Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of our Evergreen Academy families and Zion church members and friends for making this year's project a success! Whether you called it the Generosity & Gratitude Project or the Reverse Advent Calendar, we came together and are set to make a difference for homeless individuals and families in Broward County in 2022.

Thanks to your generosity with food, $145 in cash donations from church members, and an action team grant from Thrivent, we collected

Our next step is to pack the 200 bags that HOPE South Florida will pick up and deliver to a shared meal. We need your help!

Pizza and drinks will be provided. A generous number of service hours will be available for students that may need them.

Directions: West on Hillsboro Blvd. between Military Trail and Powerline Road on the north side of the street.

The next meeting of the Congregation Council will be on Sunday, January 16th at 12:30 p.m. in the Church Sanctuary immediately following worship. All Zion members are invited to attend.

We are still seeking fellow members of Zion to serve on the Congregation Council. This is an opportune moment for you to be a part of guiding our next steps. A great way for you to understand what is involved is to attend the meeting on the 16th.

God has richly blessed this congregation and we need to steward these gifts with a variety of voices, new perspectives, and creative ideas. If you believe God has a future planned for Zion, then this is an opportunity for you to serve in an important way!

The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is a global opportunity to pray for the unity of Christians. As we face new challenges and struggles today, "we know that Christ's light has not left us; it shines as brightly as ever, calling Christians everywhere to come together and follow the path of Jesus."

All those interested in worship, prayer, and fellowship around the theme of Christian unity are invited to attend with Cantor Kurt Schmidt. A reception for all in attendance will follow in the Parish Hall.

A special thank you to Alyson Littlefield (Chris Ferrara's daughter) for the new and beautiful flower arrangements adorning the seating area around our outdoor cross. Thank you, Alyson, for your gifts of time, talent, and treasure!
