Musical Benefit Program, Thanksgiving Outreach, Follow Me (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/10)

Today's reading from the Chronological Reading Plan: Luke 22; John 13

Tomorrow is Veteran's Day.  We want to recognize and thank all of those who have served our country.

LifeGroup Leaders, there's a meeting for LifeGroup Leaders on Tuesday at 6:30pm. Please come out as I have some important matters to share with you.

Don't forget to register for our upcoming theological seminar on Saturday from 9:00am to 11:00am. The topic will be World Religions. Come out and learn about world religions (such as Islam, Hindu, Mormonism, Roman Catholic, etc.) so you will know the fundamental differences so you'll be better equipped to share the Gospel.

On Saturday afternoon, there will be a Praise & Worship Musical Benefit program at 4pm for the new church, New Life Ministries of Apex.  Please come out and be prepared to give generously.

Mt. Zion will be partnering with Mosaic Church on Saturday, 11/23, to distribute food baskets to local families for Thanksgiving.  We are asking members to contribute items for the food baskets ($10 grocery store gift card, can of corn, can of green beans, box of jiffy cornbread mix, stuffing, gravy, can of cranberries, package of mashed potatoes).  Sign up online to volunteer to assemble and distribute the food baskets.

Our current theme is "Making Disciples Who Make Disciples". But what does it mean to be a disciple? What does it mean to truly follow Jesus?

As a church family, I'm asking that we all read Platt's “Follow Me”. This is the book every believer should read.  We will have a Bible Study series on "Follow Me" at the beginning of next year.

This afternoon at 4pm, Bro. Barry Singleton gave his initial sermon and was licensed as an evangelist.  He preached from Luke 15:11-32, a messaged entitled "Are You Wasting Your Inheritance?"

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.
