The Christian Healing Network dba Mission Medical Center was established in 2004 by a group of church leaders who noticed a lack in available health services for people that were uninsured. MMC operates with only 2 full time employees, 3 part time employees, and over 65 active and extremely loyal volunteers, 24 of which are healthcare providers who regularly see patients. Last year, we saw nearly 600 patients and provided $192,000 in free medical visits.
Our primary care clinic is our busiest clinic and is open Monday through Thursday from 9am to 4pm. We offer hour-long appointment times so our providers can spend time getting to know the patient, adequately treat their concerns, and offer spiritual care services as needed and/or requested. Through our primary care program, we offer free laboratory testing to our patients through our partnerships with Quest Diagnostics and LabCorp. We work with Colorado Springs Imaging to obtain x-rays and CTs when we need them for our patients. We have a small in-house lab and can run a few tests right in the office, including hemoglobin a1c, glucose, and UA testing.
MMC also has a fully operational dental clinic with 7 volunteer dentists, 4 dental assistants and a dental hygienist. We have dental x-ray machines, including a panoramic x-ray machine. We perform deep cleanings, fillings, extractions, and extensive oral hygiene education. Lastly, MMC has a Spiritual Care Center staffed with volunteer chaplains. We believe faith and medicine working together improves the lives of patients.

Each communion Sunday thereafter we will have a basket for those who feel called to give above and beyond their pledge. This "second-mile" giving will help fund the pastor's discretionary fund, which helps meet community needs as they arise, such as gas, lodging, clothing, etc. Feel free to bring your spare cash and change to help make a change in the lives of those in need.

Threshold Song
In the Midst of New Dimensions
v. 1-3 TFWS #2238
 
1. In the midst of
new dimensions, 
in the face of 
changing ways, 
 
who will lead the 
pilgrim peoples 
wandering in their 
separate ways?
 
Refrain
God of rainbow, 
fiery pillar, 
leading where the 
eagles soar, 
 
we your people, 
ours the journey 
now and ever, 
now and ever, 
now and evermore.
 
Refrain
 
2. Through the flood
of starving people,
warring factions
and despair,
 
who will lift
the olive branches?
Who will light the
flame of care?
 
Refrain
 
3. As we stand 
a world divided
by our own 
self-seeking schemes, 
 
grant that we, 
your global village, 
might envision 
wider dreams. 
 
Refrain

in glory land that 
outshines the sun. 
Look away 
beyond the blue.

beyond the blue.

as my savior, 
You take him too.

You take him too.

as my savior, 
You take him too. 
Look away,
beyond the blue.

Prayer, Silent Prayer, The Lord’s Prayer
Jackie Fletcher

Our Father
Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name;
 
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
On earth
As it is in heaven.
 
Give us this day
Our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those
Who trespass against us.
 
Lead us not
Into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
 
For Thine is the Kingdom
And the Power
And the Glory
Forever.
Amen.
 
Scripture Reading
Philippians 2:1-17
Jackie Fletcher

If, then, there is any comfort in Christ, any consolation from love, any partnership in the Spirit, any tender affection and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or empty conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to your own interests but to the interests of others. Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus,
who, though he existed in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be grasped,
but emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
assuming human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a human,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross.
Therefore God exalted him even more highly
and gave him the name
that is above every other name,
so that at the name given to Jesus
every knee should bend,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed me, not only in my presence but much more now in my absence, work on your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who is at work in you, enabling you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
Do all things without murmuring and arguing, so that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine like stars in the world, holding forth the word of life so that I can boast on the day of Christ that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

But even if I am being poured out as a libation over the sacrifice and the service of your faith, I rejoice, and I rejoice together with all of you;

Prayer for Illumination
Leader: May the words of my mouth,
People: and the meditations of all of our hearts
All: be acceptable in your sight, O Lord our rock and our redeemer.

Doxology
Pass It On
V. 1 UMH #572
 
It only takes a spark
to get a fire going,
and soon all those around
can warm up
in its glowing.
 
That’s how it is
with God’s love
once you’ve experienced it;
 
you spread His love
to everyone;
you want to pass it on.

Benediction
Rev. David Petty

Closing Hymn
Pass It On
UMH #572

1. It only takes a spark to get a fire going, and soon all those around can warm up in its glowing. That’s how it is with God’s love once you’ve experienced it; you spread His love to everyone; you want to pass it on.

2. What a wondrous time is spring, when all the trees are budding, the birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming. That’s how it is with God’s love once you’ve experienced it; you want to sing, it’s fresh like spring, you want to pass it on.

3. I wish for you, my friend, the happiness that I’ve found; you can depend on Him, it matters not where you’re bound. I’ll shout it from the mountaintop; I want my world to know; the Lord of love has come to me, I want to pass it on.
