January 29 — Annual Ministry Report
9:30 am – in the Sanctuary

January 29 — RIC Sunday
This is an opportunity to celebrate the witness to God’s love
for all persons... Our liturgy on this day will reflect our love for all who enter our doors
and call Mt. Zion Lutheran Church their faith community.

We are a Reconciling in Christ Congregation...
So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see everything has become new! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation...
—2 Corinthians 5:17-18
