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?"

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...
