National Day of Prayer Service, Spring Spruce Up Stats, Love Offering for Tornado Victims (Pastoral Emphasis for 4/29)


Thursday, May 3rd, is the National Day of Prayer. Pastors Praying Together (my prayer group) will have National Day of Prayer service on Thursday at 7pm here at Mt. Zion. Everyone is invited to join us and bring a friend.

A BIG thank you to all who came to help clean at our Spring Spruce Up. Here are some stats:
  • 41 attendees 
  • 1 visitor 
  • 4 children
  • 19 members from leadership
  • Total hours worked - 115
  • Total money saved by cleaning our entire church, vacuuming our floors, and shampooing our carpet - $2885.42. Our biggest savings ever!
  • We will have our next Spruce UP in the fall.
All members are asked to stay after service for our Church Family Meeting. We have important news to share.

Next Sunday, we're going to raise a love offering to help those who were impacted by the tornado in Greensboro. It touched down on the eastern side of Greensboro and left a path of destruction that was 33.6 miles long and roughly one-quarter of a mile wide. There are several churches in the area doing great work. We'll finalize this week on which one we will partner with. Please come prepared to give generously to the love offering next Sunday. If you want to give before then, make sure to put a note that says Greensboro Tornado.

Thanks to all who came out to the Church Family Meeting. Our focus is reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! I shared the following email that we got via our website to show that we are spreading the Gospel worldwide. To God be the glory! Greetings Mt. Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church. I was talking to my very dear sister, soror, friend Sis Brandi Hancock and she and I were having a heart to heart. I told her that I was
