Zion Live, Bereavement, Faith in Action Response, Friends & Family Day (Pastoral Emphasis from 9/13)

A BIG shout-out to our IT/Media Ministry as we launched our new online experience called Zion Live. Our online experience now offers more interactive features than before and we will be adding more in the future. Zion Live will be a great way for people to experience God with Mt. Zion no matter where they are.

We have several members in our church that are currently experiencing bereavement. Let's keep them in our prayers...
  • Sis. Michelle Skeen - passing of her mother
  • Sis. Josephine Singleton - passing of her father
  • Sis. LaDonna Bethea - passing of her sister
  • Minister Candace Walden - passing of her husband

Here's some info on Wednesday Bible Study for the next few weeks:
  • This week, we will watch & discuss an awesome message from Pastor Francis Chan
  • Next week, no Bible Study due to Fall Renewal service
  • On 9/30, we start a new series called "Does God Know Your Next Move"

The Couples Ministry is doing advance planning for Sweethearts' Ball 2010 and would like for all couples to pre-register. The cutoff is Oct. 4th to sign up. Please invite other couples and sign them up also. More details to come.

I'm so excited about our Faith in Action campaign. You can watch the promo here. After the service, the Mt Zion family responded well to the message of putting our faith into action and all the sign-up sheets for our initial three areas of service (Bond Park Compost Education Unit, Road Side Litter Sweep, Raleigh Helping Hand Mission) were filled immediately!

We have new service opportunities available...
  • Cary Health & Rehab
  • Claire Bridge Assisted Living
  • Chatham Creek Nursing Home
  • Phoenix Assisted Living
  • Dillard Drive Middle School
Friends & Family Day is 9/27. Dress will be causal, worship will be intentional, and food will be served! Join us and bring a friend!

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...
