perspective. Indigo Nation Conference is scheduled Sept 27, 2008 at the Center for Spiritual Living, 4801 Spring Valley Road, Suite 115, Dallas, TX 75244.

Sun 28 Sep 2008 8:30 AM Detox Your Wants and Needs
SERMON SERIES Worship Time 8:30 & 11:00 AM More and more people these days are undergoing a detox. Toxins from our food and our suburban “habitat” build up in our bodies over time and can make us feel sluggish and discontent. A detox can help us expel these toxins and restore our physical health and vitality. All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health.

At the fast-casual restaurant, guests build their salads in virtually unlimited combinations from more than 50 freshly-cut ingredients, including various types of salad, vegetables, fruits, nuts and cheeses.

Duncanville, Texas —Members of the Duncanville Firefighters Association and the Citizens Fire Academy are embarking on a 363 mile trek from Corpus Christi to Duncanville to raise money and cancer awareness. Inspired by the courageous fight of Captain Tim Riffe who was diagnosed with colorectal cancer several months ago, Duncanville firefighters organized the “Ride for Riffe” bicycle trip in an effort to raise money to aid Captain Riffe in his battle with cancer. Cycling on average 50 miles a day, eight riders will begin their journey on Saturday, September 28, and will arrive in Duncanville on Saturday, October 4. For Patrick Stubbs, firefighter and logistics organizer for “Ride for Riffe,” supporting Captain Riffe with such a large fundraising endeavor was an opportunity to return the favor. “It’s all about helping out a brother firefighter,” said Stubbs. “Five years ago, the (Duncanville Firefighters) Association stepped up and helped me when my s

Can you imagine a world without breast cancer? It's hard, given how pervasive the disease is. But go ahead, let yourself envision that world. Because it's not a fantasy. It's a reality within our grasp. Each step taken on the Breast Cancer 3- Day brings us closer to ending the disease forever. Everyone has been touched in some way by breast cancer. And recoiled from the touch. No family should lose a mother prematurely. Or a dear friend, sister, wife, daughter, co-worker. No one of us, just diagnosed, should have to look at the mirror in the morning and say: Will I survive? Everyone deserves a lifetime: We feel it deep in our bones. Allow yourself to imagine a world without breast cancer.

SERMON SERIES Worship Time 8:30 & 11:00 AM More and more people these days are undergoing a detox. Toxins from our food and our suburban “habitat” build up in our bodies over time and can make us feel sluggish and discontent. A detox can help us expel these toxins and restore our physical health and vitality. All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health.
