MLK Weekend Recap, Church Clean Up, Church Family Meeting (Pastoral Emphasis for 1/22)

Thanks to everyone who participated and served at our MLK Walk for Hope. Here's a summary of what God enabled us to do: 
  • Over 50 boxes of donations were received 
  • 368 Participants-279 in Realm and 89 registered in person 
  • 30+ Volunteers, including Mt. Zion members (Children's, Deacons,, Hospitality, IT, Security, Ushers, Kim Roberts, Shebbie Coppage & MLK Planning Committee Members - Val Anderson, Laurie Anderson, and Tam Jones ) 
  • 28 Hope Cards were made in the children's activity area. The cards will be distributed to children's hospitals and homeless shelters by the Hope for Kids organization. 
Part of our mission is to Serve the Community. The church gathers to worship on Sundays and then scatters into the community during the week to be a witness for Christ. It's so nice to see our members out serving in their local communities. Check out this MLK Weekend Recap Video:

We have a Church Clean Up on Sat., 1/28, from 9 - 12. All cleaning products will be provided. You don't have to stay the entire time. All are welcome! 

Our first Church Family Meeting for the year will be next Sunday, right after the church service. We will look back on what God blessed us to do last year, and we'll look forward to what God will have us do this year. All members are invited to attend. You will not want to miss it. A special Webex meeting link will be sent out this week for those attending virtually. 


We have a very special Thank You Video from the Love From Above ministry:

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.

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 ...
