Back to School Drive Results, Corporate Prayer, Ruth Bible Study (Pastoral Emphasis for 9/1)

Thanks to everyone who participated in our Back to School Drive. Due to your generosity, we were able to fill 6 boxes of assorted school supplies that were delivered Wednesday to West Cary Middle School and to the Masonic Oxford Children's Home. These items would have a retail value in excess of $1200. Both the school and the children's home were very appreciative of what we have done.

In light of another mass shooting this weekend, Hurricane Dorian approaching, and the fire raging in the Amazon, it should be no surprise that prayer is greatly needed. There are two great opportunities for corporate prayer this week: Church-Wide Prayer Gathering on Tuesday from 7 to 8pm and Prayer & Testimony Service on Wednesday from 6 to 7pm.

On Wednesday, we're starting a new Bible Study series on the book of Ruth. We're be using the book Renewal: Grace and Redemption in the Story of Ruth by our friend, Pastor Jerome Gay, Jr.

Due to this being Labor Day weekend, we're not having Communion today but it will be next Sunday, 9/8.

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
