Welcome to The Pulse! Please take a minute to check out what's happening at Church of the Apostles.

Please join your church in praying for the following requests for the life and mission of the church:
+ Please pray for people in eastern NC who are still rebuilding after Hurricane Florence, and pray that our church's relief team will be an encouragement and the aroma of Christ for those they assist.
+ Pray for our mission partner in Ukraine, CCX, that the Lord would draw university students to know him through their work.
+ Pray also for our church's children, that they would know and follow Jesus as Savior and Lord all of their days.

When Church of the Apostles began meeting in our current space in May 2008, we had a loan balance of $4,572,581. We continue to give thanks that, with contributions from Upon this Rock, Freedom for Mission and the sale of the land for the parking deck, we have been debt free for a year! As a result of your stewardship and God's faithfulness during Freedom for Mission, we have been able to allocate $374,826 toward direct mission grants and increase our Missions budget by 99% over our prior fiscal year.
