June Special Benevolence Offering: Lancaster Theological Seminary
The Missions Committee has designated the Special Benevolence Offering for June to provide financial assistance for Lancaster Theological Seminary. By continuing to be an essential partner, we help the Seminary provide educational programs for lay leaders and pastoral leadership. Please help Mt Zion to continue to be an essential partner in the work of the Seminary.
Mt. Zion’s Lakota Workcamp ~ 2010Currently there are seven people signed up to participate in this year’s trip to Cherry Creek, South Dakota. They will begin their caravan by car and truck on July 16th with overnight stops in Champaign, Ill. and Sioux Falls, S.D. Contacts have been made to UCC churches in the area in the hope of hosting the group overnight. They expect to arrive in Cherry Creek on the 18th to begin a week of work, fellowship and Bible School. Thank you to Bob Bievenour for coordinating this project.
