Church-Wide Prayer Gathering, VBS, Happy Father's Day (Pastoral Emphasis for 6/16)

 We welcome the following who recently joined on Christian Experience: Marvin & Maxine Williams

Join us on Tuesday for our Church-Wide Prayer Gathering from 7 to 8pm. Given all that's going on in the world and our lives, the topic will be “How do we as Christians keep the Faith?". Our Hospitality Ministry is hosting and everyone is invited to come out for prayer. You can submit your prayer requests online or in the prayer request box. 

Then join us for Vacation Bible School on Wednesday through Friday starting at 6pm. Dinner will be served nightly. Our theme is “We are Change Makers”. VBS has something for the entire family. On Saturday, we'll have a Community Family Fun Day from 10am to 2pm. Invite guests to come out and join us for food, fun, and fellowship. On Sunday, we'll wrap up with a special message relating to our VBS theme. Even if you haven't registered, you're are more than welcome to come out and attend.



Happy Father's Day to all the dads. Ladies and children can we give honor to the fathers. I'm thankful for all the great dads at Mt. Zion who are holding it down. 

Like Mother's Day, Father's Day can be tough for many. Whether your father is no longer living, you didn't know your father, your father was not much of a father, or even if you desire to be a father and it has not happened it, I want to encourage you that God has revealed Himself as Father and through faith in Jesus, we have received the spirit of adoption and can call God, Abba. And even if you've messed up as a dad, remember that you don't have to be perfect because Jesus was perfect for you. Keep your eyes on Jesus and He'll sanctify you to become a better father.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

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...
