WEEKLY NEWS & NOTES

SEARCHING FOR MUSIC DIRECTOR / ORGANIST
We are actively searching for a Music Director / Organist to develop and lead the Music Ministry here at Zion. If you believe that you or someone you know would be perfect for this position, then we want to hear from you.  Find the details HERE or speak to Pam Hoffman or any other member of the Music Search Committee (Joy Brown, Jeff Hoffman, Darryl Engler, Butch Hengst, Linda Beegle, Jim Hoffman).

HEALING SHAWLS FROM COMPASSION & CARE TEAM
Glen Rock resident, Lucy Cadwallader, contacted Zion with the following request.   For the past 6 years, a free program with 16 volunteers called Compassion & Care Team within the York County Coroner's Office has reached out to families who have lost loved ones. They provide comforting letters, grief support, support group information as needed. Now they wish to offer Healing Shawls to mothers, grandmothers, care givers who have lost a child.  If you have free time to knit/crochet for this worthy cause, please call Lucy (717-873-4971). She will provide the yarn and pattern.  Interested? Please contact Lucy directly.  (This is unrelated to the Prayer Shawl Ministry at Zion.)

September’s Loose Change offering has been combined with Harvest Home donations and given to the South York Food Pantry.
