Flower Shuttle, Haiti Donations, Adopting West Cary Middle (Pastoral Emphasis from 2/7)

The Couples Ministry is partnering with The Flower Shuttle. This ministry reuses & repackages flowers left over from events to deliver to hospice, nursing homes, hospitals, meals on wheels, etc. We can help by donating mugs, small vases, and flower pots. The Couples Ministry will set up a table in the front near the welcome center to collect these items.

There's another opportunity to help Haiti. The Cary Church of God is serving as an authorized Operation Compassion Haiti Relief Donation Center for Eastern North Carolina. They will be receiving materials until 2/28. Starting this week we'll be collecting donations to drop off at Cary Church of God. Click here for the list of needed supplies. Fliers are also available at the Welcome Center.

Mt. Zion along with other area churches is adopting West Cary Middle School (WCM). We are looking for volunteers to help tutor, mentor, proctor exams, etc. If you are interested, please get a volunteer packet at the Welcome Center. Once you are ready to volunteer, please go to WCM's library and complete their background check and give Minister Amekuedi your completed paperwork. I ask that people complete this by 2/22.

A couple of weeks ago, we announced that Mt. Zion was going non-denominational. Our vision is to reach all people, especially those who are un-churched who may never come visit a Baptist church. Our love for people should trump any loyalty to a denomination. Our vision, culture, and direction is not changing. But I understand that people may have concerns or questions about this move, so please feel free to send me those questions. In addition to that, the elders and I will be putting together a document to address the common concerns.
