"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen! " The cross that was intended for evil was the means to redeem lost humanity. If God can bring good out of the crucifixion of His Son, then He can bring good from any horror that befalls His children. Happy Easter! Attention: All Mt. Zion Members Ages 50 & Above...The Music Ministry is gearing up for the singing debut of the Mt. Zion Senior Choir on Sun., Apr. 26th.

Good Friday was humanity's darkest day. When one thinks of how unjust the crucifixion was, one could easily get the impression that might makes right, that justice is a joke, goodness a farce, and that righteousness is of no consequence. When one looks at Good Friday, one could get the impression that God's face had been turned away from the creation and we had been left to the reign of human beings who had the power to manipulate and control our destinies to fit their selfish purposes. When one looks at Good Friday, one could get the impression that money and power control human destiny. What is so good about Good Friday? It is the fact that it was God's plan for His Son to willingly give His life on the cross for us! It is the fact that the death of Jesus accomplished God's purpose to redeem mankind. Friday was good so that Sunday could be GREAT! Have a blessed Good Friday!

On Sunday, I celebrated my seventh pastoral anniversary. I thank everyone for your prayers, encouragements, and well wishes. I thank God for my wife, Anita, for being a great support to me. She is a strong woman and wonderful mother who is able to care for our three children while I'm out doing pastoral ministry. Seven years have gone by quickly and God has accomplished much in the ministry. But I believe we have have only begun. Looking forward to all that God has in store for us! Any men who are interested in mentoring our male youth are asked to sign up at the Welcome Center. Please see Bro. George Richards for more information. This coming Sunday is Easter.
