Weekly News from Zion and our Ministries Under the Cross: Evergreen Academy & Nina's Place

March 20, 2024

As Cantor Kurt Schmidt returns tonight from a few days away from the office, we are reminded of this popular social media post first shared last year. As we approach Holy Week, what is it you need from this time? What do you need from your church? What do you need from Jesus?

Holy Week is an opportunity to participate in the drama of the last week of Jesus' life – the highs, lows, and everything in between. We hope you will "just show up," beginning this Sunday.

Opportunities to "Just Show Up"

Papageno's Wine & Provisions, a specialty food store in Fort Lauderdale, is hosting a fundraiser for Deerfield Beach Community Cares tomorrow, March 21st from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Let's Get Shayne to LSM

One of our beloved, Shayne Clancy, has been accepted to participate in Lutheran Summer Music, the national Lutheran high school music camp, held from June 30 to July 28 at Valparaiso University in Indiana. We are asking, together with Shayne, for contributions toward a matching grant of $500 from Zion’s scholarship fund and $500 from LSM. To contribute, mark an envelope on Sunday morning “Shayne” and leave it in the offering plate, or give to the Peth Scholarship Fund on Zion’s online giving form.
