99 1/2 Won't Do, Pastor's Tea (Pastoral Emphasis from 3/8)

Boy, I'm glad that getting into heaven is not based on your bowling score! The men had a great time bowling on last Friday. My goal is to always break a 100 but on the first game, I missed it by 1 pin! And my good friend, Bro. Barry Singleton started singing "99 and a half won't do"!! You could truly feel the love at the bowling alley.

On Sunday evening, we had our first Pastor's Tea with our newest members. The tea was a great time for me and the elders to interact with these new members. I got a chance to share God's vision for Mt. Zion but most importantly I got a chance to hear from these members what drew them to Mt. Zion. A few things that I heard were: loving, welcoming atmosphere; family-oriented; and an active children's ministry.

Philippian Community Church (Pastor Eric Ellis) is having their first Dance Extravaganza on March 13th at 7:30pm. Our Fine Arts Ministry will be participating. Be sure to go out and show your support.

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 called us to continues. Without the burden o

My Hope Sunday, M:T Not a Competition, Prayer Gathering (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday ! We had several invited guests, and my message was from 1 Samuel 8:4-9 on "Looking for a Savior". Israel wanted a king like the other nations who would “save” them. This is the very definition of a functional savior. A functional savior is anything or anyone a person looks to for ultimate hope, security, identity, or fulfillment in place of God. Whatever you look to to “save” you from your problems, fears, or insecurities is your functional savior. But all of our functional saviors cannot save us. Jesus is the Savior we really need! Our greatest need in this life and the life to come is to have our sins forgiven by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Today, my wife shared her My Hope Testimony .
