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.

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 ...
