Dear Zion Family,

Get ready for the next session of the State of Your Church Course Curriculum kicking off tonight Monday, September 29, 2025 @8 PM (EST)! We are excited to welcome Dr. Yabo Beysolow, Ms. Rachel Highsmith, and Min. Cliff Barnett Jr. as the Presenters for the session.

Monday night’s class will be centered on the 3rd Dimension of Flourishing People: Health. This dimension explores flourishing through the lens of overall physical and mental health.

“The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God.”

(Psalms 92:12-13 NIV; and see Book of Discipline, Page 400).
