We had our Church Family Meeting today after the service.  A few items from the meeting...
  • Please join us on Saturday, May 8th, at 9:00 am ET for our next Virtual Theological Seminar on “Thinking Biblically About Transgenderism”. Our guest speaker will be Dr. Peter Goeman, a professor at Shepherds Theological Seminary in Cary, NC. He will help us understand the worldview behind transgenderism and how we can respond from a biblical worldview. Please register here for the free seminar.
  • In 2019, we had a PACKHope event with other churches to package seeds to send to countries in need of a sustainable food supply. We are now preparing for another large PACKHOPE event with Unto, the humanitarian aid ministry of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ International). On Saturday, July 10th, the event will be held outside on the field next to the church. We will gather with members of at least four other churches to package 120,000 rice & bean meals for distribution by Unto to refugees and food insecure communities in some of the toughest places on earth – Africa, The Middle East, Latin America, and Central Asia. For more information, please contact Minister Matt Darby or Elder Sean Cherry.
  • Those of you who have children in the youth ministry have already heard the announcement, but I want to let everyone know that Sis. Tracy Dunn will be stepping down as Youth Director on 6/30. Sis. Tracy will be focusing on mentoring and discipling young ladies. I want to publicly thank Sis. Tracy for all of the years of service to help disciple our youth. I'm excited to announce that Jae and Kelly Smith will become our new Youth Directors.

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
