Mount Zion Baptist Church is a place centered on the Word of God and filled with amazing people.. Come join in what is happening at Mount Zion!
Every worship service at Mt. Zion starts the same way, with a welcome and prayer. We invite God to meet with us and confess our need to hear from Him. We pray that our worship would be pleasing and acceptable to Him.
Our corporate worship is a blend of traditional and contemporary music. We have a wide variety of musical styles. (Ever sing to dulcimers?) But when it comes to corporate worship, here’s what matters most: participation. We want God’s people to join their voices together to praise God and build up one another.
We strive to obey the command of the Apostle Paul in Colossians 3:15, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.”
We’d love to have your voice join with ours to give praise to our Savior.
