Pastoral Prayer for Wisdom & Discernment, 155th Church Anniversary, Praying the Psalms (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/5)

With our theme of Being a House of Prayer, we're having a pastoral prayer every Sunday. We'll have a different topic to pray for each month led by an elder. July's prayer topic is Wisdom & Discernment. Today, Elder Sean Cherry read Proverbs 2:6-10 and led us in prayer for wisdom.

Mt. Zion is currently in the process of producing a virtual production to commemorate our church’s 155th Anniversary. We would like to add some member photos to the video. If you would like to have your family included, please email the best photo of you if you're single or a group photo of your family to specialevents AT mtzioncary.org. Photos will be accepted until 5:00 pm on July 31st.


If you're like me, you may struggle at times with prayer. A lot of our struggle with prayer is because we get bored with praying the same way over and over. Next Sunday, we're starting a new series called Praying the Psalms. We're going to dig into the different types of Psalms and learn how to pray using them. Praying Scripture especially the Psalms gives us a new biblical vocabulary to use.

So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! 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.
