MLK Weekend Recap, Church Clean Up, Church Family Meeting (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/22)

Thanks to everyone who participated and served at our MLK Walk for Hope. Here's a summary of what God enabled us to do: 
  • Over 50 boxes of donations were received 
  • 368 Participants-279 in Realm and 89 registered in person 
  • 30+ Volunteers, including Mt. Zion members (Children's, Deacons,, Hospitality, IT, Security, Ushers, Kim Roberts, Shebbie Coppage & MLK Planning Committee Members - Val Anderson, Laurie Anderson, and Tam Jones ) 
  • 28 Hope Cards were made in the children's activity area. The cards will be distributed to children's hospitals and homeless shelters by the Hope for Kids organization. 
Part of our mission is to Serve the Community. The church gathers to worship on Sundays and then scatters into the community during the week to be a witness for Christ. It's so nice to see our members out serving in their local communities. Check out this MLK Weekend Recap Video:

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

My Hope Sunday, M:T Not a Competition, Prayer Gathering (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday ! We had several invited guests, and my message was from 1 Samuel 8:4-9 on "Looking for a Savior".  Israel wanted a king like the other nations who would “save” them. This is the very definition of a functional savior. A functional savior is anything or anyone a person looks to for ultimate hope, security, identity, or fulfillment in place of God. Whatever you look to to “save” you from your problems, fears, or insecurities is your functional savior. But all of our functional saviors cannot save us. Jesus is the Savior we really need!  Our greatest need in this life and the life to come is to have our sins forgiven by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Today, my wife shared her My Hope Testimony .   (RSS Subscribers: click here to watch the video) Missions:Together’s "Not a Competition" is a powerful missions gathering designed to re-ignite your passion for missions on Saturday, November 2, hosted at The Summit Church in Apex.
