Hurricane Relief, Angel Tree, Happy Veterans Day (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/10)

Please be in prayer for the Carrington family, as Bro. Warren Carrington, who was a new member, passed away recently. Keep his widow in prayer.

Due to your generosity, we raised $10K for the hurricane relief. We'll be donating to the NC Baptist on Mission to help those in western Carolina. 


 

Our Seasoned Sisters invite you to be a blessing to children of families in need by participating in the Angel Tree. So today, 11/17, and 11/24, select your Angel(s) and then stop by the table to register your Angel. Bring your gifts to AC2 on or before 11/29. 

 

Tomorrow is Veterans Day where we honor the military veterans of the United States Armed Forces. Happy Veterans Day to all of our veterans!

 

Here are some of my thoughts on the election results. As believers, let's NOT demonize those who voted differently than us or have different political views. People vote the way they vote based on a variety of reasons. And it doesn't mean that they are far-right racists or far-left liberal. Steward well our witness especially on social media. It's okay to point out sin and unrighteousness on BOTH sides of the aisle but do not belittle and ridicule people.

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 ...
