Dear Mt. Zion Family & Friends,

This Lent, we invite you to journey with us as we begin our new sermon series, Among the trees, A Lenten Journey of Growth and Grace.

Spring is in the air, at least that’s what I tell myself, although I know that there’s nothing for sure with the weather. Even if we are still hoping and waiting for more snow, there are signs of new life all around us. The trees are waking up to the possibility of new life after a brutal winter. This Lent we are going to look at the trees to teach us their stories and spiritual lessons showing us how even the ordinary, overlooked, or wounded trees can bear fruit, offer shelter, and reflect God’s beauty. From the walnut tree that reminds us to look beneath the surface, to the maple tree that teaches us sweetness can emerge from pain, to the redwood that grows strong in connection with others, each week offers a tangible invitation to see God’s work in creation and in our own hearts.

This series is more than a study of trees, it’s a reminder that God works in every part of life, turning what is gnarled or hidden into something beautiful, life-giving, and lasting. Come and join us, as together we walk Among The Trees.

Yours In Christ,

Pastor Daniel Mejia
