Pastoral Emphasis from 4/20

I remind the youth ministry that the deadline to submit their video for “The MZ YouthTube Challenge” is April 25th. The challenge is to create a 3 to 5 minute video on an evangelistic topic. The best videos will be posted on YouTube, GodTube, Facebook, MySpace, and the church’s website for internet evangelism day on April 27th.

Everyone is invited to join us for our next Bible Study series, "Spiritual Warfare - Biblical Approach," that begins on Wednesday. We are truly in a spiritual battle. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds (2 Corinthians 10:4).

High School seniors…now is the time to apply for the 2008 JA Lewis Scholarship. See the church announcements for more details.

Everyone is invited to go out with us as we go to speak and fellowship with Pastor Maurice Wright and New Destiny Christian Fellowship Church for their 4th Anniversary on Thursday at 7:30pm.

We had 100 CDs of my message “Do you love Jesus more than these things?” for free. I wanted to give them all away so people could listen repeatedly to the message and mediate on it (faith comes by hearing). Also, you can pick up some CDs to give away.

It was announced at Bible Study about a single mother with three girls who are in desperate need of some essentials items. You may have some of these items already that you can donate to the family. Let's be a blessing to this family. Sis. Winters Hankins has volunteered to help collect these items and make sure they get to the family. Contact Sis. Hankins to find out what items are needed. If you would like to donate money, you may give her cash or gift cards.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...
