Baby Announcements, Virtual Prayer Rally, MLK Holiday (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/17)

Congratulations to Eric and Danielle Mtika on the birth of their son, Malachi on January 2, weighing 8 lbs 6 oz and 20 inches long. 



Join us on Tuesday, 1/19 for our first Virtual Prayer Rally of the year at 7pm on WebEx. You can submit your prayer requests online

Tomorrow is the Martin Luther King Jr Holiday. There is still much work to do to realize his dream where people are judged not by their color but the content of their character. As Christians, we know that racism and prejudice are sins and the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the answer. We must spread the Gospel and make disciples. 

In all of this chaos, one thing that God is doing is exposing the idols in the American church. When someone like Franklin Graham compared the Republicans who voted against Trump as the same as betraying Jesus, then you know that they are looking at Trump like he's christ. But our Savior is not Trump, Biden, Obama, or any earthly president...our Savior is the Messiah King! And our allegiance must be to Jesus. Even if we are opposed or criticized by others in the church, we must stand on Christ alone!

Zion Church Family...Today is July 27, 2009 and I would like to share the blessing that I have received from your church.
