We are called to bring the love of Christ to our community and the world.  We look forward to working with you in this great endeavor.

There are many opportunities to serve in our Lord's work here at Zion.  What a gift God has given us in you.  As Paul reminds us in I Corinthians 12, you are part of Christ's body, the church.  You have been given special talents for us in God's kingdom that fit right into God's plans for His church here at Zion.  We look forward to hearing your ideas for ministry.  You are a vital part of God's work at Zion.  As God enables us to be faithful stewards of our time, treasures and talents, God will build his kingdom by using us to bring Christ to others.  We look forward to your involvement.
