Update on Last Week, With Love from Jesus, JA Lewis Scholarship Winner (Pastoral Emphasis from 6/13)

I wanted to provide a quick update on last week's message (Rediscover the Book) where I gave a brief history of the church (regarding Martin Luther & the Protestant Reformation).
  • It was confirmed to me that Catholic Church no longer practices the selling of Indulgences
  • I also don't want us to appear to be anti-Catholic or assume everyone who is Catholic is not saved.
  • There is Catholic Theology I believe is contrary to God's Word. But there is also theology that comes from other Protestant churches that are contrary to God's Word.
  • We would do well to study & follow the Scriptures and not demonize a particular church or denomination.
Mt. Zion ministered at the Phoenix Assisted Care this afternoon. The Men's & Women's Ministries accompanied Elder Wilbur Lucas as speaker and the J.A. Lewis & Youth Combined Choirs rendered the music.

Mt. Zion once again will partner with "With Love From Jesus Ministry" on Saturday, June 19 from 9:00am to 12:30pm in Raleigh. Please volunteer at the Welcome Center.

I am pleased to announce that this year's JA Lewis Memorial Scholarship is awarded to Brinson Jones.

So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! I shared the following email that we got via our website to show that we are spreading the Gospel worldwide. To God be the glory! Greetings Mt. Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church. I was talking to my very dear sister, soror, friend Sis Brandi Hancock and she and I were having a heart to heart. I told her that I was
