Theological Seminar, Church-Wide Prayer Gathering, Battling Depression (Pastoral Emphasis for 5/27)

We have much to pray for. Evangelist Barry Singleton had a stroke resulting in some paralysis on his right side. I visited with him on Saturday and he's up, moving about, and regaining mobility on his right side.  Elder Wilbur Lucas' medical condition has deteriorated. He is very weak. But he was in good spirits when I visited him on Friday. He had surgery this morning.  As a church body, we prayed and interceded for our two brothers especially Elder Lucas that God would be merciful and heal according to His will.  Please continue to lift them and their families in your prayers.

Thanks to all who attended yesterday's Theological Seminar. Pastor Jerome Gay really brought the heat! If you missed it, I would HIGHLY recommend that you watch the video on our Facebook page or Zion Live.





















Starting in June, our Church-Wide Prayer Gathering will be on the first Tuesdays of the month at 7pm. So our first one will be June 5th.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Since depression and mental health issues are forms of suffering then they are ultimately spiritual issues. If that's the case, then what's the role of medication? Check out this wonderful video from Dr. Ed Welch of CCEF.

Thanks to all who came out to the Church Family Meeting. Our focus is reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even though we don't have a formal dress code at church, I think we have an unspoken one. Our guest may perceive a dress code based on what they see on the stage from leadership. So in order to remove any barriers that might prevent some from visiting us or feeling comfortable in our service, the leadership will dress a little more casual. We will try this out until the end of the year and then evaluate. So don't be surprised when you see me not wearing a tie! I shared the following email that we got via our website to show that we are spreading the Gospel worldwide. To God be the glory! Greetings Mt. Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church. I was talking to my very dear sister, soror, friend Sis Brandi Hancock and she and I were having a heart to heart. I told her that I was
