When was the last time you heard that about a book of the Bible?

Ignite your imagination as we wrestle with the story of the ancient church alongside our own. What is God like? What do we do in response to God's mercy? How do we live generously with our neighbors?

In preparation for our inaugural Bible study of the program year, join Pastor Potter in reading Acts in August. We will be reading one chapter each day. Also, stay tuned for details about the weekly Bible study, beginning in September: "Acts: Catching Up with the Spirit."

If you missed attending Bill's memorial service in person or online, a video of the service has been archived to our YouTube channel and can be accessed by clicking here. (Don't forget to subscribe to Zion's channel.)

Donations can still be made to the Bill Haar Memorial Fund (which can be accessed through our online giving form). Contributions will be divided among Zion's music, education, and capital improvement funds. Thank you to those who have already given generously in Bill's memory.

AA Groups meet in Katie Luther Chapel.

For other meeting opportunities, we invite you to visit the Broward AA Intergroup Website, where you will find a listing of all in-person and virtual meetings, as well as other resources to help those in immediate need.

All classes begin at 3:00 p.m. and are limited to 15 participants in person. Classes are filling up; so make sure to reserve your spot (or a spot for someone you love) very soon!

Our sponsor for the entire series of technology classes is Medicare Dave and the Senior Healthcare Team, based right here in Deerfield Beach. Dave and his team are passionate about helping seniors make educated and well-informed choices about health insurance (Medicare).

We are grateful for their sponsorship and want to do our part by spreading the word about the good work the Senior Healthcare Team is doing in our community. To learn more about what they do, visit www.MedicareDave.com.

The synod's Just Love Team invites you to join an end of summer six-week book discussion on Black Fatigue: How Racism Erodes the Mind, Body, and Spirit by Mary-Frances Winters. Winters has a distinguished history of helping organizations of all kinds address diversity, equity, and inclusion. Black fatigue is about how history, policy, practices, and unaddressed disparities generate cycles of weariness and stress that take a heavy toll on people.

The online sessions will run from August 4th through September 8th on Wednesday evenings from 7:00-8:30 pm via Zoom. A special Facebook group will also be created on the synod page for ongoing discussion. The Zoom format will include a brief presentation on the weekly reading, breakout groups in chat rooms, and a plenary sharing session.

The book can be purchased at Amazon or any bookseller. Registration is required by August 3rd. To register, click here.
