What is your next step? A Message from Pastor Corey

As followers of Jesus, we take responsibility for our growth. We are patient with ourselves and one another. We are always in a posture of learning. God's grace is unearned, but we do not wait to experience it: we engage in what early Methodists called the means of grace. At Mt Zion, we invite you to take your next step with us.

Learn with a Class.

Groups provide safe spaces to grow in times of isolation. Learning basic Christian beliefs, diving deeper into the Bible, and exploring special topics help us walk through life together.

Explore Membership.

The Membership class covers three points about membership: our beliefs, practices, and expectations. Reach out to Pastor Corey for more information about the next class.

Use Your God-Given Gifts

Ministry is for everyone. We experience transformation when we find new ways to live out our calling by using our God-given gifts. A small act of service can have a huge impact.

Worship with Mt Zion.

There are vital elements of faith that aren’t experienced in solitude. We gather weekly to focus on God, learn from God’s Word, encourage one another, and be grounded for the week.

Be Baptized.

Baptism is a vital step in our spiritual journey. It signifies a spiritual rebirth, and becoming a member of the body of Christ. If you’re interested in being baptized, contact Pastor Corey.
