THE BUZZ AT ZION
ANNUAL PANCAKE SUPPER & RENT-A-KID FUNDRAISER
April 15th @ 5:00 pm, the Consistory will once again be serving up flapjacks for our annual youth fundraiser! Youth work teams are being assembled and will be on the auction block ready for your bidding! Cost is: $6/Adults and $4/children. Come hungry and generous to support our fine youth!
WORLAND VBS
Take the Plunge! This year’s VBS is a water park adventure. But more than that, it’s a Bible adventure our kids will LOVE! With a water park environment, our kids will be challenged to plunge into: obedience, worship, courage, faith, and service. So, mark your calendars for June 11th-15th to make a splash for Jesus.
CARPET INSTALLATION HAS BEGUN
Instillation of the new carpet has begun! The Fellowship Hall echoes of emptiness while the clatter of the crew is continual. Progress is being made and hopefully the Fellowship Hall will have all new carpet by this coming Sunday. The halls and stairways are scheduled at a later date due to shipping complications. As stated before, if you would like to contribute to this project, please make checks out to: Zion Building Fund and specify carpet on the memo line. A total of $10,020.00 has been donated to date. Thank you SO much to all who have contributed to this need!
COOKIE THANK YOU
The ladies would like to send out a heartfelt thanks to all the women who baked cookies and popped popcorn for the college and military kids. Your time and thoughtfulness is much appreciated! There were a total of 32 boxes sent making this years project a great success! Thanks also goes to the ladies who gave a their time to package the boxes.
ACQUIRE THE FIRE UPDATE
We will be packing up and leaving April 27th-29th! I have sent letters, complete with itineraries and phone numbers, to all the parents whose youth are attending the event.
