Clothing Drive, Church-Wide Prayer Gathering, Leviticus Bible Study (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/14)

Please pray for the following families experiencing bereavement

  • Our dear friend and former member, Sis. Jackie Wooten, who laid her husband to rest on last Monday. 
  • Sis. Tasha Jones, who lost her brother and he was laid to rest yesterday. 

Love From Above is a ministry that a couple of our members (Sis. Marlene Pritchett & Joanne O'Neal Johnson) started a ministry to provide clothing to the homeless. They are in desperate need of more supplies, in particular men's clothing (sizes M, L; shoes; belts; underwear). During the month of July, we're having a clothing drive to help Love From Above. If you would like to help serve, Love From Above distributes items at Oak City Shelter in Raleigh every third Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. 

Our next church-wide prayer gathering is Tuesday, 7/16, from 7 to 8pm. Our Oneness Couples Ministry is hosting but everyone is invited for corporate prayer. You can also submit your prayer requests online or in the box at the back of the sanctuary. 


 

Even if you've been missing the Leviticus Bible Study on Wednesdays, I want to invite you to join us this Wednesday as we're going to address the objection people make when they say Christians are inconsistent about which laws we follow from the Old Testament. So if we point out from the OT that certain sexual activity is sin, people will say “but you eat pork”. So join us on Wednesdays at 7pm as we address this issue and dig deeper into Leviticus.

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.
