Energize is excited to announce the launch of our summer 2022 Encourage Your Pastor VBS Bus Tour. The Bible tells us that a little child shall lead them. How do we influence the environment of care and prayer for our church leadership? It starts with our children. They are our future leaders and they are not too young to learn how God can use them now to support and encourage their pastors and ministry leaders. You are never too young to be a blessing and serve the Lord! They can #Betheone!
We’re offering to make a special appearance at your VBS, hand out coloring sheets for the kids who want to write a note or prayer of encouragement to their pastors and leaders, give them a tour of the Energize bus, and leave a gift bag for your pastor(s). We are super excited to offer this brief visits at no cost! There’s no catch, just a fun and encouraging way to share with your kids and add a unique experience to your VBS! – We’ll be scheduling stops all summer across VA, NC, SC, TN, GA, and AL!
If you’re interested, we’d love to see you! Click here to fill out the request form, and we’ll get back to you ASAP! Hope to see you this summer!
The calling of God requires faith.
Sometimes ministry can be discouraging, but when discouragement comes, it’s important to remember that you walk by faith….not by what you see.
Stay strong and keep walking by faith! God is with you!

The 9th Annual Master’s Day Golf Classic will be tee off at 9:00am on Friday, June 12, 2015 at Maple Chase Golf & Country Club and conclude on Friday afternoon with an awards presentation. Participation in this tournament will benefit Camp Hope. Camp Hope gives under-resourced kids in our community the opportunity to attend summer camp. Camp Hope is designed to build self worth, character, and a Christ centered faith in the lives of kids.
The children who attend this camp are victims of abuse and most often live in foster homes. Through this one week, children’s lives can be changed forever by seeing that a positive experience with a loving adult role model is possible, that they can succeed, and experiencing a week of relief from their current situation and experience care, love, and encouragement.
Proceeds: Camp Hope – a camp designed for under resourced and abused children in our community.
In a time when society is trying to convince our youth that life is all about self; self-indulgence, self-centeredness, self-reliance, our desire is to help the youth see that’s its really about surrendering self and relying on Jesus.
In Psalm 119:50 we read “Your promise revives me; it comforts me in all my troubles.” We desire to see our youth find comfort in God’s promises. To renew, recharge, rejuvenate, and rekindle their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Invite your friends, family, and youth groups to join us for our seventh year of providing this awesome opportunity to reconnect with God through praise, worship, and service.
With all the negative influences our youth face on a daily basis, we feel it is very important to offer our youth as many opportunities as possible to:
Grow stronger in their faith
Meet and fellowship with other young Christians
Hear strong sermons and messages that relate to them
Hear testimonials from their peers so they realize that sharing their story can be “cool”
Realize that Christian music can be modern, fun, and relevant to them

A memorial fund has been established for Alexander Perez, the 10-year-old boy who died Monday March 9, 2015 after he was struck by a SUV in southern Winston-Salem.
The Alexander T. Perez Memorial Fund is at Carolina Bank at 275 N. Stratford Road in Winston-Salem.
George Stabolitis, the owner of The Carriage House Restaurant, said he established the fund because many people want to help the Perez family. The proceeds will go toward helping the family pay funeral costs and other expenses, Stabolitis said.
A graveside service for Alexander was held Friday March 13, 2013 at Mount Gur Cemetery in Kernersville.
For more information, call Carolina Bank at (336) 747-1900.
