Bereavements, Ecuador Mission Trip, Spruce Up Stats (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/8)

We are currently fasting and praying as a church family for Lent. We are praying for personal and corporate revival in our church, and sacrificial giving.

During your prayer time, please remember a few of our members who are currently facing difficulties and bereavement...

  • Sis. Jackie Bradley broke her left ankle yesterday. She is recovering from surgery. 
  • Deaconess Peggy Credle's aunt has passed. She is traveling today to New York. 
  • Sis. Linda Spears lost a cousin and her brother has been diagnosed with lung cancer. 
  • Deacon Bowser lost his maternal grandmother. 
  • Hunter Family – Sis. Juanita Hunter's son (and brother to Sis. Sandra King & Thelma Hunter), Wilbert, passed last week. The homegoing service will be on Tuesday at Lincolnville AME Church. The viewing will be at 10am and the service will be at 11am. 



If anyone is interested in going on the Ecuador mission trip, then you must attend the upcoming commitment meeting on tomorrow at 6:30pm at Cary COG. If you have any questions, please contact our coordinator, Minister Matt Darby.

Thanks to all who came out for our Spring Spruce Up on yesterday.  We had a great turnout of 43 members: 32 adults (20 from leadership) and 11 children. Here's breakdown per zone...

  • Zone 1: 14 
  • Zone 2: 2 
  • Zone 3: 7 
  • Zone 4: 20 (shout-outs to my family and Smith families 'cause we roll deep) 
Total hours worked (collectively) is 106.16. the average per member is 2.46 hours. So at $25 per hour, we saved the church $2,654.00. Not bad for a Saturday morning.

Dress Code, Spreading the Gospel to Japan, Skits & Pizza (Pastoral Emphasis from 7/26)

Thanks to all who came out to the Church Family Meeting. Our focus is reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! I shared the following email that we got via our website to show that we are spreading the Gospel worldwide. To God be the glory! Greetings Mt. Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church. I was talking to my very dear sister, soror, friend Sis Brandi Hancock and she and I were having a heart to heart. I told her that I was
