The purpose of the Encourage Table is to oversee, provide for, and encourage the congregation in its ministry of outreach and care for each other.

GUIDING SCRIPTURE:

MINISTRY TEAMS & CONTACTS:

Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds.
(Hebrews 10:24)
To encourage is to build community. Beyond the initial actions of welcoming people into the community are the ministries of friendship and support. Encouragement is the cluster of friendly attitudes and actions that forge relationships, building a diverse set of people into a community in Christ. Jesus promises to make community with us (Matthew 18:20).
Encouragement makes it possible to cross lines of race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, politics, economic class, educational level and generation. Common social skills are transformed by the presence of the Holy One into acts of discipleship whereby the body of Christ is continually built up and strengthened for mission and ministry.

Zion Nooners
Cher Theisler
On the first Wednesday of every month our Zion seniors meet in Crossroads. We begin with prayer and enjoy fellowship during lunch (bring your own lunch item – snacks and drinks are provided and we take turns bringing desserts). We then have a fun activity that everyone enjoys together, which
lasts until 1:00. The final hour is your choice as to what you want to play – board games, cards, etc. We also try to schedule outside additional outside activities. The cost is $2.00 each month. Our only objective is to have fun and enjoy the fellowship.
