"Church Busyness", Sign-up for Backpack Outreach, The Divine Institution (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/12)

On yesterday, we celebrated another homegoing with our Sister Barbara Stephens. Continue to pray for Sister Linda Spears and the Stephens family. Family, we have experienced another loss which is another reminder that there is no time for us to simply be engaged in "church busyness" and "religious activities". We must be actively engaged in spreading the Gospel (Project: Witness To Thy Neighbor), being missional, and making disciples.

We are partnering with Mosaic Church of Cary for a School Backpack Outreach. Volunteers are needed to assist with assembling and distributing "Back to School" supplies on Saturday, August 18th, at 9:00am at Mosaic Church in Cary. Sign up online. Supply donations can be dropped off here anytime between now and August 18th. Copies of the supply list are available at the Welcome Center. If you have questions contact Sis. Linda Reynolds or the church office.

God's mission will also take us to other countries. In July, a group of missionaries went to Ecuador.  We were very proud to have our first teen go on a mission trip.  Young Bro. Derrick Wiggin shared his testimony from the trip.

You may have noticed some football practices happening on our open field. We're going to be a backup location for the Cary Chargers practices. This is an opportunity for community exposure and some revenue.

Many of you may have heard of the Chic-Fil-A "controversy" (where Dan Cathy expressed his belief of marriage being between a man & a woman).  Many will attack Chic-Fil-A and Christians for their view of traditional marriage based on Scripture.  We will see in Ephesians that marriage is a reflection of Christ and the church.  An attack against marriage is an attack against Christ and the church.  Marriage is a divine institution created and defined by God.
