Praise Report, Drugs Uncovered, Youth Car Wash (Pastoral Emphasis from 5/10)

We recognized all mothers on Sunday and wished them a Happy Mother's Day!

Please continue to pray for Jabari Dickerson who was in the recent serious car accident that claimed the life of another teen. Thankfully, Jabari has been getting better and better. And I also heard that four teens got saved in the hospital waiting room! Praise God! God can use a tragedy for His divine purpose!

The Single Sip Café is starting a new 7-Session Series called "Being Single and the Spiritual Quest". Singles of all ages (never married, divorced, widowed) are invited to attend on Sunday, May 24th, at 8:30am in Adult Classroom 3.

On Monday, the Poe Health Center presented "Drugs Uncovered: What Parents Need to Know!" at Mt Zion. It was a very informative presentation. It's amazing (and truly sad) what kids will do to hide and take drugs. Hopefully, this will help parents be more aware about potential drug abuse.

The Youth car wash takes place on Saturday, May 16th from 7am-12pm in the church parking lot.

Next Sunday, May 17th, all youth ages 13-17 should report to classroom 4 at 9:45 am for the Youth Enrichment Service.

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 ...

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 .   (RSS Subscribers: click here to watch the video) Missions:Together’s "Not a Competition" is a powerful missions gathering designed to re-ignite your passion for missions on Saturday, November 2, hosted at The Summit Church in Apex.
