Convoy of Hope activities, Food Distribution in India (Pastoral Emphasis from 3/15)

We had a blast last Sunday at our first Pastor’s Tea with our New Members. I look forward to the next one.

Men, just a reminder that March 29th is the last day to pay your $25 non-refundable deposit for the Men's Retreat. Also, this is last day for single parents to register their sons (up to age 17) for the retreat.

There are several activities happening with Convoy of Hope:
  • There's a prayer rally on the 17th at 7pm at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Raleigh.
  • Guest Services will be passing out flyers for Convoy beginning Saturday, March 21st. They will be meeting each Saturday at 9:45am at Mt Pleasant Worship and Outreach, 1424 Sawyer Road, Raleigh until April 18th and leaving the church promptly at 10:00am to pass out the flyers.
  • There will an Urban Prayer Journey (A Bus Prayer Tour Through Urban Raleigh) on Saturday, April 4 9:00 - Noon. You must RSVP if you want a spot on the bus. This is first-come, first-served. See the community section of our website for details.
Because of your giving, we were able to bless two ministries at the end of last year (one was a local ministry called the Raleigh Area Concerts of Prayer, and the other was Evangelist Sukumar's ministry in India). With the gift we sent, Sukumar was able to distribute much needed food (rice) to a local village.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...

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 ...
