·        New Outreach Effort for Zion Grace

We will be going out in pairs to canvas the streets surrounding our church, introducing ourselves, asking a few questions and passing out our new brochure about Zion Grace. If you are interested in participating in this effort, please contact Chip Davis.

·        Prayer List Insert

As it is very important for us to be mindful of those who need our special prayers, we are including a prayer list insert in the bulletin each week for use in our daily prayers. There are 4 ways you may be sure a person’s name will be included on the list: fill out a pray request card found in the pews, email the church at zgumc@ziongraceumc.org

, attend the Thursday morning prayer meeting with a request or call and leave a message at church 423-2118 or with Clarence Jones, 816-5452.   

 

 

·        Food Pantry Needs

Our Food Pantry is in need of a few items. Please bring peanut butter, jelly, canned peas, canned corn, Jiffy Mix, jello and regular size boxes or bags of cereal to help restock our shelves. Thank you.
