Prayer Request: Pastor Maurice Wright's younger sister died unexpectedly so please pray for him and his family during this difficult time of bereavement.

This afternoon at 4pm, Deacon James Warmack gave his Initial Sermon.  He preached from Gal. 5:1-14 on the subject "Who Hindered You?"  Thanks to all who came out to support him.

Don't forget that we're collecting Back to School supplies until August 21st for West Cary Middle School and The Oxford Children's Home. Flyers are at the Welcome Center for the needed items by Zones.

Oak City Academy has shared with us some needs they have.  Our liaison, Sis. Staci Torrence gave us the details on ways we could help.



Deaconess Peggy Credle shared her testimony of how good God has been to her even after having several strokes.

On 8/28, we're starting a new series addressing depression, called "Gospel Light in Deep Darkness".  Please be praying for God to move during this series.  Join us and bring a friend.

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.
