Local / Regional Missions

 
“Truly, I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.”(Matthew 25:40) At Montrose Zion, we are involved in the Akron area and beyond.  We believe that God uses our missional experiences to shape us, to change our hearts, and to grow and mature our faith. We learn that being involved in missions is not merely to make us feel good about ourselves, but to serve as Jesus did…without hesitation and with a loving heart for those we touch.

We provide shawls and lap robes as tangible representations of prayer for members of the church family who are ill or grieving.  We also provide hats and scarves to various groups in the area to keep children and adults warm through the winter.
