Faith Christian Assembly
Faith Christian Assembly had a representative from the Senior Protection and Financial Abuse Specialist Team of Orange County from the Council on Aging present at the church to help educate members about the steps they can take to protect themselves against fraud and financial abuse. The key to self-protection is to be able to recognize the characteristics of a scam:
•Unsolicited contact from a stranger or seemingly trusted source.
•An offer of something that is valuable.
•A request for personal and/ or financial information.
•Pressure to act quickly or else lose out on an opportunity.
A scripture from the book of Jeremiah is a reminder that the society of biblical times faced similar challenges,“For from the least to the greatest of them, everyone is greedy for unjust gain; and from prophet to priest, everyone deals falsely.
“Were they ashamed when they committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed; they did not know how to blush,” Jeremiah 6:13, 15 (ESV).
These words speak the unchanging human nature. The tools and inventions may have changed but not the heart of man. This is why the Bible still speaks to so many today.
At Faith Christian Assembly, people will hear an inspiring and timely Bible-based message every week.
Faith Christian Assembly’s weekly Sunday service times are at 10:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. The Wednesday morning Bible Study is at 11, and the Grief Share meets weekly on Thursdays at 5:30 p.m. in the Garden Room. The last meeting for the Grief Share is July 21.
