Please, revisit our site for updates on when we will be offering this time of fellowship with our church and community.

	Learn how 40 Days can transform your congregation through God's purposes for our lives and communities! Since 2002, over 20,000 churches of all denominations and sizes have experienced the transforming power of individuals living out God's purposes. In 2004, the seeds planted in Purpose are being taken to a new level of growth as a special group of 800 pilot partners joined Saddleback for 40 Days of Community.
Rick Warren, Founder & Organizer 40 Days of Purpose
	Yes!, You may be wondering, "Why 40 days? What's so special about that time frame?" The Bible is clear that God considers 40 days to be a spiritually significant time period. Whenever God wanted to prepare someone for His purposes, He took 40 days: • Noah's life was transformed by 40 days of rain. • Moses was transformed by 40 days on Mount Sinai. • The spies were transformed by 40 days in the Promised Land. •David was transformed by Goliath's 40 day challenge. • Elijah was transformed when God gave him 40 days of strength from a single meal. • The entire city of Nineveh was transformed when God gave them 40 days to change. • Jesus was empowered by 40 days in the wilderness. • The disciples were transformed by 40 days with Jesus after His resurrection. It's not just the duration, however, but the direction of 40 Days of Purpose that changes lives. This emphasis is designed to help your members answer the most basic question of life: What on earth am I here for? During 40 Days of Purpose, your members will rediscover God's five eternal purposes for our lives: WORSHIP We were planned for God's pleasure! FELLOWSHIP We were formed for God's family! DISCIPLESHIP We were created to become like Christ! MINISTRY We were shaped for serving God! EVANGELISM We were made for a mission!
	Please join us as we engage in 40 Days of Purpose. We are praying that this time of sharing at our church and in our community will give our members and friends a deeper commitment of our prayer life together, fellowship, worship experience, and closer walk with God, etc. We are exploring new ways to do our part in Kingdom building that Men, Women, Boys and Girls would come to know Christ as their personal Savior, and get involved in his Church to glorify God as we all grow together reaching our fullest potential.
