Dear Parents/Guardians,
It is our goal to partner with parents in teaching our youth to live an excellent life that is pleasing to God and empowered by His spirit.
YOUTH MINISTRY
The Purpose of the Youth Ministry…
is to bring youth into a closer relationship with Jesus and one another. We will mentor and guide youth through this time of spiritual formation and help them and their families adapt the teachings of Jesus (Love, Mercy and Grace) so that they may develop a deeper committed relationship with Jesus. It is through that purpose that our vision is to provide a quality Youth Ministry program by providing the tools for youth to explore, expand and build their faith. We will continue to challenge and encourage youth to commit their lives to Christ. We offer Children's Church which is geared towards the youth ages 5-12. Children's Church is offered on the first three Sundays of the month. Fourth Sundays are designated youth Sundays, a time in which we all worship together in the main Sanctuary and the youth play vital roles in the service. Growing in Grace is a youth ministry geared towards young ladies up to age 18. We also have have a Young Men's Mentoring Program which is the counterpart to the Growing in Grace Ministry.
Parent/Child Dedication
Parent/Child Dedication The importance of raising your child in the discipline of Biblical principles is written in Proverbs 22:6; Deuteronomy 6:6-7; Ephesians 6:4.
Mount Zion defines Parent/Child Dedication as the parental willingness to partner with God and the Church to raise your child. We believe dedication is not a sacrament; it cannot impart grace or salvation to your child. Salvation only comes through Jesus Christ as each person recognizes his or her sinfulness and receives forgiveness and eternal life through Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. The scriptural root for this type of dedication is found in 1 Samuel 1:27-28 I prayed for this child, and the Lord granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the Lord. For his whole life he will be given over to the Lord. Dedication services are officiated by Pastor Jackson and are held quarterly during the Sunday Morning Service.
