Happy Mother's Day, VBS Registration, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 5/10)

Join us again on Wednesday at 7pm for week 6 of our Romans Bible Study series.  In preparation, please read Romans 10-11 as we'll be looking at the Doctrine of Justification.

High School Seniors: The J. A. Lewis Scholarship application packets are currently available from the church office.  Submission deadline is May 31, 2015.

Registration for VBS has started.  VBS will be on June 15 -19.  The cost is $20 per family, $15 per couple, and $10 single.  VBS will have something for the whole family.  Don't miss out!

For those who signed up as interested in ministry to India, we are looking to have a follow-up meeting with Global Hope India after a church service.  If I can confirm it with GHI, we may have it next Sunday. Stay tuned.

Happy Mothers Day to all moms!  This Mother's Day video from Paul David Tripp is specifically for single moms but also applies to all mothers and even all Christians.

Whether you are a single mom or not, we all live with limits (that God in His sovereignty has placed on us).  So even if you are a single mom, a mom who has lost children or aborted a baby, or a woman who desires to be a mother but it has not happened yet, please know that God has not turned His back on you. You have not been forsaken.  God's grace towards us is that He gives us a church family that should care for each other.  So admit your weaknesses and seek help.

One of the reasons we have Life Groups is to create an environment where people can admit weaknesses in a smaller context and get help through prayer and accountability.  Deaconess Peggy Credle shared a testimony about her Life Group called GROW (God Renewing Our Women).  Please check out other Life Groups and get plugged in.

Our next new sermon series will be called "Twisted" where we'll be looking at some of the biggest misused Bible verses such as "Judge not lest ye be judged", "speaking those things which be not as though they were", and my personal favorite, Jeremiah 29:11. This series begins on 5/24.

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.
