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.

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.
