April's Prayer Topic, Resurrection Weekend, Covid-19 Resources (Pastoral Emphasis for 4/5)

With our theme of Being a House of Prayer, we're going to have a pastoral prayer every Sunday. We'll have a different topic to pray for each month led by an elder. April's prayer topic is "the lost". Today, Elder Wayne Bullock read Psalm 23 and led us in prayer for the lost.

I've provided a home group study guide that you can use individually or with your family to review and discuss today's sermon. If you don't have the study guide, you can download it here.


On Friday, we'll have a Good Friday service at 6:30pm on Zion Live where we will remember the death of our Lord and Savior and then on Sunday, we'll celebrate the Resurrection at our Sunrise Easter service at 7 am. We also celebrate the Lord's Supper. We're asking members to stop by the church to pick up communion kits on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-7 pm and Saturdays from 10 am - 12 pm. As an alternative, you can use bread like tortilla and wine or grape juice.

As a church body, we are fasting and praying during Lent.  This last week, 4/6-4/11, we're fasting from Social Media, TV, or Streaming Services with a prayer focus on praising God for the resurrection, Easter Sunday, and asking God to help us bridle our tongues.

We now have a COVID-19 page on our website for everyone to stay up-to-date with community information concerning donations and free food, along with methods to stay connected with Mt. Zion.
