CALL TO WORSHIP Minister
LEADER: I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my
supplications.
PEOPLE: Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call
upon Him as long as I live.
LEADER: The pains of death surrounded me, and the pangs of She laid
hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow.
PEOPLE: Then I called upon the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I
implore You, deliver my soul!”
LEADER: Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; Yes, our God is
merciful.
PEOPLE: The Lord preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He
saved me.
LEADER: Return to your rest, O my soul, For the Lord has dealt
bountifully with you.
PEOPLE: For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from
tears, and my feet from falling.
ALL: I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living. Psalm 116: 1-9 NKJV

Expressions of Gratitude Mount Zion brothers and sisters, Thank You Thank You, for all of the love support, prayers,
calls, cards, and everything else that was given while I recovered from my procedure. It is
such a blessing to be a part of family that is so supportive and cares so much for each other.
A special Thank You to the volunteers who filled in during my absence. Without your help
this place would have fallen apart. For that I am thankful. A very very special Thank you to
the Deacons, Ministers, and Pastor for their love and support and doing what they could to
ensure I was taken care of. A very very very special thank you to our first lady, Sis Mitchell.
She shows me and my children a love that is so unreal, genuine, and pure. I thank God eve-
ryday for bringing her into my life. Thank you so much Mount Zion. I love you all.
