Pastoral Emphasis from 4/15

For those who have not heard...the Wheelers are going to be relocating to GA. Looks like their last Sunday will be 4/22. Please take some time to wish them well before they leave. I know that God will continue to bless them.

"Distractions" is almost here (4/28 at 5pm at Green Hope High School). Invite someone to come to this event.

To our graduating seniors, take note of a couple of scholarships: Coca-Cola Two Year College Scholarship Award and Mt Zion’s own scholarship award. Other scholarship and internship info available on our MyChurch classified section.

The next Bible Study series, “Preparing for Christ’s Return,” will begin on Wed., Apr. 18th at 7:00pm. Everyone is invited to join us for this series.

Harvest Crusade: Next prayer meeting is 4/19 at 7pm at Bay Leaf Baptist Church in Raleigh. I personally encourage all who can to also participate in the Impact classes. Regardless of whether you volunteer to be on the follow-up team for the Harvest events, it will be good training to help you share your faith.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
