Spring Spruce Up, Support a Teen's Mission Trip Fundraiser, Bro. Kaleem (Pastoral Emphasis for 4/14)

Today's reading from the Chronological Reading Plan: 1 Samuel 21-24

On Saturday, 4/20, we are having our second Mt. Zion Spring Spruce Up starting at 8:00am. There will be something for everyone to do. Pancakes will be served. Come help clean our church and enjoy great fellowship.

After all that cleaning, I know you'll be hungry and will want a hot fish plate. Our very own, Latrell Perry is raising funds for his Ecuador mission trip so buy a fish plate and help him raise funds. You can get your food after the Spring Clean Up at our old location at 8500 Chapel Hill Rd in Cary. You can also pre-order but today is the last day to sign up for pre-orders. So check with Doug or Janice Long for more information or to pre-order.

I would like to thank Bro. Kaleem from Pakistan who came to share his testimony with our youth at their youth service.  Here's the report from Deaconess Ersula Jerkins, one of our youth directors...
Good afternoon parents, youth service was awesome after such an awesome time of praise and worship. We hated to leave the sanctuary, however seeing Kaleem speak to the kids was wonderful. He shared some of the things that God has done for him and the kids were so respectful and attentive. Kaleem was able to share pictures and answer questions and he brought it all down to serving Jesus because we are all called to build the kingdom by making disciples. We pray that this message resonates as we prepare to serve in the community in May. We are so thankful to have had the Holy Spirit confirm our church mission through Kaleem's testimony.

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.
