A New Opportunity
to Help those in Need.
NOTICE: The Men's Shelter could use some cases of bottled water. If you are able to help, please drop off at the church before church begins on Sunday or at the office Friday from 9:00am-2:00pm. Mr. Felz will be picking up after church Sunday and delivering to the shelter.
Mr. Jon Felz, one of our new
members, has brought dinner for
24-30 men to the Patterson’s Men Shelter for many years. It is always the second Sunday of each month. We are inviting your participation
in whatever way you can assist.
You may get in touch with him through the Zion office at 201-664-1325 with any questions about helping and needs.
In addition to help with meals the shelter accepts toiletries and used men’s clothing in good condition. Flynn’s Deli has stepped up to participate with us and is giving us their bread at the close of the 2nd Saturday each month.
Zion is very blessed to have a
congregation that continues to reach out and help those who are in need. It is a beautiful example of what Jesus would want us to do. Thank you!
