Pastor’s Article
“Where there is no vision, the people perish”
~ Proverbs 29:18 ~
On Homecoming Day, October 4 at 10:00am, we will celebrate
158 years of Ministry at Mt. Zion. Our church was founded &
constituted as a church on October 7, 1857. Hundreds have
heard the gospel & been saved through their receiving the
gospel. One hundred fifty eight years ago a group of believers
came together to form Mt. Zion Baptist Church. All were from
different backgrounds, but all wanted to worship & serve the
Lord. We have supported and sent out missionaries. We have
a tremendous heritage.
But what about our future? We need every believer to pray, to
participate and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. Everyone
of us must give, go & grow in our walk with God. Mt. Zion is
not a building, it is a group of people coming together to be
saved by the Lord, serve the Lord & share the Lord. You are
invited to reaffirm your membership at Mt. Zion with your
attendance on Homecoming Day! Come back to church! God
will Bless you! There is room for you.
God bless you, I love you,
Pastor Key
