Update Contact Info, Stay Warm Drive, Holiday Extravaganza (Pastoral Emphasis for 12/9)

Happy Snow Day!  Due to the winter storm, we did not have church service but we were still able to worship and get God's Word via Zion Live.  Praise God for technology!


We are requesting that all members to update your address/contact information with the Church Office by emailing info AT mtzioncary.org. We would like to have this update by December 10th.

The Devoted Disciples need your help with collecting coats, hats, gloves, scarves, and socks for their "Stay Warm" drive for the homeless and those in need. Please support by donating these items by December 23rd.

New Dimensions and the Pastors Praying Together group will be having our Holiday Extravaganza again this year. It will be on Saturday, 12/15 starting 12 to 3 pm at Cary Church of God (on Evans Road). There will be food, fellowship, fine arts, as well as a collection for a Winter Drive & Hurricane Relief. So we'll be donating some of the items from our "Stay Warm" drive.

We were scheduled to cover how the Gospel heals those wounded by sexual assault and rape today as part of our "Wounded: How the Gospel Heals the Sexually Hurting" but since we didn't have church I decided to wait until next Sunday to give this message.  This type of message will be better served when we can gather together instead of being onlien.  Instead, I added a bonus message on "Overcoming Sexual Temptation".  If you missed it, you can watch it from the archives on Zion Live.

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 ...
