Bereavements, First Church Family Meeting, Ordination Service (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/31)

There are several families at Mt. Zion currently experiencing bereavements.  Please pray for the following members:
  • Deaconess Rhonda Spivey's father (who was a pastor) died on Friday night 
  • Deaconess Tasha Smith (loss of an aunt) 
  • Sis. Brenda Tyrance (loss of grandbaby) 
  • Evangelist Tayon Dancy (loss of cousin) 
Join us again this Wednesday at 7:00pm for our Bible Study series, "The Promised One: Seeing Jesus in Genesis". This week, we'll look at seeing Jesus in the Tower of Babel.

We held our first Church Family Meeting for the year right after the service today. We shared important info on 2016 ministry goals, last year's finances, an update to our Constitution and By-Laws, and a statement from the elders on the importance of regular church attendance.

At 4pm, we had an Ordination Service to ordain an Elder Sean Cherry and Deacons Tim Thompson, Henri Spivey, and Corey Smith. Pastor Daryl Cody, New Life Ministries of Apex, preached the ordination message on "A Few Good Men" from Rev. 3:11.  Pastor Cody encouraged the ordination candidates to hold fast to their beliefs, character, and teaching of the Gospel. Thanks to all on came out to support these brothers in their ministry. 

My Hope Sunday is 3/20. We are asking all members to commit to inviting at least one unbeliever/unchurched person to attend church with you. Sis. Phyllis Lewis shared how her hope in Christ helped her through a financial crisis.
