Mt Zion Youth in the News, Sharing Sermons, More Convoy of Hope details (Pastoral Emphasis from 3/29)

We're so proud of our own Braxton Payton for "standing out" with good manners and good dance moves. Check him out on this news report.

The Youth Contemporary Service held this afternoon at 4:00pm was a great success! All of the youth from both Mt. Zion and PCC did an awesome job singing, dancing, and reciting poetry. Elder Mike Smith of Phillipian Community Church of Raleigh gave a great word from Romans 12.

Pastor Larry Snead and Christ First Christian Fellowship Center's Music Ministry invite the Mt. Zion family to their Easter Musical, "Morning Glory," on next Sunday, April 5th at 6:00pm.

I got the following email that shows the power of sharing free audio CDs of sermons. So don't forget to order free CDs of sermons and share them with family and friends.
I had the privilege to be able to hear the sermon [Practical Atheist] on CD sent to my co-worker by her family. I must say if you love Jesus and want to serve Him in every way this sermon is for you and needs to be listened to often and then to share this message to others. I thank the pastor for being obedient to the call of the Spirit to speak the truth in love. From Hampton, Virginia

More Convoy of Hope details:

"Connection Volunteers" will basically help to 'connect' people to God (through prayer at the Convoy) and to churches (through follow-up with new believers).

This includes:
  • Prayer Warrior: doing 1-on-1 or 2-on-family unit prayer with people in the Prayer Tent
  • Prayer Warrior: doing intercessory / behind the scenes supporting prayer
  • Discipling / Follow-up with new believers
All Connection Volunteers are required to receive specific training before the event, so we can all serve our hurting neighbors properly and with love and grace.

TRAINING for CONNECTION VOLUNTEERS

All Connection Volunteers will be asked to attend one 90 minutes training session the week before the event - starting with one session on Sunday afternoon, April 19 and two sessions per day on Monday through Wednesday, April 20 - 22 -- hopefully at different churches through-out Raleigh. Specific times and locations to be announced soon.

GUEST SERVICES

We still need those Mt. Zion volunteers that signed up for Guest Services to please help with passing out flyers. There are many more flyers and a large area to canvas in getting the flyers out.

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...
