a great way to serve the Lord..
Interfaith Treasure House The Interfaith Treasure House helps people in need with food, clothing and other essentials. They are always looking for volunteers to help and dontations of non-perishable food items. Mission Trips During the summer, Zion youth and adults go somewhere to help families in need. These trips are gauranteed to be a great opportunity to serve others and have fun as we grow in our Christian faith! Wondering how you can help out? Contact Bree Truax at 834-4201, ext. 203. Attention Gardeners! During the summer/early fall months, as gardens begin to bless with bounty, a picnic table in the patio becomes Zion's Harvest Table for World Hunger, which features a variety of garden produce, berries, fruits, flowers - whatever is abundant. This is where youcome in. If you have garden space, consider planting a few extra rows or plants in order to help supply the Table. If you don't garden or harvest anything, consider shopping at the Table. No set prices, pay what you you wish and buy only what you want. All donations go to World Hunger, which in turn uses 94% of their funds directly to purchase food, development, and self-sufficiency education. Nothing will be wasted - any produce not taken home will go to the Treasure House the next day for food boxes or given for local need. |
For several years Zion has sent a crew of 4-6 volunteers the 1st and 2nd Saturdays of every month to the Share House (homeless shelter in Vancouver) to cook and serve a meal there. It takes about two hours. The volunteers enjoy the time there and feel it's a very worthwhile project. The list of volunteers is rotated so each person works maybe every 3rd month. If you would enjoy being a part of this project please phone the church office.
