Prayer Requests, Church Family Meeting, Speaking at Trinity Park Church (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/30)

Please keep the following individuals in your prayers who are dealing with health-related problems: 
  • John Thorne – at home recovering from a heart issue 
  • Joselyn Cepeda – dealing with health issues 
  • Van Johnson – at home recovering from surgery 
  • Lou Eldridge – at home recovering from surgery 
  • Mother Roxie Barnett – dealing with a lot of pain;  desiring to be with the Lord 
Please pray for the following members who have bereavements:
  • Mary Higginbotham (the passing of her son) 
  • Rasheeda Oliver (the passing of her aunt) 
  • Aprile King (the passing of her younger sister) 

We had our last Church Family Meeting for the year right after the service today. Here are a few highlighted items from the meeting:
  • We're making a change to Foundation Fellowship in ‘23. Since it seems people enjoy the times that we break out into separate Men and Women's classes, we'll be having separate classes for two months and then combined for two months. So we'll have separate classes for January and February and then combined classes for March and April and so forth. 
  • Evangelist Patrick Wilson will be stepping down as the Ministry Director since he's not able to devote the time to it like he desires due to schedule and personal issues. I'm happy to announce that Minister Kevin Coppage will be taking over as Ministry Director. 
  • One of the things that came out of the From the Womb to the Tomb discussion is that Mt. Zion wants to be a safe place for people to get help. If you are facing any type of life issue like divorce, unwanted pregnancy, health issues, or having to make a decision about the care of an ill family member, we want you to feel okay to come to the church for support and help. One of the easy ways for us to support you is to resume having someone available in the Prayer Room (next to the Media Room) after the service to pray with anyone who wants it.
Next Sunday, I will be speaking at Trinity Park Church for their morning service. Please pray that I would serve them well with the Word of God. The Jesus is Better series will continue at Mt. Zion next Sunday.

Dress Code, Spreading the Gospel to Japan, Skits & Pizza (Pastoral Emphasis from 7/26)

Thanks to all who came out to the Church Family Meeting. Our focus is reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. 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. 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
