Zion Mennonite Church will be reordering our Sunday mornings for a 6-month experiment starting, June 3. Worship will begin at 9:30 followed by time for fellowship over coffee and tea in the foyer outside the sanctuary. Sunday school classes will begin at 11:15 and end at noon. Questions based on the Scripture that shaped the sermon will be provided each week by the preacher. An elective, intergenerational class will meet in the fellowship hall for anyone who wants to discuss the questions.
In preparation for the new fellowship time between worship and Sunday school, we are asking for mugs to be donated to eliminate use of paper or Styrofoam. There will be mugs available each Sunday. They will be washed at the end of Sunday school. If you want to use your own mug each week, you may label it and hang it on the mug rack in the foyer. You will be responsible to clean your own mug. We would also welcome donations of tea. And finally, we need some people to volunteer to make coffee and clean up. See Dave King to volunteer and with questions.

If you have prayer requests that you would like to have included in the weekly insert, please contact Pastor Sarah or David Gingerich by Thursday evening to have those items added. Our practice is to leave requests in for three consecutive weeks or until the event or situation has happened or resolved, whichever comes first.
