Ecumenical Thanksgiving Eve Worship

pilgrimsThe annual Ecumenical Festival of Thanksgiving and Praise will take place at Zion on Wednesday, November 25 at 8:00pm. Invite your neighbors and friends to attend this service of thanks that brings our community together. This is truly a faith-filled experience for all families.

Pastors from the Buffalo area churches join to give leadership to this community-wide time of worship. Choirs from many of the churches in Buffalo will combine to present anthems of thanks and praise. The handbell choirs from Zion, Buffalo Covenant, St. Johns Lutheran, and Buffalo United Methodist churches are preparing pieces to be rung in a massed choir. There will be over 130 musicians from different churches.

Nursery is provided, and offerings are used to help those in need through the Buffalo Ministerial Association.
