No Bible Study, Fall Spruce Up Stats, Stay Warm Drive (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/18)

Bible Study is canceled on Wednesday due to the Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday. We'll be back the following week with our final session on "Who Did Jesus Die For?". Enjoy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. We have much to be thankful for!

Thanks to all who came out yesterday to help clean the church for our Fall Spruce UP. Here are the stats:

13 members (2 youth and 1 new member)
13 members from Leadership
1 visitor – (A big shout-out to Bishop Eric Ellis of New Restoration Outreach Christian Center in Raleigh)
We worked 46.38 total hours for a total savings of $1,159.58.
A huge thank you to Elder Bobby Dunn for really stepping up and helping out.

Devoted Disciples Youth Ministry will be doing a Stay Warm Drive from 11/25 to 12/23. Please bring in hats, scarves, gloves, & blankets to be donated to the homeless.

Today, we started our new sermon series called "Wounded: How the Gospel Heals the Sexually Hurting". As we go through this series, we'll be tackling some very sensitive subjects that could possibly trigger those who have been sexually wounded in the past. So please feel to step out of the sanctuary if you need to. We'll have people available to pray for you. We also have children's church and youth service available for the children to attend. At any point, feel free to reach out to me or someone else that you trust to get help.

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 .
