Seminar Presentation, Mentors for Single Mothers, My Hope Sunday (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/24)

I want to remind everyone that there's a difference between the umbrella stands and the trash cans. We've found trash in the umbrella stands...including lottery tickets (that's probably a subject to address at a later date)!!

Thanks to all who attended yesterday's Theological Seminar on "How to Interpret the Bible". If you missed it, you can watch it from the archives on Zion Live. Also, you can download my presentation from here.

Ladies, we need mentors for single mothers. There was a brief informational meeting after church service today for those who are interested in becoming a mentor. If you missed the meeting and are interested, please follow-up with Minister Jacquelyn Harrison.

My Hope Sunday is 3/10. All of our members are asked to commit to inviting at least one unbeliever or unchurched person to join us at church on My Hope Sunday. During that service, we will share the hope we have in Jesus Christ. Take a commitment card and write down the name(s) of those you are committed to inviting. We will collect the commitment cards next Sunday, 3/3, to pray over the names. Also grab some invitation cards to invite your guests.

 
Today, we heard testimonies from members from Sister Pam Mosley and Brother Ellery Oliver.  Sis. Mosley shared how God has been with her from an early age especially when she was involved in a car accident.  Bro. Oliver shared that although he grew up in church, it wasn't until after he was married and his wife had been praying for him that he trusted in Christ.

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 ...

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...
