VBS averaged almost 180 children per day with a high day over 200 with about 30 receiving Christ as Savior. We met many folks at our Red Lion Street Festival booth in August. We were especially blessed by having Missionary to Kenya, Robert Mickey, who told the story of how God spared him, his family, and his church during the tribal uprising in the Spring.
We’ve been studying a series on Wednesday nights on “The Prayers of Jesus Christ” and finished a series in Adult Sunday School class on “Faithful Men.”
This Fall, we are starting Public School Released-Time Bible Studies in both the Chanceford Elementary School and the Red Lion High School. Times to be announced. We also have a Bible study in the Red Lion Junior High on Mondays. If you are interested in your child attending these Bible enrichment classes, call our office at 927-9227 ext 2 or ask for Pastor Chris.
We have re-opened the Mt. Zion School of Theology with 4 classes including:1 Corinthians, Cults and World Religions, Music in the Church, and Women of the Bible I. In September, we kick-off our Master’s Club, Youth, and Home School Meetings for the year. Sat., Sept. 13 will be our annual Master’s Club Bike Rodeo.

In a day when churches nationwide are in a state of flux, giving-in to new philosophy’s of purpose-driven ministry and changing doctrines, Mt. Zion Baptist Church stands and faces the wind to remain the way we have always been—“Church, the way it used to be.” We stress solid Bible preaching and teaching, emphasize individual and family living for Christ, focus on reaching out to our community and the world with the Gospel, and try to guard against the influx of worldliness into the church. If you are looking for this kind of church, do something about it. Serving Christ can be fresh and exciting again. Come and worship with us this Sunday.
