January Birthdays & Anniversaries, Isaiah Bible Study, Habitat for Humanity (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/4)

Bereavements

Let us continue to lift up in prayer those members of our church family who laid loved ones to rest yesterday. We especially remember the Dunn, Credle/Stanley, and Fortenberry/Brooks families. May the God of all comfort surround them with His peace, strengthen them in their grief, and remind them that they do not walk through this season alone.

January Senior Birthday Surprise

A special shout-out to Van Johnson, our January Senior Birthday Surprise honoree! We thank God for your life and the blessing you are to our church family.

Bible Study

This year, our Bible Study will journey through the book of Isaiah under the theme “Judgment, Comfort, and Restoration.” For the month of January, we’ll begin with Isaiah chapters 1–6, where God confronts sin, reveals His holiness, and lovingly calls His people back to Himself—laying the foundation for hope and renewal.

We invite you to read Isaiah chapter 1 and join us on Wednesday at 7:00 pm as we hear both the warning and the promise of a holy God who restores His people.

Habitat for Humanity Interest Meeting

Housing and homelessness continue to be growing concerns in our community. Mt. Zion is partnering with Habitat for Humanity in two meaningful ways:

Joining other churches to help build homes
Advocating alongside other churches before the Cary Town Council

If either of these opportunities interests you, please attend the Habitat for Humanity Interest Meeting today from 12:30–1:30 pm in the Multipurpose Room. This is a wonderful chance to learn how we can put faith into action by loving our neighbors in tangible ways.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community. Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
