LIBRARY NEWSAngels on Assignment
By Chas & Frances Hunter
There is a lot of interest and wonder in the angelic dimension. Jesus is the center of all things and the angles proclaim Him. This book is the true story of an ordinary man who has experienced an extraordinary series of events.
Come check it out!
It’s in your church library!
DIRECTORY PROOF IS IN!
A proof of the new church directory is in. We are asking that you please take a moment to double check for correct spelling of names, phone numbers, addresses etc. Please check both the pictorial directory and the address directory in the back. The proof will be placed in the Fellowship Hall and will only be here for ONE WEEK! It will be sent in on Monday, March 31st. Thank You!

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
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

AMBASSADORS IN ACTION - USA, INC
Cathy Kreis’ recent personal letter to the Zion church is signed “Your sister serving joyfully!” - and what a terrific letter it is! She tells about her Navajo work finished up in 2007, the early plans for 2008 - AND her plans for completing a Fiji documentary - she’ll go there in May to gather history, interviews and photos. She also sent “Notes from the Southwest” which is her newsletter from Kingman, AZ.
Check it out on the Missions bulletin board in the hall!
