Thankfulness
Dear Zion Church,
A warm “thank you” to my church family and friends for your prayers and concern during my recent surgery. Your many acts of kindness through phone calls, cards, visits, flowers and meals brought in were greatly appreciated. I feel so blessed to have had Pastor Partelow come and pray for me while in the hospital in Ft. Collins.
God’s Blessings to all,
Alice Lass
I would like to extend a big “thanks” to Helen Schoeler and Don Rabun for teaching the adult Sunday School class over the past few weeks. I’ll be back this Sunday, and I’d like to invite you to join us for Sunday School as we dig into the Sermon on The Mount and discuss what it means to be light in a dark world.

MISSIONARY MOMENTS
Emily (Bouchard) and Tony Ottaviano are headed for Uganda on July 8 for a two week missions trip to work with an organization called Village 2 Village which ministers to orphans. They will be doing a Vacation Bible School, some teacher training, sports, recreation and electrical work on the campus facilities. They are taking this trip to see if God may be calling them to full time service there in the near future. Their financial needs for this trip total $5,000. If you would like to contribute to this effort, you can make your check out to ZION and mark “For Emily & Tony” on the memo line. The money needs to be received by THIS Sunday, June 29. The missions committee has also approved a $1,000 gift to be sent to the Ottavianos. They ask us to pray for them that God will give them safety in travel and blessing in their ministry. Emily is daughter to Alan and Sara Bouchard and attended Zion with her parents before leaving for Africa in 2000.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
Please join us Sunday, July 13th during the Sunday School hour and a portion of the Morning Worship service as the Navajo
mission team reports on God’s powerful work during this year’s Navajo mission trip.
DID YOU KNOW?
Christian education movement was founded in 1780 by Robert Raikes (1735–1811). Raikes set up a school in Gloucester to teach working children the elements of Christianity and basic literacy and arithmetic on Sundays. The idea was taken up by other denominations, and by the 19th century Sunday schools were widespread.
Today, Sunday schools continue to teach children about the Christian faith and prepare them for later commitment if they choose to take it. Stories are told and activities take place. Each Sunday, here at Zion, children have the opportunity to build their foundation on Jesus Christ and HIS teachings. Join us each Sunday starting at 9:15 am for fun, games, lessons, and crafts! Kids, don’t forget to bring you parents too!
