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!

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
