FPU interest, Habitat for Mt. Zion postponed, Children's Day (Pastoral Emphasis from 5/31)

Parents: There was a brief meeting after church on Sunday for all parents who participate in the Children's Ministry. If you missed the meeting, please see someone in the Children's Ministry to get updated. And we do need more parent volunteers. Just a little bit of your time makes a big difference.

On Monday night, we hosted a replay of the Town Hall for Hope featuring Dave Ramsey. I found it to be very enlightening and encouraging. We are also gathering interesting in Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. Please sign up at the Welcome Center if you would be interested in attending this course. Tentative plans are to offer it in the fall.

The "Habitat for Mt. Zion" project that was scheduled for this Saturday has been postponed. We are waiting on an inspection. We hope to do this project next Saturday.

This Sunday is our Children & Youth Day. All High School seniors should wear their caps and gowns. Our young people will be leading and participating in the service. The winner of this year's J Allen Lewis Memorial Scholarship will also be announced.

Pastor Snead & Christ First Christian Fellowship Center will be celebrating their First Anniversary on this Sunday. I have the privilege of being their guest speaker at their 10:45am service. At 4:00pm, the guest speaker will be Pastor Marshall Mays from Virginia, along with musical guest, the Triangle Spirituals of Raleigh. Please come out and praise God for CFCFC making this significant milestone.

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...
