In 2009, the UMM aspires to sponsor additional opportunities for Christian fellowship and service to Mt. Zion. For all events, we will strive to dispel the myth that the UMM is only for a select group of men over 50 with at least twenty years of church membership. The UMM is for all men and boys of Mt. Zion!

UMM officers are: Will Scott, president;
Jim Morrill, Vice president;
Brian Cornell, Treasurer;
Chuck Sehman, Chaplain.
