Equipping Pastors Worldwide, BASL Event, Church-wide Prayer Rally (Pastoral Emphasis for 9/13)

Equipping Pastors Worldwide One of the wonderful blessings we have in the West is access to theological training for pastors and church leaders. Seminaries, Bible colleges, conferences, books, and other resources provide opportunities for pastors to deepen their understanding of God's Word and strengthen their ministries. Unfortunately, that access is not available to many pastors around the world. As part of my work with Missions: Together , I had the privilege of being introduced to an organization called Equipping Pastors Worldwide , which works to provide theological training and resources to pastors who might otherwise have little or no access to formal theological education. Today, I'm pleased to welcome Dave Holdt , who is visiting us from the United Kingdom, to share with us about this important global ministry.   Recently Joined as New Member Candidate We are excited to welcome Karen Gaston , who recently joined Mt. Zion under Watch Care . Please take a moment to welco...

Back to School Prayer, Become a Zion Connector, Celebrating Baptism (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/23)

Back to School Prayer Today, we have the privilege of praying over our children and young people as they begin another school year. As they return to classrooms, campuses, sports, activities, and new routines, we want to remind them that they do not walk into this new season alone. We are praying that God will give them wisdom, courage, protection, and discernment. May they be faithful witnesses for Christ and make choices that honor Him. Parents, grandparents, and the entire Mt. Zion family, let's continue to cover our young people in prayer throughout the school year.   A Break from Philemon We've been blessed by our current sermon series, "Reconciliation in Christ," through the book of Philemon.
