This includes offering Worship services, religious education, fellowship events, assistance to the needy, counseling for the grieving, community care, and the stewardship of creation.

Worship
We have active worship teams at Zion. Among these are: the Children’s Choir; the Adult Choir; the Praise Team, and those offering spiritual education. In addition, people can serve as Ushers, Assisting Ministers, Acolytes, and in many other worship areas.
