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

Click above for the latest official update on Nina's Place.

Thank you to everyone who has made, and continues to make, Nina's Place possible in our community. We have grown so much, but are especially touched by the transformation of lives in our midst because we have helped with access to some of their very basic needs.

Don't make lunch plans and come as you are! We enjoy delicious food and one another's fellowship. We each pay our own way, but everyone is invited to the table — friends, family members, and neighbors!

Nina's Place has expanded into our community including weekly distributions in one of the local senior housing developments and another in the Stanley Terrace neighborhood adjacent to Oveta McKeithen Recreational Complex. In both instances, our neighbors do not have transportation to get to Nina's Place.

If you are available during the week, and can help with the daily deliveries from Publix and/or these distributions, please reach out to Alyssa Mayer-Saldivar (our own Zion member & DBCC's executive assistant) at (954) 465-4514.

This Sunday at 11:00 a.m.

Seventh Sunday of Easter

Second Sunday Healing Service

The gospel for Easter’s seventh Sunday is always taken from the long prayer Jesus prays for his followers in John’s gospel on the night before his death, and always includes Jesus’ desire that his followers will be one as he and the Father are one. This oneness is not mere doctrinal agreement or institutional unity, but mutual abiding, interpenetrating life, mutual love, and joy. This oneness is the work of the Spirit whom we have received but also await. Come, Holy Spirit!

Sunday's bulletin can be found on the homepage of our website.

Prayers of the People on Sunday Mornings

All names submitted online (click here) by Saturday at noon will be added to Sunday's prayers of the people. In order to keep our prayer list current, all names must be resubmitted each week if you desire continued prayers.
