Serving the Community for more than 85 years, Mount Zion is steeped in rich history, heritage, and Godly principles. We are a Bible-believing, Christ-centered, community conscious church. In 1923, a delegation of community leaders decided to establish a community church, Mount Zion Missionary Baptist Church. The late Reverend Warren Nelson Fields was the first pastor and served for 4 yrs. In 1927, the Reverend Elijah Benton became pastor. Pastor Benton served for 48 yrs and 9 months. In 1977, Reverend Nathaniel Jones became pastor and served until his death in 1992. The Reverend Brehon L. Hall became pastor in 1993 and served for 6 yrs. In 1999, the Reverend Talmadge J. Thomas became pastor and continues in that capacity with many accomplishments.
In 2005, in line with the vision God has given our current pastor, we embrace The City of Zion. Zion being where the Lord resides, the future of our church will look like a city that includes a variety of additions and expansions. We thank God for his constant blessings. We thank God for his sovereignty. It is because of Him that we have a powerful, blessed and anointed ministry of teaching, preaching and praising God. Our daily mission is to “Build the Body of Christ through Prayer, Praise and Preaching”.


Mission:
Building the Body
of Christ through Prayer, Praise and Preaching
Vision:
Because excellence
is our standard,
The City of Zion
will lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ
by providing an atmosphere of
health, healing and wholeness through
prayer, praise and preaching.
Stewardship:
Because we believe
in the Lordship of Jesus Christ, that He is either Lord over all or not at all, we will support the mission and ministries of
The City of Zion with our time, talents,
spiritual gifts and
treasures.
