Summer Nursery Assistance
Looking for a rewarding experience? When some of the regular nursery helpers
take family vacations, we need to replace them in the ZF Nursery. Please sign up
at the Nursery counter if you are willing to share a Sunday morning helping with
the care of our little ones. It doesn’t require a lot of talent, just some loving
patience. And hugs are an extra bonus!
We are again participating in the Life Centers' Bottles
for Babies campaign. What better way to celebrate the
gift of motherhood than by helping to save the lives of
unborn babies and share Christ with their mothers. If
you’d like to participate, here’s what you should do:
• Pick up your family’s baby bottle today from the
display in the lobby.
• Take your bottle home and have fun filling it with
cash or a check.
• Return your bottle to the Welcome Center next
Sunday.
The O.W.L.S. (Older Wiser Loving Saints) are still
collecting diapers for Life Centers. All sizes of diapers
are appreciated. The collection box is located near the
Welcome Center.
Special Needs Ministry
Did you know that Zionsville Fellowship has a Special Needs Ministry? This Sunday
School class meets at the regular teaching time every Sunday. Our intent is to provide
Biblical teaching and great fellowship to individuals with special needs. We will be
teaching a special summer curriculum studying people of the Bible. Volunteers are
needed to portray Biblical figures. We are asking for 15 minutes of your time on a
Sunday morning during the teaching time, beginning in June and ending in August. If
you are interested in volunteering for just one Sunday or for several Sundays, please call
Rachel Beauchamp at 873-3321.
Fort Wilderness Family Camp—July 18-24, 2009
For more than 20 years, many families from Zionsville Fellowship have traveled to Fort Wilderness to spend a
week together in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin. Family Camp offers a wonderful opportunity for family togetherness, fun activities, fellowship, and spiritual
growth. If you did not pre-register while at camp this past July, there are rustic cabins (no baths) still available as well as camp sites. You can bring your own tent, pop-up camper
or RV, or you can rent a 20-foot pop-up camper (sleeps 6) or a 26-foot hard-side camper (sleeps 6-8 with private bath). To register or to pick up additional information about
Fort, please see the display at the Welcome Center. REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS DECEMBER 1. After December 1, Fort will hold open registrations to fill the remaining
vacancies. For additional questions, please contact Mark Hartman at 846-8893 or email "markhartman at gmail dot com".
Food Pantry Items — The food pantry at
Neighborhood Fellowship needs items to share with
those in need within their local church body. Most
requested items include peanut butter, meals in a
can, canned meat and canned fruit, although any
donated items will be appreciated. Just drop off items
in the box near the Welcome Center.
Sunday Afternoon Meals — Servers are still needed for next Sunday, June 28, as
well as dates in July, August, and September to assist with the Sunday afternoon meal at Neighborhood
Fellowship. They need at least 4-6 people to serve each Sunday. Please sign up at the Welcome Center
or contact Muriel Dykema @ 873-5545.
Box Tops for Education — The students at Neighborhood Academy are
collecting General Mills Box Tops for Education as well as Campbell’s Soup Labels for Education. These
items will be used to obtain items for the school as well as save money for a field trip. Drop off your
labels and box tops in the canister that is located at the Welcome Center. There is also a list of
participating brands for you to check.
Heartland Fellows News
If you would like to keep up with the Fellows news, please
add your email to the list at the Welcome Center and we
will email periodic updates to you. Also, visit us at our

Sunday Morning Prayer with Elders
If you are seeking wisdom, strength, comfort,
relational restoration, or have any other need
that you would like the Elders to pray for, please join them in the
chapel this morning at the
conclusion of the morning services.
Building Use
Please note that if you would like to use the church building for any purpose, a Building Use Form needs
to be completed and turned into Ka Freeman in the office. Ka will then check the master schedule to make sure the space you are requesting is available. Each event is subject to Deacon or Elder approval.
