Opportunities to Serve, Speaking at NDFC, Church Family Meeting (Pastoral Emphasis for 4/17)

Please check the announcements in the bulletin, on our church bulletin board, or on our website. We have a lot of opportunities for you to get involved in serving others and outreach. Are you bearing much fruit?
  • Another opportunity to serve at Brown Bag Ministry with the Devoted Disciples Youth Ministry on Saturday, April 23. For more information, contact Sister Tracy Downing. 
  • This afternoon, everyone is invited to join Zone 2 members to minister at Cary Health & Rehab Center at 1:45pm. 

On Thursday, April 21st, I will preaching at New Dimensions Fellowship Church with Pastor Maurice Wright for their 12th Church Anniversary at 7:30pm. Our Gospel Choir will be accompanying me. Everyone is invited to the service. See the bulletin for the address. I would appreciate for your prayers and support.



Have you ever wondered how we got the Bible? Why 66 books? And what's up with those missing verses in some translations? Join us for our upcoming theological seminar on Saturday, May 7th, from 9:00am to 11:15am. Dr. Ben Merkle, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, will be teaching on "How We Got the Bible & Why It Can Be Trusted." Come out and learn about this important topic. Light refreshments will be served. Please register for the seminar online.

Starting in May, I'm starting a new sermon series. I'll reveal the book next week but here's a clue, it's a book in the Bible where God is not mentioned at all. And there are more than one book where God is not mentioned.

Our next Church Family Meeting is scheduled for next Sunday, April 24th, following the church service. We will have a guest presentation from Oak City Academy. All members are asked to attend.

Congrats to our newest members who have completed our New Members Orientation and received the right hand of fellowship today:

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 ...
