ABOUT US
ABOUT ZION'S TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH:
Our church motto is "A Living Witness of God's Glory" and it is founded upon a combination of 1 Corinthians 10:31 and Acts 1:6-8. As we desire for the whole world to come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior by seeking repentance of their sins and belief in Jesus Christ. We are commanded by God in Scripture to do all things for His Glory and only His glory and that we are to be a living witness of Him no matter where we are in the world or what we are going through. From the beginning of your journey in Christ to the completion of your joy when you enter Heave, Zion's Tabernacle wants to be a helper in helping you to become "A Living Witness of God's Glory!"
