Food Packaging Event On Sunday, April 17, Trinity Hall will be transformed into a food packaging machine! Our goal for this day is to package 20,000 meals for distribution through OutReach International Kids Care. Sunday school students will be doing some packing during their regular Sunday school time. At 9:30 and 11:30, the entire congregation is invited to sign up for a slot and help with the project. If students want to sign up for an extra shift before or after Sunday school they must have a parent sign up to work with them. Sign up for your slot now at ZionBuffalo.org/Change.
Vacation Bible School This summer on Main Street, kids will be drawn into stories Jesus told about everyday people in everyday situations. But His stories were anything but ordinary! Jesus turned lives upside down and hearts inside out through parables that challenged people to look at themselves and others in new and unexpected ways.
Summer Childcare at Zion Day Camp If you are looking for a super-fun care option for your elementary age children this summer, Zion Day Camp (aka ZDC) is worth your consideration. ZDC is a summer program at Zion for children who have just finished Kindergarten, through 12 years old, and is open weekdays throughout the summer from 6:30am until 6pm. Daily activities include free time and snacks, but Bible stories, structured games, and creative projects are also part of the schedule. This is separate from the one-week Vacation Bible School program that runs the first week of summer. Registration is on a first come, first served basis, so be sure to reserve a spot for your child today! The handbook, including registration forms, is available at ZionBuffalo.org/ZDC and at the information desk. Please contact Holly or Roxie for details or if you have questions.
So come join us on Main Street for an inside-out, upside-down experience like no other…and let Jesus make a difference in YOU!
Calendar Note April Schedule is included in the church calendar on pages 10-11.
