We're a Family, Prayer Concerns around the World (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/22)

Let's continue to pray for Bro. Britt Norton after the passing of his wife, Norma (and mother-in-law). You didn't have to know Sis. Norma or know Bro. Britt well to care and check on him. We're must get out of our individualized mindset and remember that we're a family.  Whether we know someone or know them well, if they are members of our church, we should be intentional about being there for each other in good and bad times.  And let us not forget any of our widows and widowers.


As we look around the world, we have much to pray for.  Including...
  • Haiti, which was recently hit by a 7.2 earthquake that killed 2,189 lives and counting. 
  • Afghanistan,  which has taken been taken over by the Taliban. Pray for the civilians especially women, children, and Christians. 
  • The Northeast, that's about to feel the wrath of Henri. I'm not talking about Deacon Spivey but Hurricane Henri.

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. 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
