Dear Mt Zion member,

Our theme for this year’s stewardship appeal is Making Room So All Can Grow. Last year saw great improvements in community involvement, communications, and stewardship of our building resources. This year we plan to keep the momentum going by:

  • Growing in Faith: Investing in our faith formation, youth programs, and mission outreach
  • Accessible Spaces: Making our facility more welcoming, accessible, and inclusive to all
  • Welcoming in a Daycare: Implementing upgrades for tenants which will help both our church and our community thrive

Stay tuned in the weeks ahead for bulletin inserts and temple talks that will provide an in-depth look at our ministry initiatives for 2026. As part of the Appeal, you will be invited to consider increasing your offering for the coming year. Please pray about this request and do your best to respond generously as the Lord leads you.

Sunday, November 9th, has been designated Appeal Commitment Sunday. Those who attend worship that Sunday may present their Statement of Intent card at that time. If you are not able to be at church on Appeal Commitment Sunday, you also are welcome to mail your Statement of Intent card, drop it off at the church office, or pledge online at mtzionlutheran.org/pledge. People from whom we have not received a response by December 1st will be contacted to assure that everyone has had the opportunity to present their offering plan for 2026. If you are not in worship to receive the bulletin inserts, you’ll be able to find them in your weekly digital copy of the Grace Notes or on our website.

Please pray about our congregation’s mission and ministry together as we live out God’s vision for Mt Zion: that everyone we meet will come to know themselves as a reflection of God’s image, worthy of life and love!

Thank you for being an amazing part of our church family as we continue to grow in faith, community, hospitality, and justice!  

 

Together in mission,

Erik Peterson, Shauna Johnson, Joe Di Giacinto, Dave Fohr, Douglas Johnson
