Great thoughts...This is beginning to happen in our Life Groups. Keep fanning into flame a passion to live on mission...community will happen naturally because of it!

Pastor Mike,

This is a great video! I remember many years ago, we visited a church in Tulsa - Church on the Move. Loved hearing the Word preached there - amazing! There was a guest reception we attended. I asked about adult classes. They don't have any!!! You come hear the Word, then you apply to volunteer and get connected as you serve. And they serve kids there in a very big way!!

My experience at Zion has been similar. My point of greatest connection has always been within the context of serving inside a team of people - ministering to kids. I like the kids lots BUT I have a special bond with my partners that I serve with. Like Brenda, like my co counselors at Kidz Kamp. Serving at Kidz Kamp with my son Zach - priceless memories!! I used to serve with my son Keith on a Kidz Khurch team - that was really great - especially since I had people on my team like Zach Allen and Tom Switzer - more fun than Mom!!
