Opportunities to Serve Our Community, Support Haiti Missions Trip, Christmas Program and Dinner Social (Pastoral Emphasis for 12/2)

Our mission is to worship Christ, spread the Gospel, and serve the community.  As we enter the Christmas holiday season, we have a few great opportunities for us to serve our community:
  • Zone 3 is now sponsoring a Coat Drive until 12/9. We are asking members (all zones) to donate any coats that would help warm another this winter season. Please bring all CLEAN coats to the church and put in collection box that is marked. Thank you for your support!
  • Our Missions Ministry is collecting toiletry items for the area nursing homes residents for Christmas gifts. Please bring all items to the church and place them in the marked collection boxes. All items will be collected until 12/7. Items needed: toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, socks, mouthwash, depends, all sizes hand sanitizer, tissue (Kleenex).
  • Then on 12/8 at 4pm, we will be Christmas Caroling at the local area nursing homes. All participants are asked to arrive at the church no later than 3:15 for departure at 3:30. 
If you've ever wondered how you can help spread the Gospel to the nations when you are not able to go on a missions trip…well, you can support someone going on a missions trip. Our Haiti Missions Team is going to Haiti in January and you support any of them in their fundraising. You can contact Deacon Rufus Credle via email or see Sis. Nicole Sawyer. If you don't know how to contact them, you can contact the church office.

On Saturday, 12/15, Mt. Zion is having a Christmas Program and Buffet Dinner Social. Please come out and enjoy the Fine Arts Ministry Christmas Presentation "Born to Die", as we celebrate the birth of Christ, through a Christian atmosphere of a theatrical presentation, music, food and fellowship. A buffet dinner will be served following the presentation. Mt. Zion members are asked to participate in this event by providing their favorite home cooked dessert to share with the Mt. Zion family.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...
