Generosity of the Deltas, Elder-led Prayer, Pray for Haiti Mission Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/13)

We had Deltas in the house! The Western Wake Alumnae Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority joined us at church today.  The sorority is celebrating 100 years.  Today, they donated money to our mission trip to Haiti.  Many thanks to the Deltas for their generosity.

Today's reading from the Chronological Reading Plan is Job 35-37

Last week, we started a new Bible Study series on Wednesday looking at "Disciples Making Disciples". There's a great lack of true disciple making in the church today.  Everyone is invited to join us and bring a friend.

For the past year or so, leadership has been gathering once a month to pray for this church, our communities, and the nations. Now, we're going to open this prayer meeting to the rest of the church.  Every 4th Tuesday of the month, we will have an elder-led prayer meeting from 6 to 7pm.  Our first one will be 1/22.  Join us for 1 hour of prayer.

Our Haiti Missionary Team is going to Haiti this week. We have a team of 6 (3 members and 3 non-members).  Please pray for them that the trip to Haiti would be fruitful and would glorify God.

Our teens are resuming their youth services on the second and fourth Sundays. The teens really enjoyed the youth service! Junior Deacon Derrick Wiggins was the speaker and did an awesome job delivering the message that God gave him.  Please continue supporting our youth ministry and encourage the teens to bring a friend to the youth services.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

My Hope Sunday, M:T Not a Competition, Prayer Gathering (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday ! We had several invited guests, and my message was from 1 Samuel 8:4-9 on "Looking for a Savior".  Israel wanted a king like the other nations who would “save” them. This is the very definition of a functional savior. A functional savior is anything or anyone a person looks to for ultimate hope, security, identity, or fulfillment in place of God. Whatever you look to to “save” you from your problems, fears, or insecurities is your functional savior. But all of our functional saviors cannot save us. Jesus is the Savior we really need!  Our greatest need in this life and the life to come is to have our sins forgiven by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Today, my wife shared her My Hope Testimony .   (RSS Subscribers: click here to watch the video) Missions:Together’s "Not a Competition" is a powerful missions gathering designed to re-ignite your passion for missions on Saturday, November 2, hosted at The Summit Church in Apex.
