THE BUZZ AT ZION
TAKE THE PLUNGE VBS
Hang on to your life preserver! The VBS crew at Zion is preparing for a VBS water park adventure. They are getting ready to Take the Plunge and Make a Splash with Jesus! As kids move from one whirlwind activity to the next, they will be soaking up lessons that will last for a life time.
Kids will Take the Plunge at Raise the reef Praises, the Snack Shack, Craft-Away Cove, Oceans of Motion, and Bibleland Bay. It will be a week of fun and excitement sure to make a splash with kids of all ages. The twisting and turning will begin each day at 9:00am and end at 11:30 am, June 11-15, right here at Zion Church.
Now dive into the excitement and tell all your friends!
GUATEMALA PROJECT THANKS
I have just read of your generosity for the projector and computer for the Puralah Pastor’s Training Center. I have notified Mario Enriquez and he shares in my appreciation and excitement. Margaret and I are scheduled to go to Guatemala for the graduation ceremonies at Puralah on November 15-17 as well as doing leadership seminars in Guatemala City. We are honored to be able to deliver the equipment on behalf of Zion Church. Prayerfully I will be able to come to Worland in early December to report to you on my Guatemala and India trips, as well as other ministries I have been involved in with your support and prayers. Again, thanks for your continued heart for missions around the globe.

TONS OF THANKS
Dear Women of Zion,
My heart was filled with wonderful gladness when I received a
package several days ago in the mail. I had read in the newsletter that many of you were baking cookies for students and so I began waiting in anticipation for my large brown box filled with popcorn and goodies. Thank you for the encouragement and the calories! As the semester tests approach and term papers are due here in Dallas it is nice to receive such a wonderful pick-me-up. God bless y'all (I do live in Texas) and may God continue to bless Zion!
Love and Blessings,
Jason W. Snyder
Dear Ladies of the Women’s Ministry,
Thank you so much for the goody box you sent of cookies, popcorn, and candy. We appreciate it so much, and have truly enjoyed it. It is so nice to have the support of church members at home!
Thank you again, Angie Miller & April Rabun
