Helen Wright Center, Church Family Meeting, Back 2 School Conference (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/27)

Please add Sidney Mills to your prayer list and pray for her salvation. We met her at the Phoenix Nursing home last Sunday.  She thinks Jesus is a good mentor and role model but does not believe in God.  Deacon Bowser is going back in a month to talk more with her.  Pray that God would change her heart and grant her repentance that leads to eternal life.

We have another opportunity to serve our community. The Deaconess will be serving dinner to the women at the Helen Wright Center in Raleigh on Thursday, July 31st.  If you would like to volunteer your time or make a donation, please contact Deaconess Angelique Cherry.

Don't forget our next Church Family Meeting on tomorrow at 7:00pm.  All members are asked to attend.


Join us for our Back to School Conference on Saturday, 8/2. Registration is at 9:30am and the conference is from 10am to noon.  It will include break-out sessions to encourage families to become well balance academically, physically, socially, and spiritually.  Afterwards, we'll go outside for games, music, fellowship, and food at the Tailgate Party that will last until 2:00pm. Attendees are asked to bring enough tailgate food that can be shared with several people. Come out and rock your favorite school or university apparel!


We had Ecuador testimonies from our returning missionaries Jae Smith, Decora Martin, Brittany Hardy and Amari Harris. It was great to hear not only what God did through the missionaries but also what God did IN them!

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...
