Excerpt from the 2008 Annual Report...

The new building has brought about a lot of extra work for the custodian’s here at Zion and we are blessed to have Dick and Brent Johnson as well as their families take on those responsibility’s.

Thanks!! Dick, Brent, and your families for your service to Zion.
 
I would like to thank all of the dedicated members of the B&P committee for their hard work this year. We wouldn’t be able to accomplish all of the needs around Zion without the gifted members of this committee willing to give of their time and talent.
 
Thanks Again!!
