5th Pastoral Anniversary

I would like to thank everyone for their prayers, well wishes, encouragement, and gifts during the celebration of my fifth pastoral anniversary. We had a great time at the banquet on that Friday and on the following Sunday. It was great to have my mom and the pastor and first lady from my home church to come down and participate in the activities. The family and I enjoyed riding in the limo. I'm the only person I know that rides in a limo with three car seats! But that's how I roll!!! Again, I enjoyed my anniversary and appreciate what everyone has done to support my wife and I in ministry. We look forward to many, many more years of working together to accomplish the purposes God has for us.

Our first Theatrical Dance Production, "Distractions" will be on 4/28 at 5pm at Green Hope High School. Don't forget to invite someone to come to this event. Easter Sunday's love offering is going to support Harvest Crusade. Since Mt Zion is participating in this great event, we also want to support it financially. As Easter is a reminder of God giving His very best for us, let us do our very best for our Lord in our sacrificial giving. Continue to be faithful in your giving towards your vow to God.

Visitation and Homegoing services for Sis. DeLoatch will be held at Mt Zion this week. The Visitation will be Tuesday (4/3) at 7pm and the Homegoing service will be on Wednesday (4/4) at 10am. We had a great Youth Revival last week. On Wednesday, we had about 5 young men come to devote themselves to a closer walk with God. On Thursday, Sis. Payton’s young boy, Braxton gave his life to Christ. Praise the Lord! And on Friday, our youth wrote out their struggles and laid it at the altar. Pastor Wright challenged them to pray and read Proverbs for 21 days. Our first Evangelical Outreach Theatrical Dance Production, "Distractions" is almost here! We want to do our best to make this production one of excellence. Two things are needed: 1) Volunteers to work backstage and 2) Invite people. The invitation to accept Christ will be given so please invite those who may not know the Lord to this great event. Online flyers that you can email to people can be found here . Next Su
