Call Process 2020

Search for a New Pastor

Zion leadership has been working hard and continuously behind the scenes to the our Call Process.  Conversations with Bishop Lecakes, Pastor Chip Froehlich, Pastor Mark Mueller and other in the Atlantic District have informed this plan that is robust, intentional, and yet has a fast turn-around.  It's going to be a very busy spring at Zion!  

​

All are invited to attend!  While we prepare for the joy of Easter, as a faith community we also are preparing for the next chapter in our
long history. Thank you to everyone who attended Workshop #1. Almost fifty folks participated in a dynamic and thoughtful discussion on:
•what Zion does well
•what we need to grow
•what opportunities lie ahead of us

 We are thankful that Pastor Chip is with us to help us discern and reaffirm our purpose and mission.
 Pastor Chip challenged us to think about three words "CONNECT, GROW, LIVE" and how they relate and direct us in what our purpose and mission is here at Zion.
