Welcome to The Pulse! Please take a minute to check out what's happening in the life of COTA.
|
Please join your church in praying for the following requests for the life and mission of the church:
+ Please pray for our church, that we will be led by the Holy Spirit in the coming year, and that he will show his power as we depend on him in prayer.
+ Pray also for the women inmates who participate in our Women's Prison Ministry, that they will come to know the gracious and compassionate God who made them. And pray for Linda, Laura and Leah, who lead this ministry from our church.
+ Pray for Curt Solomon as he makes his weekly trips to Wilmington, NC, to meet with the church plant launch team that the Lord is bringing together there. Pray that the Lord will add new members weekly to their group as they grow into a newly forming congregation. Pray for clear vision and God's strength for Curt as he leads the group and meets with prospective members.

WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
It's that time of year again! Snow is in the forecast for Friday and Saturday and we wanted to remind you of some details regarding inclement weather.
WRAL and Mix 101.5 will have any information regarding closings, cancellations or delays at Church of the Apostles. We will also send an email to those on
The Pulse list regarding the same. Please use caution when considering travel.
Special note: Church at North Hills Street (which runs along our main entrance) tends to stay icy longer, so please use the "lower lot" entrance in the case of road issues and, of course, utilize the parking deck. Be safe!

THE FEAR FACTOR: HOW FEAR CONFINES OUR FAITH
He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" ~ Mark 4:40
Fear. Most of us don't sit around thinking about what we are fearful of and why. But what if our fears actually prevent us from experiencing deep, abiding faith? Join us for this sacred time away as we discover how to think "outside the box" fear creates and begin to live fully by faith.
