Brother 2 Brother: Real Talk, Easter Celebration, Spring Spruce Up (Pastoral Emphasis for 4/7)

We have a lot happening in April!


Men, we will begin the Brother 2 Brother: Real Talk Fellowship meetings on Saturday, 4/13, at 1:00 pm in Adult Classroom 3. This will be an opportunity for fathers, sons, uncles, and brothers to come together and discuss topics of today unfiltered and unfettered. We will talk to one another, listen to one another, support one another, and pray for one another. For questions, contact Brother Corey Smith and Brother Pat Wilson.

Join us for our Easter celebration:
  • Good Friday service on 4/19 from 6:30-7:30pm 
  • Easter Egg Hunt on 4/20 at 2pm 
  • Easter Program on 4/20 at 3pm 
  • Sunrise Easter & Communion Service on 4/21 at 6am 

We'll have our Spring Spruce Up on 4/27 from 9 am to 12 pm. Come out for part of or the whole time to help us keep our church facility clean. We save a lot of money by cleaning it ourselves.

Mark your calendars for our next Church Family Meeting on 4/28 right after the church service.

This month I celebrate 17 years of pastoral ministry. I praise God for His grace, my wonderful family, and the awesome Mt. Zion Church family!!

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
