Family Dinner

November 26, 2023 • 10:00am |Open Road Fellowship Church

This four-week series, Family Dinner, examines meal and food-related passages in Scripture and culminates in a deeper understanding of Jesus’s invitation to “take and eat” the bread and wine as part of our communion practices.

Christians are to remember Jesus’s sacrifice during communion. We are to dwell on what he did for us, to appreciate and acknowledge his presence. Remembering Christ’s presence with us and the sacrifice he made for us is part of the Communion practice.

Thanksgiving in the Park - Rodessa

November is coming, and we are gearing up for our November Serve Day.

We'll need some folks to help prep a little Saturday evening, some to volunteer to bring some desserts, and some to help set up and serve once we get to the park. It's going to be a day to give thanks to the Lord and and give thanks with the Rodessa community.

Make sure and sign up.

Thanksgiving Boxes

November 19, 2023 • 10:00am |Open Road Fellowship Church

Close your eyes for just a second (well, wait until I give you what to visualize). Ok, in just a moment, I want you to close your eyes and imagine it's Thanksgiving, and you have nothing on the table. Ok, close your eyes now and imagine.

How did you feel about that? I bet it made you feel sad, scared, unsure, and maybe even worthless. Believe it or not, there are many people in our local area of Haughton, Bossier City, Minden, Doyline, and Shreveport that will not have anything on their table this Thanksgiving. 

That's where you come in. I am asking the members and regular attendees of Open Road Fellowship Church to bring with them to church the list (click here) of food items on November 19, 2023. Bring your food in a plastic or paper sack, and deliver it to the designated area in the foyer. 

During the services, Open Road Kids will decorate the boxes with colorful messages of hope and love. After the services, those wanting to deliver a box to a family will grab a box and an address to head out. Super simple, and it is a true blessing.

If you are a regular attender of Open Road Fellowship, sign up here to bring a box, deliver a box, or if you or someone you know needs a box. If you do not attend Open Road Fellowship, but you've come across this site and need a box, click here to fill out the form. We're not sure if we'll be able to get to you, but we will try our best.

Remember, you may be at that empty table one day. I hope that somebody would have thought of you enough to bring a box in the name of Jesus.

Family Dinner

November 19, 2023 • 10:00am |Open Road Fellowship Church

This four-week series, Family Dinner, examines meal and food-related passages in Scripture and culminates in a deeper understanding of Jesus’s invitation to “take and eat” the bread and wine as part of our communion practices.

The practice of fasting spans the entire Bible. Moses fasted (Exodus 34:28), Daniel fasted (Daniel 10:3), John the Baptist followed a specific meal plan in his fast (Matthew 3:4), Jesus fasted in the wilderness (Luke 4:1–4), and Acts 13:1–3 explains the fasts practiced by the early church. Fasting not only causes us to go without something, but it also forces us to remember the reason we are going without, keeping that idea in the forefront of our mind each time we intentionally choose to go without.

2nd Sunday Ride

November 12, 2023 • 12:30pm |Hanger 316

Let's Ride!!...

November 12th is 2nd Sunday and if you are new to Open Road Fellowship, that's when we jump on our bikes and head out as a group right after church for a nice ride.  It's an opportunity for us to grab some good food and enjoy some fellowship as we take some time to get to know one another.  The direction we head is always an adventure but geared to provide a relaxing time out on the bikes. Invite your friends; maybe a nice ride might be what motivates them to come to church. Hey, and if you don't ride, don't let that stop you from enjoying the day...just hop in your car and follow along.

North, south, east, or west... no matter where we head, you are sure to enjoy the ride.  So, come join us for our next 2nd Sunday ride!

God delights in our presence at his banquet table. We can accept his offer and delight in his presence too. We can take this a step further and offer the same hospitality to others, modeling the love and welcome of Christ to the world around us.

Family Dinner

November 5, 2023 • 10:00am |Open Road Fellowship Church

This four-week series, Family Dinner, examines meal and food-related passages in Scripture and culminates in a deeper understanding of Jesus’s invitation to “take and eat” the bread and wine as part of our communion practices.

Using the metaphor of daily food and nourishment, Jesus modeled prayer for the disciples and included a statement of thanksgiving for daily bread. Not only was Jesus thankful for the food sitting before Him, but He also thanked God for sustaining Him in every way. We pray that God would give us this day; which teaches us to renew the desire of our souls toward God,
as the wants of our bodies are renewed;
