Table of Plenty

Table of Plenty is a free community meal served at Zion from 5:30-7:00 p.m. on the fourth Monday of every month. Guests are welcomed, seated, and served by community volunteers who have provided the meal for the evening.

Faith Explorers Update

The end of our Faith Explorers year is quickly approaching! Here are some important notes as we close out the final month:

  • Faith Explorer youth will participate in the yearly palm procession on Palm Sunday (April 13). Please meet in the fellowship hall around 8:50 AM to organize kids for the procession.
  • There will be no Faith Explorers on Sunday, April 20 in observance of the Easter holiday. If youth would like participate in the Easter procession at the beginning of worship, please meet Ministry           Coordinator Saundra in the narthex by 8:55 AM.  Kids will return to their families after the opening hymn.
  • The last day of Faith Explorers will be Sunday, April 27. Kids will help lead worship with a short program featuring the Road to Emmaus story.  Following the service, there will be an all-church breakfast potluck in the fellowship hall.  Once youth have finished eating, we will wrap up the year with a couple activities! Thank you for another incredible year of ministry together!
