The Loose Change offering plate is available every Sunday. At the end of the month, the total collected for that month will be sent to the chosen organization. Our loose change collection for March will benefit the Arthur Hufnagel Glen Rock Public Library. The library has been closed for over a year due to repairs needed to the building. To date, $100,000 of the $140,000 goal set has been raised through donations and fundraisers.

Announcements for the weekly bulletin are due to the office by early Tuesday morning so bulletin work can be completed by the end of the day on Tuesday. This schedule allows time for the bulletin to be sent to the presiding pastor for the upcoming week and allows the website committee time to post the bulletin on Zion’s website.
