Who, What, and Where: Holiday Edition

From December 26th to January 9th, Cantor Kurt Schmidt will be on vacation (out of the office) and Pastor David Potter will be available for pastoral emergencies only. We appreciate this opportunity for rest and "recharging" after a busy holiday season.

There will be no e-mail newsletter sent next week. Also, weekday activities (Monday @ 9:59, Lions' Den Bible Study, Wednesday Prayer at the End of the Day) will be suspended until the week of January 10th.


Worship will continue on Sundays both livestreamed and in-person at 11:00 a.m. following the safety protocol we have established (mandatory masks, temperature checks, and physical distancing).

The Youth Empowerment Project (YEP) will reconvene in 2021 on the 2nd and 4th Sundays at 4:00 p.m. on Zoom.

We will be accepting donations for the Reverse Advent Calendar through the end of the year. For the complete list, click here.
2021: Commitment, Renewal, and Growth
Beginning January 1st - 30 Day Prayer Walk for the Neighborhood
Are you a daily walker, jogger, or runner? If the answer is "yes," then commit to 30 days of praying for your neighborhood. In the words of Navigators (a discipleship resource), "There is something deep and transformational that happens when we walk the streets of our community while conversing with God."

We invite you to participate in this opportunity to walk, pray, pay attention, and listen. We believe that God's spirit is transforming our neighborhoods and we want to connect with the Spirit's work!

Sunday, January 10th at Noon - In-Person Town Hall
Following worship, join us in the Church Sanctuary to
  • Receive your 2020 Giving Statements
  • Hear about the state of the Church (physically and spiritually)
  • Praise stories of "faith in action" in 2020
  • Ask questions and get answers about our ongoing financial status
  • Receive your willing-to-grow card (time, talent, and treasure) for the first half of 2021 - see more below

Zion's leadership team has committed to host quarterly in-person town hall meetings in order to facilitate transparent communication and increase engagement among the shareholders of the mission and ministry at Zion. If you've ever found yourself saying "Well, I didn't know that" about something at Zion, this is your opportunity to come, listen, and be heard.

21 Days of Prayer for Congregational Renewal & Growth
At the in-person town hall on January 10th, all Zion members will receive a willing-to-grow card in order to prayerfully commit time, talent, and treasure to Zion for the first half of 2021. All willing-to-grow cards will be due on or before Sunday, January 31st, so that we can plan accordingly.

During the 21 days in between the distribution and collection of the willing-to-grow cards, Pastor Potter will be leading us in a time of prayer for congregational renewal and growth. It is paramount that we listen to God as a congregation during this time in order to faithfully discern what God wants the future of Zion to be, and how God is calling us individually to be a part of it. Stay tuned for more information!
