Christmas Program Invite, Christmas Caroling, What Kind of Giver are You? (Pastoral Emphasis from 12/5)

Pastor Larry Snead and Christ First Christian Fellowship Center invites us to their 3rd annual Christmas program, "Most Wonderful Time of the Year" on next Sunday, December 12th, at 6:00pm.

Unfortunately due to a lack of participation, we are canceling our Christmas Play (scheduled for this Saturday). But we are still going out that evening to sing Christmas carols at the area nursing homes. So meet us at the church at 6:30pm on Saturday, 12/11 and help us spread the love and majesty of Christ to our neighbors at the nursing homes.

As Christmas is approaching, let's not try to live above our means but be good stewards over our money in a way that honors God. By not going into debt buying stuff we can't afford or don't really need, we can be more generous to give to the ministry and to those in need.

So what kind of giver are you? We have a humorous video (see below) in the announcement but it contains a lot of truth. So carefully give some thoughts to whether your giving truly honors and glorifies God.

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.
