Mt. Zion Church - Fri Oct 18

This Week From Pastor Anna Newman Real life comes at us fast and hard. It doesn’t give breaks. It doesn’t slow down. Real life doesn’t foster a lot of internal peace. But Jesus showed us the way to peace by intentionally modeling time spent in quiet time and in prayer, alone with the father. Harvest Outreach! Friday, October 25th We are blessed to be able to serve our local Pine Grove Elementary School’s Harvest Festival! We need you!!! Please sign up at the information table in the lobby. Adult Bible Study Wednesdays,  "James – Faith That Works”   - The purpose of this study is to help you face squarely James’s call for a consistent Christian life, for a practical faith. We seek to do this through nine studies each covering about half a chapter each. This may not seem like much, but James’s proverb-like compactness calls for it. You may not necessarily like James when you finish. But it is our prayer that through it God will give you a faith that works. Join us at 6:30 PM at the Ministry House. Monthly @ MTZC: Family Worship Sunday Come worship as a family through a time of sharing, caring, communion! Every FIRST Sunday of the month, we come together to worship in a special service for the whole family. Sandwich Sunday The first Sunday of each month we gather after service for a themed potluck! Join us as we gather to build our family connection with each other! The Brotherhood Men’s Breakfast Join with the guys the fourth Saturday of each month. We meet at 8 AM in the church fellowship hall. The Summit Join us for the most important service we have every 2nd Sunday night 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM.

This year, we are asking you to prayerfully consider what God would have you give to support these three community outreaches.
