Our Next Paint Night – Raise Your Glass!
We will be painting wine glasses or, if you don’t drink wine, a glass that has a bit of a rounded bottom! Anyone who wants to paint needs to bring their own glass or glasses. It will probably take a week to dry, but they could make great Christmas presents! The class is November 13 at 6:00 pm.
To join us, please sign-up in advance so we have enough materials on hand. Contact the church office at zion1778@comcast.net, or call and leave a message with your name, phone number and email address at (717) 264-2854!
If the pandemic has kept you apart from us, please help support the many missions of Zion!
