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. The goal of this meal is to provide a welcoming atmosphere where all who hunger for food or fellowship can gather and be nourished. All are welcome at this no-cost meal.
Our next meal will be on Monday, November 27 from 5:30-7:00 PM.
Here are some highlights of the events and happenings at Zion. For a full list of announcements, please click here.
Fall 2023 Worship Schedule
We have one Sunday morning service available at 9:00 AM that features Holy Communion and a livestream. As a general rule, music styles will alternate every other week with traditional services on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month and contemporary services on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month. Hub City Radio graciously accommodated our change in worship, so our radio broadcast will continue to be live at the new time on KSDN radio 930 AM/102.1 FM.
Following worship, there will be a time of fellowship and Sunday School at 10:15 AM.
Would you consider donating either the whole cost or half the cost of a Sunday broadcast? A whole Sunday service is $110.00 and one half is $55.00. You are welcome to donate in remembrance of a loved one or in celebration of a special occasion to support this ministry. To sign up as a sponsor, contact the church office at 225-6755.
