CREATED FOR HIM
“For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”
- Colossians 1:16-17

OUR COMMUNITY
Community (or "Missional") Groups are an essential part of our church, as they provide a place where deeper fellowship and better support for one another can take place. Considering that the early church worshipped in large settings - in the synagogues - as well as in homes, we unite together similarly in order to be in deeper fellowship with God and one another. God has reconciled us not only to Himself but also to each other. This "each other" is called His Church.
OUR MISSION
The mission of Zion is to glorify God by making disciples through the gospel of Jesus Christ. God’s mission and the mission of His Church are inseparably linked. If God’s mission is to be glorified through the redemption and reconciliation of a people, the Church’s mission must orient around the glory of God and seek to glorify Him through redemption and reconciliation
CITY LIFE PROJECT
We are currently involved in a new movement in our city called the "City Life Project". We are joining with other churches in the area with the common goal of spiritual renewal in Brooklyn. God influences the world through his people, and He gives to us so He can give through us. We would love for you to be a part of this city-wide initiative to help bring God's Kingdom here, now.
