Serve in the Church

Come grow with us. No two faith journeys are ever alike. They take lots of twists and turns, but He will be with you every step of the way.

Serving in the Church

Church members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as serving as a cleaning angel, to visiting home and hospital-bound Zion members.
