Adults
About Our Adult Ministry
Adult ministry at Zion takes an organic approach to whole life ministry. We agree with James that faith without works is dead, as they provide the lithmus to the activity of faith in the life of the Saint. At Zion, we seek to foster body, soul, and spirit through our adult ministry. We reach out to those who are young and active, as well as to our members who are young at heart and as active as they can be. We rejoice in all of their presence and celebrate the work that God does through them.
Come walk with us, grow in your faith, and maybe laugh once or twice along the way.
