COMMUNITY
Mt. Zion realizes that we love best when we are part of a community. It is our privilege to uplift our neighbors and to use our time, talents, and treasures for the good of everyone – not just our own people.
Relay for Life
Mt. Zion always makes a strong showing at this annual event, which celebrates the lives of cancer survivors and helps continue the fight against the disease. Each year, we raise thousands of dollars for research and relief, thanks to a faithful group of volunteers and coordinators. At the event, we make sure that we have a group that's active on the track throughout the day and night, holding vigil for all those who have battled and lost – and for those who have battled and won.
Catawba County's Relay for Life happens in late May or early June of each year.
Scout troop #235
For many decades, Mt. Zion has supported the efforts to support young men and teach them practical skills and good character. Our local scout troop gathers in a stone building constructed through the labor of former members who were masons and builders. Today, young men and women make up our Scout troop which meets on Monday evenings.
