Pastoral Emphasis from 5/13

The Youth Ministry will be holding their quarterly Open House on Mon., May 14th at 7:00pm. We need all parents of our teens to attend.

Update on Harvest Crusade: I want to encourage everyone who can to volunteer as a counselor. Harvest has a goal of 3,000 counselors so that we can provide one-on-one time with people coming forward. So even if you missed the first two classes, you can still be a counselor if you attend the third and final class! Being a counselor at Harvest does not mean that you will need to do any "in-depth" counseling. What is needed is to simply greet and encourage a new believer and give the person some info on their new walk with the Lord. Those who want to be counselors, please contact Deacon Ward (his email address can be found here) immediately to let him know. And if anyone wants to work on the follow-up team, you also need to contact him immediately. Mt Zion will not be providing transportation to the event. The idea is for people to bring others with them to the event. We don't want to just take a van of Mt Zion members to the RBC center. You should invite unbelievers to Harvest and then bring them with you to the event.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers, grandmothers, and those who are mother figures. Thank God for mothers who take care of the children, cook, clean, do the laundry, manage careers, etc. We appreciate all that you do.


In commenting on the nature of women, Martin Luther is reported to have said: "When Eve was brought unto Adam, he became filled with the Holy Spirit, and gave her the most sanctified, the most glorious of appellations. He called her Eve, that is to say, the Mother of All. He did not style her wife, but simply mother, mother of all living creatures. In this consists the glory and the most precious ornament of woman."
