NEW FRIENDSHIP/MEMBERSHIP CLASS
If you are interested in joining the church or just finding out about Zion, please let the pastor know. The class will meet for five weeks during the Sunday School hour at 9:15 a.m. covering the doctrine, history, and ministries of the church. It will give you a chance to become more acquainted with and involved in the church.
WEB SITE UPDATE
Many comments and concerns have been voiced about our church website and its inaccurate information. I appreciate the concern and am please to hear our members visit the site. However, due to a minor computer problem I’ve been unable to update the weekly schedules and staff pages. We are currently in the process of fixing the glitches and your patience and understanding is appreciated. We hope to have it updated soon. If you would like to help freshen up Zion’s website and are knowledgeable of webpage building please let me know. I would like to add a few nifty features to the site. ~Jennifer
