Unity Walk in Cary, My Hope Sunday, NAMI Resources (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/2)

Please pray for Sis. Hattie Williams.  She had an accident which resulted in two broken ribs.  She is in a lot of pain so the doctors have given her pain medicine while she waits for her ribs to heal.  Please pray for a speedy recovery.

With all of the strife and division that is happening in communities across our country, there will be a very cool event happening in November.  Bro. Jimmy Clemons and Officer JB announced that there will be unity walk in Cary on 11/12. 


My Hope Sunday is next Sunday, 10/9.  We will address the topic, "Why Does Bad Things Happen to Good People?"  All of our guests will hear the Gospel directed plainly towards them.   Afterwards, we'll have food trucks here for you to purchase lunch and fellowship with your guests and prayerfully engage in some gospel conversations.  This week, please follow-up with those you have invited.  And there's still time for you to invite people.  Invitation cards are available at the Welcome Center.  This week, I'm calling for a fast, primarily for My Hope as well as for the racial strife in our nation and our presidential election.  Also, pray and read the daily Scriptures on the back of the invitation card:

Evangelist Barry Singleton shared his testimony about how God has continually blessed his life through prostrate cancer and a heart attack.  Sis. Lachonya Williams shared her testimony about her mom passing due to breast cancer, how Jesus sustained her in her bereavement, and how that experience helped her share her faith with a co-worker who was losing her job.

Right after church today, AKA and NAMI presented Sharing Hope: Understanding Mental Health.  It was very informative to hear the testimonies and find out that there are resources available for families dealing with mental health issues.  For some information about NAMI in NC, check out their website and in Wake County.
