Successful Boys Summer Camp, Church Family Meeting, Prayer Rally (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/19)

Rejoicing in New Life in Christ

We are thrilled to share that Jeremiah Sanon (age 17) has trusted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and has come forward as a candidate for baptism.

There is no greater reason to celebrate than seeing someone place their faith in Christ. We thank God for His saving grace in Jeremiah's life and look forward to celebrating with him as he publicly professes his faith through baptism.

Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he begins this exciting new chapter of following Christ.


A Successful First Mt. Zion Boys Summer Camp

This week marked an exciting milestone for our church as the Mt. Zion Men's Ministry, Male Choir, and Deacons partnered together to host our first-ever 3-Day Boys Summer Camp for young men in grades 6–12.

Ten young men participated in a meaningful experience designed to help them grow spiritually, mentally, physically, and personally. Throughout the camp, they participated in:

  • Daily devotionals
  • Physical fitness activities
  • Computer programming instruction
  • Leadership sessions led by community leaders
  • Service project planning
  • Biblical teaching on developing godly character

One of the highlights of the week was being able to provide Chromebooks to our rising seniors to help support them as they prepare for the next stage of their education.

This camp was only possible because of the many faithful men who generously gave their time, knowledge, and encouragement to invest in the next generation. We extend our heartfelt thanks to every coach, session leader, volunteer, and supporter who helped make this inaugural camp such a tremendous success.

We especially want to recognize Bert Dupree, Corey Smith, and Charles Howard for their outstanding leadership and countless hours of planning and coordination.

We also commend the young men who attended. Their enthusiasm, willingness to learn, and positive attitudes made the week a joy for everyone involved.

As we celebrate what God has done through this first camp, we are already looking forward to many more opportunities to disciple and encourage young men in the years to come.


Church Family Meeting Next Sunday

All Mt. Zion members are encouraged to remain after next Sunday's worship service for our Church Family Meeting.

These meetings are an important opportunity to hear ministry updates, celebrate what God is doing in our church, and discuss the work that lies ahead. We hope every member will make plans to attend as we continue moving forward together in unity and purpose.

Church-Wide Prayer Rally
