Walk/Run for Corral Riding, Happy Mother's Day (Pastoral Emphasis for 5/9)


Mt. Zion is partnering with Trinity Park Church for a 5k (3.1 miles) walk/run on Saturday, May 22 at 8:00am. We will walk at the Black Greenway Trail off of Maynard Road near the church. The mission is to support Corral Riding who ministers to and supports at-risk girls and for us to show love in action with our neighboring church. Register today. Contact Evangelist Tayon Dancy for more information. 



Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers!

But we should acknowledge that Mother's Day can be bittersweet for many for various reasons. Some of you have lost your mother. Take comfort in God, our heavenly Father. The Bible says that God watches over His people like a hen who protects her chicks under her wings. If you are in Christ and your mother was in Christ, then you shall see her again. 

Some mothers have lost children (some by miscarriages or abortion). God has mercy on children and I truly believe you shall see your child one day in eternity. And even if you have aborted a baby, there is forgiveness in Christ. Christ can remove your shame and guilt. There is no condemnation for those in Christ! 

There are some women who desire to have children but it has not happened yet. I pray that God grants you that desire but trust in the sovereignty of God and know that your self-worth and identity are not in motherhood but it is in Jesus Christ. 

For all you mothers who feel like you don't measure up, you don't have to be perfect, Christ was perfect for you.

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...
