Honoring Those Who Served: A Legacy of Service and Sacrifice
Today, Mount Zion Baptist Church pauses with grateful hearts to honor the brave men and women who have served our nation in the United States Armed Forces.
We remember not only their courage and dedication, but also the sacrifices made along the way: time away from loved ones, families who packed up and moved when duty called, missed celebrations and precious moments, and the commitment to place country before self. Most solemnly, we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice and laid down their lives in service to our nation. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.
We are especially proud to recognize the veterans and military families within our own Mount Zion family. Among them is Rev. Carl Pollard, pictured here, who has served our country with distinction and continues that spirit of service today through his ministry to the members of Mount Zion Baptist Church and our surrounding community.
To all who have worn the uniform, and to the families who stood beside them, Mount Zion says: Thank you. We honor you. We remember you. And we pray God’s continued blessings upon you.
Join the Mount Zion Baptist Church family each week as we explore the life-changing truth of Scripture through interactive Bible Study sessions held on Tuesdays at 12:00 p.m. and Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m. These gatherings are designed to help strengthen your faith, deepen your understanding of God’s Word, and provide practical guidance for daily living. Whether you are new to Bible study or have walked with Christ for years, you will find encouragement, spiritual growth, and meaningful fellowship as we learn, pray, and grow together. All are welcome to join us as we discover God's promises and apply His truth to our lives.
