Cary Unity Walk, Seeing Jesus in the Prophets, CFCFC Sweethearts Gala (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/30)

Thank you all for your generous donations for our Supply Drive to help families who have been impacted by the flooding in Eastern NC. Let's keep the donations coming. And thanks for the donations to the Simply Suits Drive as well. Fathers Forever have picked up a full rack of suits so we have room for more. They also have need of more dress shirts. Both drives are scheduled to end on 11/12.


Speaking of 11/12, on that day, there will be a Unity Walk in Cary.  We want to have a good group from Mt. Zion participating.  We're asking everyone to wear their Mt. Zion t-shirts (150th anniversary or this year's theme). There is a $15 registration fee which will go to benefit two non-profit organizations, The 200 Club of Wake County and Read & Feed, that serve many needs in our community.  Even if you cannot pay the registration fee, they will not refuse you from participating. Go here to get more details and register.

We have a new Bible Study Series starting on 11/2. In keeping with our theme, "Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament", we will look at "Seeing Jesus in the Prophets".  Join us and bring a friend.

Couples: CFCFC is hosting a Sweethearts Gala on February 11th at Holiday Inn Downtown Raleigh. The cost is $100 per couple, which includes buffet dinner, guest speaker and keepsake photo. Monies are due by Nov. 30th. They are in the final stages of planning and, for accuracy purposes, need to obtain an estimate on the number of couples that plan to attend the gala. If you have not responded to Deaconess Spivey, you can get a registration form at the Welcome Center with contact information included. 

Thanks to all the members that attended our church family meeting right after the service today. Elder Wayne Bullock was re-elected to another 5-year term on the church's board of directors. We also addressed some church discipline matters.  Remember that the goal of church discipline is to guard and preserve the honor of God, protect the purity of the church, and restore the wandering member to the Lord.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
