Zion Equity Team Umbrella
Zion’s Equity Team is divided into four teams to best address the concerns and issues facing our church and community. These teams are:
- Neighborhood Engagement Team (NET) works at being present in our neighborhoods as well as inviting others into a welcoming community where God’s grace is shared and faith is deepened.
- Creation Care Team seeks to build awareness among our congregation and as individuals to create a more sustainable, just, and equitable community. As a congregation, we strive to take action to better care for God’s Creation.
- Social Justice Team seeks to listen, learn, and advocate for a more just and equitable community. As a congregation, our mission is to find strength in our diversity, embrace cultural differences, and be united by our common humanity.
- Addiction Awareness Ministry seeks to offer a safe place of hope, support, and advocacy for those seeking recovery so that we can build resilience and thrive in our lives and communities. The Zion Church Council also approved a partnership with The Center of Addiction and Faith, an organization dedicated to helping faith communities perform this role.
For more information about these teams and how you can be a part of one or all, contact Pastor Connie Tiede.
