Each week is a stand-alone lesson; come to one or all. “Travel” to Egypt and experience Joseph’s journey from a prison to the palace. Adults and children will learn side by side as families build pyramids, jostle through the marketplace, make mud bricks and join Joseph on the adventure of his life.

Christian Assistance Ministries (CAM)

With the economic uncertainties in our country, the continual financial woes placed on families, and the ever-increasing number of clients coming to CAM, the volunteers face an uphill battle that can only be conquered by increased support from us. Right now,  CAM, is witnessing a 43% increase in clients being seen on a daily basis. This increase takes their new average to serving about 150 families per day!

How can we help? Here is a list of especially needed items right now. Zion collects these items on a continual basis in our mail room. As needed, volunteers from the church deliver them to CAM (behind University Methodist Church on DeZavala at Vance Jackson at DeZavala).

•Men’s jeans/pants, especially sizes 30-35
•Shoes, especially tennis shoes and work boots
•Winter wear – gloves, jackets, sweaters
•Men’s underwear, boxers especially size 32/34
•Women’s underwear, bras, and socks
•Men’s T-shirts (size medium)
•Children’s clothing, especially boys’ pants/jeans
