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 ...

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
