There is...

a movement among believers that is stirring and if you have not sensed it then you are probably to busy listening to the yabadabadoo song by Rich Mullins. All kidding aside we are in the midst of some exciting; and quite possibly some of the most pivotal times in the history of Christianity. This stirring that is manifesting comes not from a new cool trend or some title that a rogue pastor looking for a few bucks on the book scene came up with. No what is happening is a viral grass roots resurgence of the pure gospel message:
Matthew 22:37-39
37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

That is all it takes, no clever strategy or program just showing Gods love! At the Zion project we want to be those instruments of love and encouragement to all regardless of where a persons spiritual walk is or is not. One would be quite arrogant and proud to assume that their faith begets them some sense of entitlement or rank over another human that is in process. We love because God first loved us not because we have been given Gods happy stamp to go around and use at our whim. It is God working in and through us that reveals the very face of our creator.

Our next voyage into the adventure to unify and inspire is The Zion Project Christian Music Festival on September 20th, 2008. For more info please read the flyer below or call us at 559-760-3889.
In Faith,

We Need Your Help


Our next event The Zion Project Christian Music Festival is September 20th, 2008 at The Historic Coarsegold Village. We have a great line up of bands in store for the event. Ryan Morgan, Lost Ocean, Gatja, Set in Stone and many other local bands. It will be a day of great music, food, activities and fun for the whole family.
This is the first event of this kind that has been done in our area. It is our goal to make it a unifying event for our local churches as well as an outreach to our community.
We value all you do for Christ and we want your involvement. We are offering a sponsorship for the event for $100.00. Your sponsorship provides you with a booth at the festival that showcases your ministry.
In addition to your ministry being a sponsor of the event we are in need of volunteers for the prayer tent, creative arts booth and the many other tasks that go along with hosting a large event. Additional financial support is welcomed but more importantly we need your prayers.
It takes the work of all of us together to make our region one that is committed to loving as God loves. We look forward to seeing you on September 20th. Thank you for taking the time to learn about the vision God has placed on our hearts.
In Faith,
The Zion Project
