THE OUTREACH

“I beseech you

therefore, brethren, by

the mercies of God,

that ye present your

bodies a living sacrifice,

holy, acceptable unto

God, which is your rea-

sonable service.

And be not con-

formed to this world:

but be ye transformed

by the renewing of

your mind, that ye may

prove what is that

good, and acceptable,

and perfect, will of

God....”

Romans 12: 1-2

Homecoming 2013 When you think about homecoming, the first thing that

comes to mind is food, family, and fellowship. The word

“Home” derives from more than just a physical place but more

like a continuum of memories, feelings, and experiences. It is

a circle of life filled with triumphs and trials. Home is a library

full of dreams, disappointments, failures, successes, and

achievements. Home is a fixed and portable concept that has

to be revisited every now and then.

On the 4th Sunday in August, Mt. Sinai celebrated its

homecoming. Families came back “home” to revisit their

memories and the history that have been imprinted in their

lives. Mt. Sinai was first established in 1874 and was pas-

tored by many, including the late Rev. George W. Manning.

Mt. Sinai has been under the leadership of Rev. W. L. Moody

for 6 years now. A powerful word was delivered at the 11 a.m.

worship service followed by the festivities of food and fellow-

ship. The body of Christ made a decision to take it back “to

the old days” and make it a traditional fellowship. The festivi-

ties took place outdoors and included the traditional “Sunday

Feast.” Submitted by: Kenise Ford

A Call To Live Holy

Welcoming One of Our Own to the Ministry “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and

before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed

you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5

On September 8th, 2013, a powerful message entitled

“Staying Connected to God” was delivered by our very

own Minister Terrell Glenn. His message was based

around the familiar story of Job and the trials and tribula-

tions of his life. Just like Job in the Bible, Minister Glenn

has vowed to stay committed to God no matter the ob-

stacles put in front of him. During his sermon, he gave

points and backed them up with not only biblical refer-

ences but examples of people throughout the course of

the Bible. His message was blessed and inspirational to

everyone in attendance. Our dear friend Reverend San-

dra Draper stated, “Minister Glenn is a seasoned minis-

ter of the word of God.” Minister Glenn is only nineteen

years of age and is living proof that God is still calling

disciples to carry out his work on this side of heaven. We

encourage you to join in welcoming and congratulating

Minister Terrell Glenn on accepting the call given by

God. Submitted by: Dre’mon Miller

Construction is a process of

working to make something bet-

ter. We are under construction

and sometimes from our own

point of view construction looks

like a big mess. In our life when

God is at work in developing us

the construction process some-

times hurt, but with God the

plan is always to heal and make

better. God is making renova-

tions in our life, church and

community. He is still working

on us replacing old habits and

old ways of thinking. We are a

work in progress and I believe

God is not destroying but build-

ing us up to be better. We can

have confidence that God's end

results will bring a better rela-

tionship with one another. The

construction process may not

be pretty, smooth or exciting,

but trusting God always gives

p o s i t i v e r e s u l t s .

Jesus came and did a new

thing and the construction pro-

ject took some time. It reads in

the bible that Jesus had some

troubles teaching salvation

through his life, death and res-

urrection. The renovation took

some time, the construction

was often messy, but God pre-

vailed.

Expressing The Enjoyment Of Returning To School

Back 2 School

We are all excited to say that a new school year has begun for the youth at Mt. Sinai Bap-tist Church. We have all ages of youth going into preschool, elementary, middle and high school! Our youth is striving to the best of their ability to make it through the school year and to make excellent grades. With the help of the Young Adult Ministry and congregants at Mt. Sinai encouraging them every step of the way, we know they can achieve all of their goals. We are putting the youth in God’s hands while they are at school. We are praying for everyone’s safety knowing that angels will be protecting not only our youth but the whole school from hurt, harm and danger. Our youth will succeed! It’s just a matter of time until they say, "I did it!” and are walking across the stage to receive their individual diplo-mas. Some of the youth were asked what goals they have for the school year and this is what they had to say:

Responses

Samia Ross: "Make good grades" Tia Neblett: "Do good, be smart and not get in trouble"

Ahmya Clarke-Johnson: “Be a math champion” Heaven Ross: “Get all good grades” Jibril Clarke: “To walk—graduate” DeVont’e Miller: “Graduate and to play a successful season of sports”

Getting Rid of Dandruff

Did you know that changing your deodorant can cause dandruff to worsen? Dandruff which is also known as seborrhea is a common form of skin eczema that occurs in parts of the body with a high oil (sebum) production. Here are 3 tips to help get rid of dandruff:

1. Shampoos: They can be brought over the counter and here are some clue medicated substances to look for in sham-poos.

Zinc pyrithione (located in Head and Shoulders Shampoo) Selenium sulfide (located in Selsun blue Shampoo) Ketoconazole (located in Nizoral shampoo) You can use them all the time or twice a week to get rid of the dan-druff.

2. Creams. Two additional types of medications creams that assist with dandruff are cortisone and antifungal creams.

Cortisone creams reduce inflammation. You can buy them over

the counter in either 0.5% or 1% concentrations. They are safe to use on the face and will often help in just a couple of days when applied twice daily.

Antifungal Creams - are often effective, apparently because

they reduce the number of yeast organisms living on the skin. Antifungal creams also are applied once or twice a day.

3. If none of these solutions work, then a doctor is recom-

mended. Hopefully these tips will enhance your beauty. Submitted by: Atiesha Miller
