ELDERBERRIES

Elderberries is a monthly gathering of seniors age 65+, or however you choose to define yourself!  These meetings are generally held on the 4^th Thursday, beginning at 2:00 in the afternoon, and include devotions, a program, and refreshments.  Zion seniors share in presenting the devotions.  Programs are on a variety of topics.  Some may provide information which is of specific interest or benefit to seniors, while others are inspirational or simply entertaining.  At each meeting we also celebrate with those who are observing a birthday.  We close the year with a special Christmas luncheon and music presented by high school students.  All are welcome to attend these meetings.
