2009 Theme, Community Items, Perspectives Spring Classes (Pastoral Emphasis from 1/4)

Happy New Year. Our theme for 2009 is "Growing to Spiritual Maturity". We want to focus on our spiritual growth and move from 'milk' to 'meat'.

The Men's Ministry will be starting a Men's Bible Study every Second Sunday beginning January 14th. All men are invited to attend and participate.

Don't forget about the other areas for spiritual growth: Sunday School, Tuesday Prayer (6pm & 7pm), Wednesday evening Bible Study (7pm), and Thursday morning Bible Study (9am).

All girls ages 9 to 17 and their parent or guardian are asked to be present for the Girls Enrichment Ministry kickoff on Jan.24th at 9 am.

A couple of Community items:
  • The Town is considering annexing 10 areas in Cary which may affect some of our members. Public informational meetings are being held between 5-8 p.m. on January 13 at the Senior Center and January 14 at the Herb Young Community Center. Both sessions will provide the same information. Citizens will be given an opportunity to ask questions regarding the annexation and extension of municipal services to the proposed areas (there may be costs to the citizens with the annexation). The areas under consideration are Brookridge, Carpenter Upchurch Road, Country Lane/Mickey Lane, Evans Road, Hemlock Ridge, Jenks Carpenter Road, Pleasant Grove Church Road, Reedy Creek Road and Woodland Acres.
  • Raise the Praise Worship Experience with Dr Norman Hutchins on 1/9 at 7pm at NC State. He will perform "It's Your Season", "God's Got A Blessing". It's free but you need tickets to attend.
For more details on these community items, see our Community page.

Perspectives on the World Christian Movement is a ministry course providing training for Christians to be equipped for local cross-cultural ministry, missions, and for discipling the nations. Spring classes are starting on Wed. evenings on Jan. 14th in Apex and Durham. It's a 15 week long course. If anyone is serious interested, please contact Elder Bullock for more details.

2008 Contribution Statements are available at the Welcome Center for pickup during the month of January.

Dress Code, Spreading the Gospel to Japan, Skits & Pizza (Pastoral Emphasis from 7/26)

Thanks to all who came out to the Church Family Meeting. Our focus is reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! I shared the following email that we got via our website to show that we are spreading the Gospel worldwide. To God be the glory! Greetings Mt. Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church.
