Hurricane Relief Drive, Fall FPU Session, Church Family Meeting (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/28)

Thanks to all who participated in our Theological Seminar on yesterday about How to Study the Bible. For those who missed it, I would definitely recommend that watch the recording. We also have some leftover handouts at the Welcome Center.

Thank you for your generous donations to our Hurricane Relief Supply drive. Because of you, we have been able to donate 6 boxes of canned goods & cleaning supplies and the equivalent of 6 boxes of paper towels/toilet tissue to help those who in eastern NC affected by hurricane and flooding. And we still have about 3 more boxes of canned goods accumulated. You still have another week to donate as we'll end our drive on 11/4. There's a copy of the supply list at the Welcome Center.

Just a reminder that our friends and neighbors at Raleigh Chinese Christian Church have invited us to their Fall Fun Festival on Wednesday, 10/31, where they will have games, bounce house, prizes, music. The festival time will be 6:30-8pm. Free dinner will be 6-7pm. You can also join us for Bible Study at 7pm which will be the conclusion of the Names of God series.


We will be starting the Fall 2018 session of Financial Peace University on Saturday, November 3rd, at 9:30am. The first class is open to the entire congregation and any guest interested in learning how they can take a proven, practical, and Godly approach to successfully managing their finances. Contact Deacon Adrian Jones with questions.

We had our last Church Family Meeting of the year where we announced monthly Youth Services, rebranding Sunday School to Foundations Fellowship, noonday prayer & Bible Study, next sermon series, and elected Elder Bobby Dunn to the church's Board of Directors.

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...
