ZION E-NEWS (8-22-24)

AS WE GATHER in person for Worship each Sunday at 9:30am the service can also be viewed on our website at zionreformed.online.church and streaming on our YouTube channel.  As of August 31st, Zion’s morning service will no longer be broadcasted on WCET and WKTV, two local public television stations. However, our services will continue to be live-streamed through our website and YouTube. If you need any assistance in learning how to access the services through those sites, please call the church office and someone will be happy to show you.

NEW SERMON SERIES beginning September 8!

PRAYER REQUEST: Continue to pray for those in our congregation who deal with ongoing health issues.

WE WILL be celebrating the sacrament of communion together this Sunday, August 25th. We invite you to take some time to reflect and prepare your hearts as we come to this beautiful table of grace. In response to God’s gift of grace to us, we will give an offering for Zion’s benevolence fund after communion. Benevolence funds are used in a variety of ways to come alongside people in our Zion family and in our local community. One of the ways we are able to meet local needs is through CarePortal. Local agencies can post specific needs to the CarePortal technology platform, and we are able to respond as we are able. Recently we were able to purchase cribs for a local mom in need. We are grateful for your continued generosity!
