New BEAUTIFUL Wall Art in the Jr. High --- Thank you Mr. Brackman!


Final Walk-a-thon/Christmas Project Report:
The entire junior high staff would like to thank you for your support with the Walk-a-thon and Operation Christmas Child. Early last week Mrs. Murrary was able to deliver 103 boxes to a designated drop off location at First Baptist Church on Muegge Rd. It was awesome to see how many large boxes they already had packed to ship off, and that our shipment alone would fill 5 more large boxes. They were impressed with our service project and fantastic support.  With the incredible about of donations gathered at the Walk-a-thon we were also able to make and one time donation of $1500 to Operation Christmas Child!  

It was a blessing to work with and see other Christian churches in the area unite for a great cause. As we pray for peace and safety in our community and for our neighbors, I choose to focus on what makes us similar. We are brothers and sisters in Christ!






Thanksgiving Food Drive:

Zion families donated enough at our Thanksgiving food drive to deliver 20 Turkey dinner boxes to the Seminarian families. In addition, the student council members were able to fill the Seminary's food bank shelves with over 2000+ food items.






























I pray you have a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration surrounded with family and loved ones.  I am blessed to have family close by to celebrate, both mine and my husbands!  I love the extra time we are given (off of school) to reflect on the amazing Lord and Father we have who has showered blessings on us day after day!
The Lord Bless You and Keep You this Thanksgiving,
