Transportation Ministry
“So then, whenever we have an opportunity; let us work for the good of all, and especially for those of the family of faith.” Galatians 6:10
The Mission of the Transportation Ministry is to provide safe, reliable, convenient and affordable transportation services to members and guests of Zion to attend scheduled worship services as well as any other approved church-sponsored activities or events. Members and guests utilizing transportation services should be seniors (above 65 years of age) and/or requiring “special need” assistance. Other ministries of Zion may also request the use of the Transportation Ministry’s services provided said requested usage has been approved by either the Church Administrator or another designated official of Zion Baptist Church.
Meeting Time: Ad hoc as events are planned.
