Press On! Press Forward! Press Toward Christ Jesus

Press On, Press Forward, Press Toward Christ Jesus in His Perfection was the inspiring sermon delivered by Rev. Angelo Giles from Philippians 3:1, 7-14. Drawing from the Apostle Paul's testimony, Rev. Giles reminded us that no earthly achievement or past experience compares to the surpassing value of knowing Jesus Christ. Believers are called to let go of past failures and successes, keep their focus on Christ, and continually press forward toward spiritual growth, maturity, and the high calling God has placed on their lives.

We invite all Mount Zion Church members, friends, and website visitors to experience this powerful message and be encouraged in your walk with Christ. As Paul declared, "forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 3:13-14). Please watch the sermon video and, if you are able, enjoy the full worship service below. We pray this message strengthens your faith and inspires you to keep pressing on, pressing forward, and pressing toward Christ Jesus.

Women’s Fellowship Crafting Day: A Wonderful Time of Creativity and Fellowship

Women’s Fellowship Crafting Day: A Wonderful Time of Creativity, Celebration, and Sisterhood

The Women’s Fellowship enjoyed a truly delightful afternoon together during our recent crafting event. Hosted at Mary’s home, the ladies gathered for a time filled with creativity, laughter, and heartfelt fellowship.

One of the highlights of the day was a hands‑on project where everyone learned how to turn a simple tee‑shirt into a stylish tote bag—no sewing required. With just a pair of scissors and a little imagination, each participant created a beautiful handmade bag to take home.

The afternoon also included a special moment of celebration as the ladies honored Mother Hazel’s birthday. Everyone joined together to sing Happy Birthday and shower her with love, smiles, and warm wishes. It was a touching reminder of the joy that comes from celebrating one another in community.

Please see the photos from the event showing the wonderful memories captured throughout the day.

Events like this remind us of the blessing of fellowship and the joy that comes from spending time together in Christ-centered community. We look forward to many more gatherings that inspire creativity, connection, and spiritual growth.

Sunday Morning Worship Highlights — “Too Blessed to Be Stressed”

What a beautiful and uplifting worship experience we shared this morning at Mount Zion. Minister Phyllis Pollard delivered a powerful Word from Romans 8:26–28, reminding us that even in our moments of weakness, God is working all things together for our good. Her sermon, “Too Blessed to Be Stressed,” encouraged every heart to rest in God’s promises, trust His guidance, and walk confidently in His peace.

We invite all our website viewers to watch the Sunday morning sermon message video below and be strengthened by this timely Word. If you prefer, 


You can also watch the full worship service video and experience the praise, the fellowship, and the move of God from start to finish.

Be blessed as you watch — and remember, in Christ, you are truly too blessed to be stressed.

Sunday Morning Worship Highlights — “Everybody Needs Jesus”

What a powerful move of God in the house today. Our Mount  Zion family gathered in joyful praise as Rev. John Richards delivered a soul-stirring sermon titled “Everybody Needs Jesus,” drawn from Matthew 8:1–7.

From the moment the Word went forth, hearts were lifted and faith was renewed. Rev. Richards reminded us that no matter our journey, our struggles, or our victories, Jesus meets us with compassion, healing, and hope. Today’s worship was a beautiful reminder that His presence is still transforming lives.

Click, watch, and be blessed as you revisit this morning’s worship experience. Mount  Zion—where the Word of God continues to speak with power.
