It is time, again, for the annual Missions Conference at City on the Hill. And this year, I am happy to say, I will be at the conference! I hope you will join us on Sunday, August 28th for one or all of the meetings. I plan to speak at the 6pm service, so come and see what is happening in Bulgaria, and introduce yourself to me so we can get acquainted. See you there!

Introducing The House of Hope Logo

Cecily Willard — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 14:19:10 +0100

Hello!

This month I want to introduce our logo! We spent many hours in the month of January working with a graphic artist who created this great logo for us, and then she said that she wanted to donate her services. So, we are doubly blessed!

We continue work on our website which will soon, I hope, be ready to introduced to you. We also cRead More...

Happy New Year!

We made a lot of progress in 2010 on our House of Hope project. Praise the Lord! We created a Partnership for the project, have gained a lot of interest in the project from people far and near, and are making progress in our fund raising efforts.

There are different ways to be involved in this project, so if you are interested send us an email at hopefulhouse@gmail.com.

Building the House of Hope: The Matching Gift Challenge

Cecily Willard — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 12:12:59 +0100

Hello!

We are making headway on our House of Hope Project. If you are new to this blog, we are working on a project to build a group home, The House of Hope, for orphans with special needs in Bulgaria.

We are now in the early stages of fundraising for this project. The first step is to raise $30,000 to buy property for The House of Hope.

At present, we are engaged in The $1,000 Matching Gift Challenge. So, any money that is donated for The House of Hope between now and JaRead More...

Building the House of Hope

Cecily Willard — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 15:13:06 +0100

Well, lots has happened since I wrote my first blog entry in March!

I am now working in partnership with the pastor of my local church here and with a woman who is the founder and director of a non-profit organization for children with disabilities. We have formed a partnership for the purpose of building a group home for the children at the orphanage whom I helped to care for in 2008 and 2009.

We have just begun fundraising for our House of Hope Project, and this is a very exciRead More...

Hope for Orphans with Special Needs in Bulgaria

Cecily Willard — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 09:12:19 +0100

Greetings from Bulgaria! Welcome to my very first blog! In case you don't know me, let me give a brief introduction. My name is Cecily Willard and I have been a missionary sent out by City on the Hill since 2001. I am presently working in Bulgaria. My first trip to Bulgaria was in the summer of 2007. For two months I volunteered at an orphanage, bringing love to six orphans. I returned to Bulgaria in January of 2008 and began, in March of that year, to work with 10 orphans (at the same orphanRead More...

Gift of Prophecy-Important!

steve shank — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 19:59:13 +0100

In the year 2009 we've had a regular flow of prophecies at City on the Hill. I've been in the ministry for thirty years and I can't remember a time where we've had a regular stream of prophetic utterances week after week for five months and running!

When God gives me a prophecy or an interpretation of a Spirit-inspired tongue I usually only get the first four or five words. I've learned over the years to speak those first few words out in faith and then the rest of the "word from the Lord" flRead More...

Healing explosion at CU with Sandra Kennedy - report

COTH — Mon, 18 May 2009 16:53:36 +0100

It was unusually quiet at CU-Boulder last Friday. Graduation had left the campus void of student energy, but things were building up in the Glenn Miller Ballroom as the Healing Explosion with Sandra Kennedy got underway. It was the fourth and final meeting of the annual City on the Hill healing conference.

A trimmed down band of guitar, djembe and vocalist set the worship tone. Dr. Kennedy was accompanied from Augusta, Ga. by her associate pastor Velda Schirhart, and Aaron, a physical tRead More...

Healing Explosion with Sandra Kennedy this weekend!

Steve Chavis — Tue, 12 May 2009 17:19:13 +0100

Healing. That’s it. A single word to capture what so many of us long for, either for ourselves or for loved ones.

Sickness. There’s another word. Many people ask how can a loving God allow so much sickness (and other evil) in the world. And anyone who is suffering with a malady can tell you how all-consuming sickness can be. Sickness is just a pain. (Sorry, bad pun. Would you allow me one more?) Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? (OK. That’s all. No moreRead More...

As a writer and news hound, I’m pretty excited about Twitter.Maybe it’s my instinct for editing that gets all happy about the 140-character limit on the micro-blog platform.Maybe it’s getting quick news items and pithy comments from interesting people that pumps me up.

One recent Sunday, I wondered what it would be like to post blogs from the worship service at City on the Hill. I read many posts from people at conferences and conventions. Why not church where so many intRead More...
