Annual Conference

There were a number of controversial subjects at Annual Conference this year. Click the link and read a report on some of the issues and give your feedback. Let's dialogue about the issues.

Marriage

What are your views on marriage? In this day and age when people are living together before or without marriage; divorcing at an increasing rate; when debates rage concerning who may get married (same sex partners); what are your views on marriage?

A great place to start the discussion would be the Bible.

Genesis 2:18 - The Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him." NIV

Genesis 2:23-24 - 23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bonesand flesh of my flesh;she shall be called 'woman,'for she was taken out of man." 24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. NIV

2 Corinthians 6:14 - Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?NIV

Matthew 19:4-6 - 4 "Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,' 5 and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'? 6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." NIV

Transition

So tell me what your feelings are about changing pastors? If you are from Mt. Zion are you anxious to meet Pastor Bill? If you are from Mt. Oak are you anxious to meet Pastor Ray (me)?

Women's Ministry

Carolyn and Betty were instrumental in creating Heart to Heart two decades ago and it has had an impact on a number of women at Mt. Zion and others. Any discussion about this ministry?

Men's Ministry

Last night might have been my last Iron to Iron at Mt. Zion. I would love to hear from others about how important Iron to Iron has been to them.
