VBS Planning, Easter, Easter Food Drive & Events, Corral Riding Family in Need (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/17)

Do you have gifts of teaching, hospitality, service, administration, leadership, exhortation? Those gifts and more are needed to assist with VBS 2024. Come to the VBS Planning Committee Meeting directly after service today to find out more about how to get involved.

Mt. Zion is partnering with Dorcas Ministries for their first annual Easter Food Drive! We want to help fill their shelves so we can help serve and bless our community. The plan is to collect donations in March and focus on what is most needed in the pantry each week. 


 

As we come to the final couple of weeks of Lent, don't forget that we're fasting and praying specifically for how to establish a relationship and outreach to our neighbors in Northwoods Crossing. If God gives you any ideas, please email them to outreach AT mtzioncary.org. 

 

Everyone is invited to our Easter Weekend events.  Join us for our Good Friday service on 3/29 from 6:30-7:30pm. Bring the children out to our Easter Egg Hunt on 3/30 at 1pm.  On 3/31, we'll have Sunrise Easter service at 6am and we'll celebrate Communion. That will be our ONLY service (no 10am service). 


 

We have an opportunity to show love in action through our missional relationship with Corral Riding. One of the families, the Burrell family, suffered a house fire and lost everything but their lives were preserved. They have many needs which you can sign up to donate. The Signup Genius will be open for another week or so. Please contact Deaconess Rhonda Spivey for any questions. A week later after the fire, the family lost a daughter by suicide. There's a GoFundMe available to help towards their funeral costs. 

Please pray for Anita and I as we're traveling to Japan this week for an anniversary trip as well as visit with Abigail. We'll be back on Good Friday

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
