And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.”
- Mark 16:15 (NKJV)
Part of the Great Commission is, as illustrated in the above Scripture, is to spread the Gospel to the whole world. While there are many global missions and ministries, there will never be enough until every single soul is saved in the Blood of Christ Jesus! Far too often, it seems like many smaller churches feel that they do not have the ability or resources to make a difference at all. This is quite a wrong attitude to have. No matter who you are as a person or the size of any congregation, there is always something that can be done in the Lord’s holy name.
At Henry Fork Church of the Brethren, we are adding yet another tool to help with the Great Commission – podcasts on iTunes.
As you may or may not know, anyone can already download or listen to the sermons and Sunday services directly from our website, which is great in and of itself. However, there are still avenues that can be utilized and leveraged to help spread the Word even further. iPods and the corresponding computer application, iTunes, have become widely popular among the entire world population. There are hundreds of millions of users around the world that use iTunes and with over an average of 5,000,000 downloads every single day, anyone can see how utilizing this technology has great potential to help being people to the Lord. What is better is that we of course are not charging one single penny for the downloads of our services on iTunes. Just as Salvation is free to us, so should this be.
So, anyone that uses iTunes can enjoy our services via this application portal and share it with others. Our podcasts will be listed in search results in the next couple of days; however, in the mean time (and at any time) you can get there by clicking this link. **Bear in mind, this does require iTunes to be installed on your computer. If you do not have iTunes already, you can get the free download by clicking here.
And, at all times, you will notice the iTunes link at the very top of every page, which you can also use to get to our iTunes Podcasts.

Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.
- Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)
But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
- Matthew 19:14 (NKJV)
Jesus loves the little children, there is no doubt about that. There are verses all throughout the Scriptures that talk of the absolute importance and vitality of youth in the world. Youth are not only the future of the Church, but are the future of the world. It is an extremely important and urgent task that the Church bring the children up believing and living in the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. At Henry Fork Church of the Brethren, we realize the importance of this part of the Great Commission and are doing our part to fulfill this task.
Our 2009 Vacation Bible School, SonRock Kids Camp, was a huge success thanks to all of our kids and wonderful volunteers. We averaged around 85-90 kids each evening, and had about 40 volunteers! During the week we learned ways Jesus shows us he accepts and loves us through stories of Peter. We then showed an example of our love by collecting useful items to send to our troops overseas. We were able to send 16 packages to soldiers sharing God’s Love! Thank you to EVERYONE who helped make the week run smoothly and efficiently!
