Fall Spruce Up, My Hope Sunday, Sabbatical (Pastoral Emphasis for 9/29)

Today, we had a joint service with New Life Ministries of Apex. We had a wonderful time worshipping with Pastor Daryl Cody and the rest of the NLM family.

We still have some tickets left for the Prayer Rally 2019 that's happening on Tuesday, October 1st at 7pm in Raleigh. Prayer 2019 is an area-wide gathering with over 100 churches participating across denominations and ethnic groups for a night of prayer. They are also asking people to bring non-perishable goods to be donated to With Love From Jesus for distribution to those in need. Please coordinate with Sis. Sandra Broadwater to get your ticket.

All are welcome to our 2019 Fall Spruce UP on Saturday, October 5th, from 9:00am -12:00pm. Come out and let's clean God’s house.

My Hope Sunday will be October 13. 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. We have commitment cards today where you can write down the name(s) of those you are committed to inviting. We will collect the commitment cards on 10/6. Now's the time to start inviting them to My Hope Sunday.

In preparation for My Hope, Sis. Peggy Credle will be sharing her testimony about how God reconciled some issues in her family because she waited on Him. 

I will be on sabbatical during the month of October to get some much needed rest, more time in prayer, and time to visit my mother in Michigan.
