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.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
