Shepherding Ministry
Now is the time to make that step to join the Shepherding Ministry Team. Recently, as I have spoken with some of our “flock”, I have had a few requests for help with basic needs around the house. By asking around, making phone calls, and basic trial and error, I have been able to meet those needs. However, I would like to be able to respond to needs more promptly and effectively… SO…….I would like to build a “directory” of willing workers who have skills to share with others who need assistance.
You don’t have to be a master carpenter, or landscape planner, a gourmet chef, or a prestigious plumber…sometimes it may be as simple as moving some heavy furniture, cleaning up a yard, unclogging a drain, or maybe building a ramp …or helping to fix some meals before surgery that could be frozen for easy use after surgery. There are endless possibilities … just think what we could do as a team!
So … if you have a gift or skill that you could share, please prayerfully consider this opportunity to serve Your Lord. You can call me at 257-2713 x13 …… or e-mail me at shepherdzion@yahoo.com … or drop a note in my mailbox in the office … or just stop and talk to me!
And if you are one who is need of some help, please let me know in the same way.
Thank You for your response to this need,

Available Drivers?
All of us have busy lives and appointments to get to … doctors, therapy, procedures, etc, and we rearrange our schedules and go. For some of us, however, this presents a bigger problem … HOW will we get there? Transportation is not always available or is too expensive …
I would like to create a list of available drivers who would be willing to transport those in need to and from appointments. If this is something that you could provide occasionally, please prayerfully consider this opportunity to be the “hands and feet” (and Wheels!) of Jesus.
Contact Sherri Baumann, Shepherding Ministry, via the church office 257-2713 or e-mail – Shepherdzion@yahoo.com
