Sermon notes can be found here. Students are expected to complete 15 sermon notes during their first year and 20 notes during their second year. 2nd year students will meet with Pastor Mark in his office and will be studying the Apostles Creed, the 10 Commandments, and the Sacraments. The 1st year students will meet with Pastor Dan in the fellowship hall and will be studying the Sermon on the Mount and other Christian disciplines.

You’re welcome to join us! We begin every Wednesday evening at 6pm at Zion, followed by Anchor (youth group). Because of the timeframe of this ministry, a meal is provided by the families of our Parish. If you’d like to help us out with our midweek ministries in this way, please contact the Parish office.
